    X-rays when pregnant :eek: Does hubby being a twin increase your chances of having them?
    No - it's only inheritable on the mothers side. It's to do with producing multiple eggs in the same month and therefore determined by the mother. Identical twins are not hereditary though. (And non-identical twins do just happen at random too - although I have brothers who are twins, it doesn't run in my family.)

    Just remembered I actually came back to ask a question:
    If you were buying vitamins online, what sort of length would it be reasonable to expect the expiry to be? I've e-mailed a couple of companies asking them if they can give me an indication of the expiry dates on specific products and one hasn't replied and the other said they can't give me any information additional to what is already on the website.

    What susan said :) They run in the female line in both sides of his family, but if we end up with them too it would be fluke as due to me making 2 eggs, not him iyswim. I think dh was a teensy bit disappointed there was only one baby when I had the 12 week scan, but I bloody well wasn't ;)

    Oh Elle (and anyone else who cares)- tt nappy wrapper refill multipacks are reduced to £9.99 in Tesco at the mo.

    Rhys is finally awake - sleepy head! By the sounds of the monitor, he's lying still muttering "rah.. rah... rah" to himself! *confused*

    i havent seen or heard from icklebeans for a while i wonder how her and the boys are doing?(the twin thing remindedd me of her :D)

    well done on the 20p thats brilliant!! i hope people start to bid on my ebay items soon? i seem to do better on gumtree just now?

    TBH we only really planned Charlie and he was meant to be a twin, luckily he managed to survive after we had been told we had lost him at the early stages as there were big bleeds around each eggsack. i think he makes up for it all now and has the energy of 2 toddlers! the rest were all surprises and very much wanted and very loved!
    i was goingto ask something and my mind has went blank lol!
    What's for you won't go past you
