Egg has had her mini eggs today, natural birth, Rebecca and Jacob!

GodzillasResolutoryBumcheek · 10/01/2008 22:23

Mini eggs! Congratulations Egg!
We will not let anybody eat them though of course.

Thanks for letting me know, triplets
I go info-blind when back-reading and can't make head or tail of it!

Do I sense there are going to be lots of chicken/egg jokes, even you Moma just said "crack me up"! Not even Easter, though M&S have all their stuff out, dreadful! Lost a piece of my tooth today,grrrrrrrrrr more money. Talking of teeth, or even with teeth, the tooth fairy can hardly see the keyboard tonight as she is soooooooo tired, but cannot go to bed as a certain little girl lost a tooth today and is awake atm, tooth fairy needs to complete her mission or else there will be trouble in the morning!!

Ahhhhhhhhhhhhh Momma, But does it only just fit him? How old is he now,mine are such skinny ribs, the suit I think was 7/8yrs. they need 8/9yr old stuff, though they are 10 on the 27th! Got a super Indian outfit as well for you when I can find the feathers!

triplets · 11/01/2008 00:00

Right, DD back to sleep, excited I guess as she still believes! Toothfairy must go and brush her own, whats left of them, and get to bed before she turns into a pumpkin............again! Night Mommalove xxx

Well done T&T. Try to keep them upright for 10-15mins after each feed (I know that is a big ask at night). Also you can tilt their mattress just a little. But WELL DONE!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I knew you'd get there. It WILL get better.

Godzilla... welcome back. And you Doris. So nice to see the family back together!

twinkle1 · 11/01/2008 09:23

you can only make denial last so long though

MarsLady · 11/01/2008 09:25

twinkle... welcome to my world. My DTs were going to be my 4th and final baby. Instead I got 4 + 5. Despite things said earlier in the thread I wouldn't be without them.

How far along are you? We are a font of knowledge here and can help you bf exclusively (despite what so many around you will tell you). Also... it is more than possible to have a natural vaginal birth (just read down a little. Egg had one yesterday).

So......... come out of the rain and have some ldc and a nice steaming mug of cocoa!
