Hi girlies, I am so sorry I haven;t been on in ages. All is fine with babies and I I've just had my sister and family over from Canada so been rushing around. I am also off this week which is lovely.
Hope you girlies are all well and glad that everyone has had there 20 week scan now.
I can't believe how quick my tummy is growing. My sisters husband is a doctor and last week he felt my tummy and said I was measuring 30 weeks.
I am feeling lots of movements - twin one has found my bladder and twin two is lying across the top.
I will post again soon I promise but must dash as about to have dinner with the family.
Love Cxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Hi guys. Thanks for thinking of me. Yes had scan, went so well. I am now a very happy bunny. Still dont know the sexes as we both said we did not want to know, but looking at scan pictures oh thinks they are boys but I think you cant really tell. Will try to put them on my profile this afternoon so you can see what you all think!! Would be interested to know. I am now going to start getting bits for the little blighters as money is a bit tight so get bits at a time. I am so glad I am not the only one with sickness. not so bad but its defenitly there especially in the mornings. Apart from that I feel fine. I have put on 2 stone in weight so dont worry about eating too much. I have not put it on anywhere else though which is weird. Must go, going shopping with my Mum and Grandad (he is 90 bless him) and son. Will let you all know when I put the pictures on. Have a good day guys. XXXXX

Morning ladies, sorry to hear about all of your sickness, i have started to feel a difference this week in how tired i am getting and more heartburn, my back is still the same (its horrible isnt it julie!) is anyone feeling lots of pressure down below and at tops of legs? might be standing all day at work.
After this week got 5 weeks left at work, counting down now! leaving at 30 weeks because there is nowhere to sit and i am standing all day.
got a scan on fri cant wait, twin 1 girl is quite low down and i can tell the difference between the movements twin 2 boy is higher up above my belly button lying across also and although they both have strong kicks his feel stronger, not long left really now ladies isnt it exciting!! SIL gave me so much stuff last week boy and girl stuff half with the labels still on and all immaculate, its so cute, havent got cotbed, buggy or car seats yet, waiting abit longer to get them.
I hope you ladies feel abit better soon, charlie we havent heard from you, hope you are ok?? take care xxx

Morning everyone. hope you are all well. sorry to hear some of you ladies are still sick. to be honest wish i had some sickness then maybe i wouldnt eat as much
i have a stone and a half on since i got preg!!!! 
Its not easy having kids and being pregnant but you just get on with it. my 2 year old is a nightmare he still doesnt sleep all night and expects either me or dh to be in with himthe most of the night. been trying to get him settled but its not easy.
they both talk to my belly no which is so cute th youngest says he can see the babies through my belly button
and they both have to kiss my belly goodnight before they go to sleep. hope they are as keen when the babies arrive.Im really starting to stuggle with my back at the minute. the pain i have in it is unbelievable at night and when i turn to go fromone side to the other the pain is so bad i could cry. dont see the midwife til 30 weeks but see the consultnat next fri so will say to her and see if she can suggest anything. throught the day its not as bad it just feels weak and if i bend to do anything its not easy. moan over for the day!!!
i have 11 weeks left of work
not sure i will last that long mind you.Charlie how did the scan go dying to hear how you got on xx
take care everyone

Hi all..
Yes we are very quiet.. Sally.. i wanted to say dont get ur hopes up with sickness but was hoping u would be ok.. am afriad to say mine still hasnt stopped entirely.. def loads better but then have been sick fri, last night and tonight! So have a feeling i will have occasional throughout! When is ur scan?? Hope u ok other than this?! OH JUST LOOKED AND SEEN IT WAS TODAY!!!!!!!! Hope all ok.. let us know!!!
Charlie - where are u?? Hope all ok!
Am glad it is a bit cooler here now! Am off to devon sunday for a few days with dh, parents sisters and their families.. so am looking forward to break from work!!! and then on 16th we have 4d scan! And once i have seen that the 20 week one was right with 2 girlies will get on with nursery!
Movement is happening low down mostly, just bubbly but is fairly frequent.. usually when settling down at night.. want proper kicks!!!! (always moaning)!
Now i dont know how any of u cope with children already... i have no energy and feel rough and know i would be useless! Lots of respect to u!
I dont get 24 week scan, 28 and 32 here.. guess it works different everywhere, glad we have 4d one at 26 weeks so not so long to wait then!!

