Multiple Mommies

Elamsmom, dh and I had sex 3 times in 1 night!!!! LOL, just kidding, we did IVF, both had complications.[/quote]

LMAO Chri_ds you are killing me. If that's the case, I'll be BD 3times in one night with DH wen we are TTC for next baby(babies) cos I would love to be blessed with twins/triplets

Sunrise, exactly what Vix has said I would do, buy them from the get go because you also might find yourself strapped for cash at a later stage.

I must admit that because this is my "first" (and last) I got myself nice camp cots for the babies, and they will sleep in them until they move to big beds, and if you have big enough space in car, in case you and dh want to go away, you can also pack them with, but yes, there are ways of just making easy beds for them. But I would def buy them before. Also, my mil kept asking me if it was necessary to have all the stuff ready because they were still going to be in NICU for some time and I can do it then, let me tell you, make sur you have done it all before. There was no ways I was going to go shopping for stuff while my babies were in hospital, and then I landed up being in hospital and babies went home before me. Also Im fussy, I like to do things my own way.

Where are you situated?

As for the prams, we bought a nice pram, but now I am sorry we did, Im actually thinking of selling it, its a bit big for us, so shop around and make sure you get what you want and what is most practical for you. (Its easier to go out with twins than it is triplets)

Hi Elamsmom

dont be silly, you are not butting in and your question is not inappropriate

Twins run in my family but the girls were concieved via IUI as I have hostile cervical mucous. I guess the odds were in our favour.

Check out the ttc thread, im sure you will find useful info there.

All the best !!!

Hi ladies

Sorry to butt in on your thread

Just wondering (& hope this isn't an inappropriate question- if it is, just ignore me), who conceived twins/multiples with the help of a FS/IVF etc (& is that cos u were struggling to conceive)? or do multiples just run in your families?

Oooooh! Vix thanks a million you such a darling.
I will print your post and show it to DH, next week I'm definitely going for shopping. And yes finally I'm preggies and I'm enjoying every moment of it, thanks!

Hapi - Yep as from next week I'll start buying coz I'm sure I will really struggle to buy anything at a later stage, already I'm tired so I will make sure everything is ready before 32w.

Twinbee- Thanks for answering me.
I also love wooden cots but I'm afraid that my space is too small.
Maybe getting a secondhand pram is not such a bad idea I'll check junkmail and see if I can find anything.

Thanks ladies *wink*

I bought two beautiful wooden cots from dreambaby and love them- got a nice discount and they convert to toddler beds. Bought a graco pram secondhand via junkmail and to be honest have used it only once. We walk every pm and use slings. Have everything ready before 32weeks bec even if you carry part this date you wouldn't really be comfortable doing much thereafter.

hi there Sunrise.

Congrats on your boy/girl twins.

Vix, tx a mil for the advise on the cots. I have also been wondering. I think that I will also opt for the camp cots rather.

Sunrise, Vix also advised to try and be ready by 32 weeks,my gynae also confirmed same. Even though I have not prepared a thing, I think that its good advise.
