Well I am sorry to say but I have finally reached the terrible 3's. OMG they are chucking wobblies and just being generaly hummmmm there is just no words to describe it.
Any way no point me sooking about it. How is everyone going?
Oh, Leanne. You poor thing. Here I am having a winge about teething twins!!! I guess at times it is hard to stay positive but chin up mate...they wont be 3 forever??!!! Take care and I hope things pick up for you soon. You are an inspiration to me to have got to 3yrs with twins, and deal with other children too. Mine are only 5mnths old and when I hear from people like you it inspires me. Do you have anyone that may be able to give you a breather from the tantrums for a little while, that might help?? KIM. XXX
Thanks Kim. I think they are just going though a stage ATM. I suppose it just seems amplified cause there is 2 of them. How is the teething going for you. For me Xavier was my shocker teether but Jordy was great. Thank God Olivia is a good teether too. OMG 5 months Kim it just seems like yesterday they were born.
Have a great day
Hello Everyone
Im Back on bb havent been on for a while and decieded to come back need some girls to chat to and even more some other mums with multiples because as we all know its not easy.... hope to speak to u all soon
OMG I am having one of those weeks where I am just soooo SCARED!!! I have been costing along quite well emotionally with thise pregnancy and now I think the impact of having 2 at once is getting to me. Did anyone else have this rollercoaster through pregnancy?
Oh Helen i can definately relate! I know mine is partially because i know they will be here in 13 weeks and it doesn't seem that far away anymore.
But i think you are going to be amazing you have two beautiful kids that are testament to what a fabulous mum you are and you will be great with these guys too! Just keep reminding yourself all these other twin mums survive Hope you feel better soon.
hey girls i know exactly what you mean. One day i stubbed my toe and i cried for hours like someone had chopped the thinig off your emotions are horrible when pregnant with one let alone two i used to worry how can i share my time and love equally with two, will i be able to cope, how do i make them both feel special... but when they were born it comes naturally and i coped with them both and shared time and love easily. I mean it isnt easy but youll be great.
Hey Leanne, I just have a quick Q if you don't mind helping me out. When you did the feeding solids thing with your twins...did you use the same bowl/spoon or 2 seperate ones? What should I do? Kim.
Hey Odette, Thanx for the advice! I planned to start them on solids this week but the whole family has a nasty bug Not nice to have 4 sick kids all at once when you are sick yourself) so it's postponed. Any more advice you have on feeding twins please throw it my way. Much appreciated. Hey, my twins d.o.b was 16th Feb...bubbles d.d. is not far off huh Hope you are well. Take care. Thanx again.
grr and everyone being sick- that is no good
take care hon. Definately wait to everyone- including yourself are better and up for it.
Best advice for introducing solids is a tarp!!! Yep get a tarp and put in on the floor underneath their highchairs before each feed. Trust me it wont take long and food will be flicking everwhere!!
i used to take it outside and hang in on the line and the end of the day and wash it down. When it was warm- i would also take their high chairs outside and HOSE them down!!! only way to get rid of the food!!!
Also make sure you have back up food- they start eating and they are like machines- so have something ready that you can give them quickly if you finish your bowlful and they want more. Custards etc were good for that ! No heating required
Would make up a heap of mashed vegies etc at a time and freeze them so just had to grab a container out and it was enough for both of them. The jars that you buy at the supermarket last you about 3 seconds with two of them. Go for introducing a new food or if you are out, but if i fed mine on jars, it was nothing for them to devour 5 jars of food in one meal $$$$$$
if i was going out i would heat it up and put it in a thermos- kept it nice and warm!
Yep bubbles due on the 18th feb- all great people are born in feb hey!!! My b'day is the 20th of Feb!!!
good luck and have fun!!
odette
