    I'm sorry to hear that Sami - it's never easy when people close to us go into hospital but round christmas it's even worse... Hope he'll be home again soon!

  • Morning all,

    You guys have covered 8 full pages since I left 24 hrs ago!!!

    Went to see Stereophonics last night, was fab and hope the two unborns liked it!

    Felt movement again last night, about third night in a row, as soon as I lay down to bed. It's weird and fab at the same time.

    Disappointed though with my spotting of twin things in prep for the sales. The stock of twin buggies is disgraceful. Mothercare has quite a range but they are either side on (how do you get through doors, on pavements etc, we want one behind the other. Plus, many are for toddlers and a newvborn, not two newborns. Checked out Mothercare, Babies are Us and Mamas and Papas in two Leeds and Meadowhall - rubbish! Will have to look for advice on Tamba!
    Proud mother of twin boys - double the trouble and twice the pleasure! :T

    I love the Inglesina Twin Pram, perhaps a bit too expensive, but it looks lovely:

    They also do a triplet one that is similar, I want three babies!

    Uhmmm yes... :) I don't know how to tell you this but mine is only just starting to let up... at 19 weeks...
    although still getting it is IS slightly better :)
    Do try to eat something before you get out of bed though - piece of toast or anything bland really. It's really important you do it BEFORE you get up - so get your OH to go make you a piece of toast :)

    Ickle, My friend has the iCandy pear which can be for twins and isn't quite as long as some but there are a lot of bits to it so need storage space, a lot of the tandem ones are really long and hard to steer I've been told - no experience myself

    Carla Sorry your rough :(

    Well sis has called Dad will be kept in for "a few days" on IV anti-b's. I really hope he's out for Chrimbo but with the luck we've had I'm not holding my breath, he's gone from cold to flu to chest infection to pleurisy to pneumonia! :eek:

    Thanks for your kind thoughts ladies :kisses3:

    You ladies talk far too much!!!

    I'm 33 weeks tomorrow - and have been hit with the most dreadful heartburn! I'm blaming the piece of cheese on toast i 'needed' when I got home from work. I don't remember suffering with the last two. Is there any truth in the old wives tale, and i'm carrying a big hairy monkey :eek: .

    Can't remember who mentioned it before (sorry), but DS and DD don't stay up any later in the school hols - because they still get up at the same time in the morning, and spend the day grumpy because they're tired!

    Finally - has anyone started on or have any previous experience of raspberry leaf? Am i right in thinking you can start it at 32 weeks, and gradually build up the amounts til baby is here? :confused: I've got tablets and tea bags in the kitchen - but don't know which to start with. Maybe a cup of tea a day this week to start with?
    :beer:
