I'm glad things are going well for the twins! I hope your back problems ease
and that your DS' kidney proves nothing to worry about. -- Amy Mum to Carlos born sleeping 20/11/02, & Ana born screaming 30/06/04 http://www.freewebs.com/carlos2002/ http://www.babiesonline.com/babies/a/ana%5Fj%5F2004/ My blog: http://spaces.msn.com/members/querer-hijo-querer-hija/ "Ilse Witch" wrote in message news It's been busy busy busy, but at the same time, it's been a marvel and enormous joy to have *two* such little creatures to care for. I haven't even had time to read all the replies to the birth announcement, but it's been truly amazing to see so many people have been following my story. I feel blessed to have found so many friends here and I wish I had time to reply to each of you in person. DD has recovered from her dip and is gaining strength day by day. She was back on her birthweight this monday. Today she nursed with me like she has never been bottle fed! She is finally starting to wake up for her feedings and drinking enough, so we are going to switch her to nursing one by one feeding. DS2 has been tested for reflux in his urinary tract, and nothing was found. The cause of his enlarged kidney is still unclear. We've not heard from the u/s scan whether it is getting smaller or not. He is on a low dose antibiotics to prevent infections, but has no problems with it so far. Next week both kids are due for a check-up with the pediatrician, and in another week they will test him for kidney damage. In spite of everything, he is doing very well. I have caught up with the milk production and both kids are off formula since yesterday. It is a matter of pride that no matter what, the twins will grow on mommy-milk for at least 6 months. I am starting to build a small supply, so I don't have to pump in the middle of the night. Only one downpoint: my backproblems have returned with a vengeance and today I was seriously frustrated that I couldn't even lift my own babies from their crib. Luckily DH is home for the week, and things are improving quickly, DS1 is dealing with things wonderfully. He is totally in love with his new siblings, after denying everything to do with the pregnancy, I am happy to see him so accepting. We make time for him whenever possible, and amazingly, we find ourselves with some spare time every now and then (like now). We are tired, but not exhausted (yet) and thoroughly enjoying every spare moment we have. Children are such miracles! -- --I mommy to DS1 (July '02) mommy to DS2 & DD (August '05) mommy to four tiny angels (Oct '03 - Oct '04) guardian of DH (age classified) |

"Ilse Witch" wrote in message news Saturday August 13th saw the birth of two new world citizens: DD and DS2. Since DD was not lying in full breech and the membranes had ruptured, they arrived by c-section. They both weighed in at just above 3kg. My recovery is progressing well, Congratulations! Debbie |

My recovery is progressing well, DS2 is nursing like a champ, but needs additional hospital tests for an enlarged kidney. He is doing wonderful otherwise. Congtratulations on the birth of your twins! I was sad to hear they had to be born by C-section but you still have a wonderul outcome! ((((((Hugs)))))) Carl |
