Posted in Twins on November-21-2007

The midwives have now signed us off and are now happy we’re heading in the right direction and don’t need their support any more.

    Their last task was to weigh the twins so Charlotte, our excellent maternity nurse Odette and I had made bets on the weight of the little ones. Charlotte was first (Mummy’s prerogative I guess) as the final weights were:

      Tilly Xanthe 7 lbs

        Scott Tyser 7 lbs

          Still a good deal smaller than Monty when he was born (8 lbs) but a lot bigger than they were last week.

            And they seem to be putting on weight at healthy rate.

              I sometimes lift up Monty or look at him and realise that I don’t really remember him being so small. He’s growing up way too fast.

                Wait a minute… haven’t I heard every parent I’ve ever known tell me that all my life?

                We also have a set of boy/girl IVF twins who weigh nearly what yours do, born a few weeks before yours. I realised the other day that they’ve now grown out of the early baby clothes - shocking how fast that happens!

                Hi Helen

                Thanks very much for your message. I’m stunned at how fast ours are growing too. I remember this with Mon ty too - every day they seem to have new expressions on their faces and seem just a tiny bit heavier than the day before.

                We’ve also had to let go of some of the clothes they were in at the start too.

                Good luck with yours - I hope you’re all well and having fun.

                Best wishes,

                Luke
