she gets to see and touch bub two tommorow hopefully & she comes home with the twins within the next two weeks.

Neo, I wouldn't worry about your Aunt's supply - for a baby so tiny and so early, a few teaspoons of colostrum would be more than enough.

From the photos both girls look to be a good size (esp being so premmie!) and strong fighters

I'm sure they will be home with your aunt soon.

congrats to your aunty!

its the top up of formula that annoys me

newborns have the tiniest bellies

about the size of a large marble
they do not need top ups!
tell he to sick to her guns and keep saying no!

She sounds like she is doing so well!
