Mummies with Multiples - Lets Chat #3

**jessicana** · 19-10-2010 13:26

Hopefully there will be no more venting from me for a while.
I just got home from 6 nights at the mother baby unit at hospital. We were working on feeding and settling the boys.
Both are on the breast now, no more bottles, no more expressing!!! I feel like a free woman. I just hope it stays like this for a while.
My nipples are pretty sore going from no feeds to back to back feeds day and night so im resting them and giving bottles every so often when they get too sore.
Ahhhh the mother baby uint is a life saver, although its nice to be home now.

Jessicana - did I miss your post? How did you end up in the mother/baby unit - you poor things! But from the sounds of it, it's what you all needed. Hope things are a lot smoother for you now and the nipples are settling down - yah for you that your still breastfeeding - that is the best news.

AFM - I'm cracking up at the moment too! Mine have gone from just OK sleepers and most self settlers to a downward spiral of 2/3 hrly wanting to feed overnight and they're almost 7 months old - am exhausted - have an appt with CHN in 2 weeks to maybe get the ball rolling for us to attend our child health sleep centre in Brissy. I have done some form of CC in the past with all the other 3 and it has worked, but the thought of doing 2 is too overwhelming ATM.
Apart from that they're gorgeous and so interactive now...lot's of fun amongst the

Hi all I'm new on here, I'm expecting frat twins boy/girl in March 2011 by ceasar, I already have 1 boy who will be 5 in Jan, the twins were a huge shock at my initial scan but I have got more excited now I've got used to the idea. I would love to hear from anyone of your experiences, tips etc.

Hey Everyone!!!!

Just thought id pop in and say hi as its been a while!

Bethany and Abigail are growing up so fast! they are 3 months old today!

Perfect little babies, they sleep from 8:30pm until 6-7am

They feed. sleep and could also guarantee a poo at the same time,

Its fabulous being a multi mum i love it, at times it can be stressful but i have learnt to live with it

Bethany is getting 3 teeth, her two k9's and her top front tooth, its a night mare hahaha

Both bubbas are rolling over and chatting alot...

How is everyone else going?

Hi guys thought I'd just update. My boys are 3 weeks old on Tuesday!! It's already going soooo fast!
Having twins is definately difficult and sleep deprivation is hard but they are so worth it. My new favourite phrase is 'This too shall pass' lol! Good motto to go by I think.

These are my gorgeous boys
