Just subscribing to this thread. My twins, Matthew & Ryan, were born March 1st 2011.

Congratulations on your beautiful twin boys!!

My daughter was due on the 1st but born on the 15th! :)

Congratulations ladies!!!!

Thought id stick my head in here too. My DD was born on the 2nd March 2011.. Jon Bon Jovi's birthday lol (thats what i was aiming for :lol:)

Hope, what gestation were your little ones?

Heya Beck :)

hey SS! where is everyone else? :)

Well, I'm still in hospital, but hopefully be home today!

Hope they let you go home today! hope alls going well.

HI Beckoes, ShootingStar & sconeonamission

Congratulations to you all on your new additions. How exciting!!!

SS: My boys were at 37weeks and 1 day. I still hadn't gone into labour so my OB decided to put me in for a C-Sect, plus the boys were both still in the breech position.

Sconeonamission: Hope you get to go home today. All the best.

Beckoes: That was a bit of a wait for you. Expecting to go on the 1st but having to wait to the 15th.

They must be all busy mummies Beck ;)

Hope.. oh good on you making it that far with twins. How are you going with them? My friend had twins the same time i had DD1 and i praise you! i sometimes find it hard enough with just one newborn.

Had a little bit of a rough night with Lexie.. but she seems to be all good today.. typical. Hope it was just a one off.. this colic can be a killer for mummies!

SS: glad to hear the colic is a little better today....it makes it very hard doesnt it. DD1 was like that, this time round it seem to have gotten lucky ;)

Hope: i cant imagine twins, hope its going well for you!! it was a bit of a wait, but all went great in the end!!

Hey ladies,

Sorry I've been AWOL. My internet has been playing up at home and I'm just posting quickly from the library today. Have been so busy between feeding and on a 3 hour express cycle. Working with a lactation consultant from the hospital to see if I can get Ethan to attach. Very nervous about DP going back to work next week and how I will manage everything.

I know I have so much to catch up from the Belly Buddies thread. I hope you are all doing well.

It's all a bit quiet in here. Hope everyone is doing well.

well, i though id been really slack not posting here for soooo long, but i dont feel so bad now as noone else is either.....surly we all have more to say..... :)

HELLO OUT THERE..............???

Hey Beckoes,

I joined in on the chatter in the later March group as there wasn't much happening here. Hope you are doing well.