Hi guys. Its quiet on here at the moment. How are you all?? I have got that sickness feeling back again!! Thought that was it now. Oh well I guess it will all be worth it in the end. How you all doing?? Is everyone still well?? XX

morning ladies, hope it is abit cooler for you all!
it rained and thundered here last night about 7 ish but it didnt cool down it was even worse! think it must of rained in the night but had the fan on all night and put ear plugs in and slept well.
We have air con at work thank god but dh said its awful in the office where he works as it has broken!
Julie, we are having to change our bedroom round cause we cant even fit one cotbed in at the mo! going to try and co sleep them at 1st and see how that goes, cot beds are abit bigger than cots so hoping it will work, got 2 moses baskets for the 1st few weeks my sil and my cousin have given us theirs.
I brought the tommee tippee closer to nature bottles and stem sterilizer in the sale at babies are us about 6 weeks ago, it came to about £35 instead of £70, not sure how many bottles i would need so brought 12 but also got 3 with sterilizer will prob use them for water juice etc, plus got a brand new boots microwave sterilizer from car boot brand new for £2.50 because the womans son and grandson came over from austrailia and she brought it but it wasnt used, so will be able to do more bottles at once!
Quite like the cosatto mobi car seats in cherry and navy and dh likes the cosatto bro and sis buggy but want to see it 1st and have a tast drive! we need to get it in the zafira with all the seats up.
Hope you all have a good day take care

Morning ladies.
Sally glad your well and im sure your excited about your scan. keep us posted on how it goes.
Jue the heat is killing me too. i have every window in the office open and a fan going but it isnt helping much. Its raining this morning so will hopefully clear away the sticky heat for a bit. Im getting loads of kicks from the boy but not alot from the girl. she does kick but not very often not worried at the minute though because i have a doppler and check the heartbeats everyday. really not sure what i would have done if i hadnt bought it!!
I have my 24 week scan on the 15th aug and i will actually be 25 weeks. cant wait though because its with the consultant and i can ask all the questions i have built up. my mum is coming with me this time and then we are going to buy the pram afterwards :D we have decided on the out and about nipper 360 as it seems to be the best on the market for side by side prams so far. i know a few people who have them and they love them so that made the decision for me.
I have been really good and not bought alot so far. So yesterday i ordered a dulux travel cot that has a change unit and vibrates and has lights music etc from mothercare. I thought if i put the babies in there until they are a bit bigger i would be able to actually move in my bedroom
at the minute we have a kingsize bed and to put a cot bed or 2 cots in it would be crazy as we just dont have the room. also the travel cot has a mattress and i think looks really comfy so fingers crossed it does the job for the first few months.i also bought a steriliser and 4 doc browns bottles. prob need about another 40
but hey its a start anyway. Not going to go too mad because people are so good when babies are born and you end up with a pile of stuff you have either already bought or you never use and becuase its so close to xmas i can put things on their xmas list for people to buy or santa to bring!! 
my two boys are writing a list already!!! madness but if it keeps them happy.Anyway must go and do some work. hope you are all well and speak soon.

Glad you had a nice time at your bf sally bet you cant wait till scan next week, i have got my 24 week scan next fri.
Twins are really active now, twin 1 must have her head on my bladder and twin 2 is higher up above my belly button lying across, he is giving really strong kicks now.
the kids have gone away now they have just phoned from gran canaria to say they got there ok, i cried last night when they went and this morning when i got up!

Oh I am scared and excited all at the same time. Trying not to think about the scan though. Hows everyone feeling??? I am still blooming so making the most of it. Itching to go and buy stuff but I am waiting for that scan. X X x
25/7/08 14:02
Hi ladies, hope you are all enjoying the sunshine!! ive had a lovely week off, i dont know about you ladies but the twins are moving more and more every day and kicks are getting alot stronger, twin no 2 the boy kicked yesterday and ds felt it, i think it shocked him abit as he didint know what to expect, that is the 1st time anyone has actually felt it properly, i certainly felt it!!
better go back to baking cakes with the kids, have a good weekend ladies xx

