    Congratulations Lulu!! Double the joy :-D so exciting!

    So glad to hear your scan went well Littlemoog! Our went fine, everything normal. Only got one (fuzzy/odd) pic, it was a guy, a male student and a female nurse so with 3 staff glaring over me it was quite daunting and a lot more 'medical' than the 12 week which was nice and relaxed. Just pleased all is ok though.

    Thanks, Pink. It was such a shock! I've found a pram I like, what have you gone for?

    After changing my mind many times, i have bought the out 'n' about nipper.

    Initially I thought about the ones that are front and back, as they are narrower in doorways, but having spoken to other twin mums, they then ended up changing to a side by side when the babies are a bit older, as they hated having one stuck at the back.

    Also liked the mini city jogger double, but too wide for my front door. The mountain buggy duo came a close second!

    I had a limited budget, so it had to be an MSE purchase!

    No, I am not perfect, but yes I do judge people on their use of basic English language. If you didn't know the above, then learn it! (If English is your second language, then you are forgiven!)

    A friend of mine who has twins had the out 'n' about nipper and found it really practical when her boys were younger (they're coming up three now).

    Glad that your scans went well Littlemoog and sweetilemon; it is such a relief to see them!

    Ooh I'll have a look. I think we'll be going with the Mountain Buggy Duet as it's only 63cm wide which is great for a side by side!

    I don't like the idea of tandems as I think it's harsh on one baby, and I don't like the ones where one is underneath, what happens if it snows?

    I so nearly bought the mountain buggy duet due to the width, but having played with a friends, it weighs 15.5kg and is hefty to lift in the car, and a bit fiddly to collapse.

    The Out n About v4 is nearly 3kg lighter (i am not very strong!) plus bigger tyres for dog walking!

    The final sway was on price - I paid £321 brand new for the latest version from Tesco, and got a load of clubcard points too!

    Ooh that's good! Can you put carrycots on it to start?
