Just wanted to pop back in now that we've had our twins... Was a while ago that I posted, in fact I think it might have even been when we first found out we we're having twins, which was at 13 weeks.
On the 16th May our twins made their appearance via emergency c-section (after I had a suspected amniotic embolism, followed by major blood loss (4 litres!!) and several days in intensive care - but that can be saved for my birth story...) and it's hard to believe they are already 7 weeks old! They were born at 36 weeks and weighed 5lb 9oz and 5lb 12oz.
I am currently breastfeeding DS as he is a strong feeder, but I am expressing and giving DD her feeds from a bottle as she has had attachment issues from day 1 and it gets too frustrating for both of us to have to keep re-attaching her every 5 seconds!
We also have a two and a half year old DS so life is pretty busy, but I feel like I am coping really well. DH has been wonderful and helps out heaps, even after going back to work - plus we have both families local so we're pretty lucky.
Look forward to keeping in touch with you all!! Chat soon x
