Good Monday Morning Ladies,

Did everyone have a good weekend? We are going to Cancun tomorrow so I'll get my R & R then. My olderst sister is arriving on the 8th with all kinds of goodies from the US, like a Doppler so we can listen to the baby's heartbeat at home. Then the next week, other friends are coming with my breast pump. Can't wait to play with all my new toys.

I'm going to exercise now, will check back in a couple of hours.

Saludos,

Suzanne

Morning Guys,

Ahhh...a day off of work with nothing to do. I'm thinking about hanging out at the book store and maybe doing a little shopping. Other than that...just relaxing for the week ahead. The next two weekends will be baby showers and next week will be the last week of childbirth class, so after that it's just Wait for Baby time. Does anyone else feel like it's craaaaaawling by? I guess it seems slower now that I'm achier, grumpier and bigger.

Suzanne--Have fun with your new gadgets! I'm hoping to get the pump I put on my registry but seeing how it's $250 I may be buying it myself. Also, I might just get the Avent Isis manual instead as it's a lot cheaper and I've heard it's the best of the manual pumps. I am hoping to get the electric one though!

Red--Thank goodness the twins are OK but that must be torture not getting to hold them. Here's hoping they gain FAST! Oh, and I can't believe you're back to your prepreg weight. That's so great.

[b]Chris, I am so glad to hear that the twins are doing well. It must be breaking your heart not to be able to hold them yet. Which way did they cut you? I had a transverse (bikini cut). It took a couple of weeks after my cesarean to start feeling like I wasn't going to split open. The first week is the worst, you should improve daily from here on out. And the more you move around, the faster you'll feel better. Try to get out and walk if you have time. How's the pumping going? What type of pump are you using?

I also have a tranverse cut, I wish I would have known I was actually going to get a C- section, I would have set up sterlization before hand. (sighs) oh well!

I am also getting plenty of walking in, up and down two flights of stairs, going to the hospital twice a day,and the fact that parking is soooooooooooooooo far away. But you are right Suz, the more walking I do the better I feel.

Pumping is going pretty good, I usually get about 3-4 oz every 3 hours.
I did buy an Avent Isis Manual. The hospital did say it was the best, plus all the girls that are pumping all use the same brand also.
Trolly- I would highly recommend it.

I did get to slightly pick up both babies to adjust them and the wires, not the same as a cuddle, Something to look forward to eh?
And they are both back at birth weight!!
After 10 days!

to all

Hi ladies.... Seems like a weekend, it's so quiet around the Net today. Everyone must be off playing. I'm sooooo tired today. Not very hungry, but I am napping all day, it seems. We didn't even stay up all that late with fireworks last night. Just a quiet day.

Hope you all had a fun 4th (or a fun weekend for those not in the US). We bbq'd and did fireworks in front of the house. Lots of neighbors out doing the same, so it was a nice atmosphere.