Hello girls!
I feel very bloated and fat right now!!! Oh well! I had 1st consultant appt today which was short and sweet, however she was nice, and said measurements all fine and heard heartbeats (although she said u can not guarantee they are different ones we were picking up) however there was also lots of movement to be heard! Reassuring! I now have my next scans booked for 2nd sept at 28 wks, and then 30th Sept at 32 weeks. Also see consultant after scan too. So that bit sorted! And am glad we booked the 4d one for 16th so get to see them b4 then as well!
I am shattered after busy weekend, in laws from spain stopped over before they move to belfast (today), however been a bit hectic. It was also our 1st wedding anniversary yesterday so we had day off together, however my exhaustion limited what we could do! Went for lunch and a wander round shops, and text my mum to ask her to babysit next year so we can return to our reception venue for dinner and drinks.. when hopefully i am feeling a bit more lively!
Jue - very lucky having week off! I have 2nd week in aug off and cant wait! How r u spending ur week?
Julie - i dont think they are allowed to say 100%.. although i think its more common to get it wrong the other way round! I am same as u, hoping mine was right after buying girly stuff in next sale and pink cots......... hmmmm.. may not have been most sensible idea but i loved them and couldnt resist!!!! haha! Sex - NO!!!! Poor dh.. but it has been a long time for us... its last thing i wanna do when so tired and sickness in evenings (although not so bad now).. i am usually in bed asleep by the time dh comes to bed... he is being good about it know, think cos he can see what i feel like! Do have lots of affection though (i know its not the same)
Sallyanne - are u still blooming? I thought i was until was sick last 2 mornings.. all seems to be if too tired so went to bed earlier and slept very soundly, and am shortly off to bed for an early night as need to catch up! I havent decided on pram, but did a thread on here and the out n about little nipper was reccommended by loads of people so will prob go for that!
Charlie - is time moving any faster for u now?? I think it is for me at last.. i am pleased u are feeling them move... after i read ur post about that i was lying in bed and tummy went really odd and when i felt it it had gone really solid.. so i am feeling them, and also the popping quite a lot - seems to be mainly whjen i am lying still and quiet. Was also reassuring to hear amount of movement today on doppler... How is your toothache? Hope u better now? Do u have date of next scans? I live in Basingstoke, hants which is about 1.5 hrs away from lakeside - i just love that ikea and with everything else nearby its ideal! However it would be lovely for us all to meet one day with are little ones!!! I am sure we could find somewhere central to us.. cant remember where rest of u lived?!
Anyway - off to sleep now...!
Night xx
PS. bought one of those long body support pillows yesterday and slept lots better (it didnt stop constant need for wee of course!!)

Hi ladies,
I have got a week off work yippee!!! i am feeling lots of movement now esp off twin 1 the little girl she has got her head near my bladder so i dont even have a gradual feeling that i need to go for a pee it just comes and i need to go straight away! ha ha.
Julie, i felt a bit down about 2 weks ago i was just like you, i seem to be ok now though how long it will last i dont know, i seem to feel better since i had my scan.
We have just had a clear out in dd's bedroom and have put 8 bags out for the pdsa!! i have never known such an hoarder!!
Will be sad on sunday the kids go to gran canaria for 2 weeks with their dad, people keep saying it will be nice to rest etc but i will miss them so much!! will prob be shouting at them within half hour of them being home haha! but cant grumble at least he is taking them away.
Julie you are right we feel rough alot and my back is killing me but it will be worth it when the little ones are born it is so special and we are blessed.
have a good day ladies, 10,000 loads of washing to do now!!

morning girls.
charlie - poor you i hate toothache hope they sort something out for you as im sure your in agony.
kate - thanks i am just hoping she is right as i would be disappointed now i have my mind set that its a boy and a girl. the more i remember the scan there where VERY definate boys bits and nothing there for the girl except the lines. she said she wont say 100% but that she was pretty sure it was a girl.
meant to say they are both breech at the minute with the girl lying on top of the boy they look so uncomfortable but hope they move round soon as when they get a bit bigger there wont be room to move and i will def have to have a c section. see my consultant again on the 15th Aug so will be able to ask her lots of questions. feeling loads of movement now mainly from the boy and as his feet are just at my bladder you can imagin how often i am having to run to the toilet
but i really dont care as i was so worried there may be something wrong that i will suffer whatever comes with this preg and just be glad when they arrive safetly. must go before i ramble anymore.oh before i do is anyone really down at the minute. my mood is so low its awful. my dh can do nothing righ although at the minute he is useless anyway and doesnt seem at all interested in this preg. Also i know its TMi but i am soooooooo not interested in sex i swear its a chore everytime i know i have to give in
anyone else feel like this or am i just weird 
speak soon

Morning all - sorry but I need to have a moan:
I've got toothache
I have a problem tooth and the gum around it has gone inflamed. I am going to see if I can see the dentist tomorrow but I don;t suppose there is anything they will be able to do. I guess I shouldn;t moan to much as I get it from time to time and know that it will pass.I'll catch you guys later xx

Hi Charlie, thought it was just me but I have to sleep during the day for at least 1 hour as I cant function for the rest of the day. Havent had a full nights sleep since about 8 weeks pregnant. Felt sick and rubbish up until about 1 week ago and now I feel normal (must be the blooming stage) I am enjoying it while it lasts!!! As for feeling the bubs, I have been feeling them since about 14 weeks but they felt like eels in my tummy, now i feel them all the time and they are getting stronger every day. If I lay down on my back I can sometimes feel what I think is either a head or bum. OMG I have gone on so much Sorry. better go now otherwise you will get bored LOL. X X
19/7/08 19:12
me again.........
I have started to feel movement (well I think it is) yipeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee.
It just feels like a tapping feeling.
