    Hi Bella,
    That is a great Idea about packing your bags now you just dont know what might happen, Yes susans have some great PJ stuff I have got some slippers and a gown from there. Hope you enjoy your education class tonight, do shear some info, Can't wait to hear about your scan. I missed bloody RPA show I was looking foward to watching it but I had a few phone calls lastnight and forgot all about it grrrrrr. Might see if I can watch it on the net.

    Thanks Ausgirl.

    MY scan is pretty much the same as monday so OB has said that I can go for the whole day on Saturday I CAN'T WAIT, she also told me that the c-section is scheduled in for 8.30am so I am abit nervous about it but she has gone through it all with me.

    I will pop in later

    Hi Azz - have a great day tom at dd birthday. You will be glad to be let out of jail for at least a few hours!!!

    AFM - just very quickly had a great appt today boys are growing blood flow is good and fluid levels perfect. Twin 1 is 1170g and twin 2 is 1000g - yay both have hit the 1 kilo mark. I am begining to feel like we may be on the home stretch - next appt and scan 2 weeks when i will hit 30 then i think time should really fly. My blood pressure was also good so it was a relief. Anyway better go DH is getting annoyed at me on the computer!!! Will check in later or tom.

    xxBella

    Hi Bella whaoo your twin 1 is nearly the the size of my little one Im hoping he wll put on some weight before Friday. Thats great news your little men are doing so well, I just know you are going to go all the way. If we stayed close to each other we could catch up for a coffee after the boys are born. There is another twin mummy in here I was thinking of popping in to say hello she has a little boy. The nurses have told us to catch up but I don't want to intruded if she has a visitors or is having a nap. I might see if the nurses can set up a time for us to meet.

    AFM I had a great time yesterday DD loved it she got to eat what ever she wanted and she also got a heap of pressies. It was so good to be home, when I got home I laid on my bed for about 20 mins it felt so good not long now.

    Keep on baking xxxx

    Hi Azz,

    How are you feeling about Friday? God i an't beleive it's coming so quickly. My girlfriend had her little girl at 32 weeks last January weighed 1500g she had been given the steroids after her waters broke a week before. Her little girl did fantasticly - she needed feeding with a tube to begin with but then began putting on weight and was breast and bottle feeding by the time she went home. She needed no help with breathing i don't even think she had any oxygen needs at all. She had a vaginal birth and was able to cuddle her for an hour before she went to SCN. Today she is a checky little girl happy and healthy. Thought that a nice story may cheer you up! I have been saying little prayers for you and will continue!!!
    Is your mum still there helping out with DD?

    Hello to everyone else who may be lurking!!

    AFM - very tired the past few days - have been sleeping almost 12 hours a night! I'm not complaining since this is probably the last time in my life i will be able to!!! All good otherwise - usual aches and pains but hey that what carrying twins will do!

    Take care everyone
    will pop back later

    Hi all,

    Finally finding time to pop in and say hi!

    My girls arrived on 7/7/09 - they are now just over three weeks. After I went into hospital my high blood pressure quickly developed into pre-eclampsia and I ended up having a ceasar about three days later. I was 36+2.

    Twin A was born at 2.35kg and came up to the ward with me. She fed well from the beginning and today was weighed at 2.74kg!!

    Twin B was born smaller, only 1.87kg. She went straight to intensive care and was on oxygen at first and was fed by tube. She came off oxygen after 15 hours, but stayed in intensive care for three weeks while she learnt to feed by sucking. She came home with Mum and Dad yesterday and we're very happy to finally have both our little girls home with us.

    Hope you're all doing well, my thoughts are with you all who are holding your little babies in there.

    Argon xx

    Hi Bella thanks for that lovely story I have been thinking about friday and what is going to happen but I think I will just go with the flow and try not to over analise it. My Mum is still here and my Dad and brother came down as well hoping that the boys come when the are here My Dad leaves on Saturday great timing and my brother leaves following Wednesday I am happy that they get to see the boys before they leave.

    I reacon once you hit the 25 week mark you hit a wall and have nana naps everyday but your right make the most of it now, I was just thinking the samething today I love my sleep and thought this is my last week for nana naps even though the boys wont be in my room I still have to get up every 3 hours and express milk.

    Argon yah they are home with you. Thanks for popping in I have been thinking about you. Im glad to hear your little one is doing well.

    AFM im having alot of nana nap lately but not really up to much I have started a journal which has been good thiking about the early days.

    Hope everyone is doing well and relaxing as much as you can I will defiantly pop back in before friday.
