Jan/Feb 2011 Mommies (Nov & Dec 2010 early babes)

Was just thinking how great it is that all the multiple Mommies are already making plans to go out and about with the babies.

It is something that no one told me, but you are scared to go out with a baby first time round. You feel so overwhelmed and like a "bad" mommy, so you rather stay at home. NOT GOOD!

I really had to force myself to go out, to get accustomed to people seeing me with a baby, to be able to handle my crying baby in public etc etc.

It sounds silly, but push yourself to get use to driving with babies, going to friends, etc. It helps alot to be "normal" while still having a baby. I know it will be much harder with more than one baby, but really is worth the effort.

Before you notice it, you have been sitting at home for 3 months without going anywhere. Not good for the soul

Vix, if im still bleeding, I wont be making it, will have my dr appointment, the monday after meet, if I see a big improvement then I will definately go. Im just also a bit scared work sees me out and im on "bedrest", so I will know for sure closer to the time. Dr has booked my bedrest this week and next week, possibly the following week.

Which on eis the reversible handle that you were talking about?

Natural for me!

Chris was through IVF and Maryke I can't be sure but i think she was on fetamoid or something like that, i think Santie is natural because hers are identical and ferility drugs won't make identicals

Thanks.

The ladies on the Afrikaans forum would like to know who of the multiple moms got pregnant natural and who used something eg clomid/IUI/IVF??

Well i fit them into the cheapie disney ones from ackermans and a real no name one from checkers, i think all those cheap bottles are standard sizes.

Thanks Vix...for ALL the info...just another question, do these teats fit on bottles that I can buy at Ackermans/Shoprite?

I will discuss with DH...I just love the reversable prams...and buying two for R920 brand new is a bargain...!

I used that pram until i got a stroller for C at about 5m and I'm sure the twins can share it for that long. but i would advise a soft carry cot inside as it's pretty hard as it comes.
