I found out Christmas day, the best present ever- although dh didn't believe it until the line was darker a couple of days later!
Luke is still in size 2 nappies even though he's 14lb, think it depends on body shape too chelle1986. I don't think either leak anymore than the others but I think huggies are softer, they don't leave those horrible crystals on the baby if the nappy has been on more than a couple of hours and they don't get damp from the outside so clothes stay dry unlike with pampers. I also prefer the tabs with huggies they are more stretchy. Perhaps I've thought about this too much 
I have to say I tried the new pampers newbaby as part of the mumchoice panel and they were much better than any other pampers nappies I've used.

I had a conversation with DP around this date about trying for a baby and i was pregnant 2 weeks later! With twins!!! Well, he had just got back from 6 months away. :o
I think i need to let the authorities know, that someone has taken my easy goin good as gold child (Isobel) and replaced her with a child that has moaned and cried all day long. 
You sound very perky beaditali you been on the juice?! ha.
Umph. What I wouldn't give for a cognac and coke! It's not the cognac that's stopping me.....it's the coke.

OMG, one poo a week? Arlo dies about 6 poos a day - is he a freak?! Seriously, i'd changed hus nappy 4 times before lunch yesterday..?!
First time in a week I've had to do a 4.30am feed. But to be fair we messed up his routine a bit - usually he's awake a bit in the evening playing, which seems to tire him out nicely for the night, but he was asleep and we were watching Mad Men...!
Picking up our new car today - if we can get out of the driveway past the snow! Took one drive in our current car with baby seat and pram chassis and decided we needed an estate car! DH v excited - he'd been wanting a new car for years, I kept saying 'after the wedding', 'after we move house', 'after the baby comes'..!!! Finally I agreed when I saw that if we ever want to go away anywhere, arlo will be fine but we will have to wear several changes of clothes all at once as there ain't room for anything else in the boot once Arlo's stuff is in!

I'm really looking forward to taking Louis swimming - we're planing on going in the new year. He absolutely loves his bath so hopefully he'll love the pool too... Haven't investigated classes yet, but I've read the underwater is the only way babies can actually swim as their heads are to heavey.
melly we use Nature Babycare nappies too. When Louis was first born they kept leaking (think he was a bit too skinny in the leg) but now he seems to fit the much better. He's a multiple poos a day baby too - tends to do a few close together in the morning and a few in the early evening, and then a couple of sneaky ones at random times, just to keep us on our toes . They have 2 consistancies totally liquid... and foam!

Foam - nice!!
Sorry mammmy about the Baileys 
Probably about to cause envy now but am rather chuffed....Discovered last night that I fit back in my skinny jeans, so excited, only have about 5 pounds to go before I'm back to pre-pregnancy weight, have no idea how it's happened as been eating for 10 and not exercising (but then running round after toddler and feeding a giant 10 week old probably has something to do with it!)
Flynn used to poo everyday at least sometimes more but the last couple of weeks it's gone to alternate days.
Woke up to snow and can't get out of my road so haven't been able to go for my day out to meet my best mate 
so gutted but can't risk it with a 10 week old, the thought of getting stuck somewhere terrifies me.
Ah well will just have to go and play in it and then light the fire and drink some more Baileys.....

I am still 2 stones over what i was before i got pregnant. I did put 5 stones on though.
It's getting to the point where i can't say 'i've jsut had twins' for an excuse. Although it sounds better when i say 16 weeks ago rather than nearly 4 months. 
Went through my pregnant belly photos the other day and my first one is when i am 8 weeks pregnant and i have thee teenest bump and i'm so slim (in comparison to now!) Umph.
