My sister told one of her Chinese colleagues about the boys. 
“Twin boys” she gasped “every woman in China would like to be your
sister.”  2.5 billion Chinese can’t be wrong.

I am managing to breastfeed the twins together occasionally.  This
is not easy; I fail to understand how other people manage to look so serene,
mind you, I note that they do all look indecent.  I told my mother and she asked
“my goodness, do you feel like a cow?”.  After a pause for
reflection, I said “no, more like a pig“.

We haven’t been out much yet. Partly because Michael had to stay
indoors until the weekend before last when he hit the 3 kilo mark,
partly because of the terrifying logistics involved.  Also, we
were told that they would fit in the pram bit of our 3 in 1 thingy
until they were 4 months when we could transfer to the lightweight and
fab Maclaren.  That turns out to be a snare and a delusion, there
is no way that they can both fit in the pram and I am reluctant to
shell out for a double pram for 3 or 4 months.  I am going to
experiment today taking one in the sling and one in the pram. 
Hold your breath for me.

And finally, Mr. Waffle has pointed out to me that the twins are 6
weeks old today not yesterday.  It’s hard for me to concentrate
what with staying awake listening to the snuffling noises.

Ditto what H said – you are quite the hero. I read this blog with ever increasing awe. Good luck on your foray out. 0

Sounds like you need twin arms rather than a twin buggy my dear. Hope all is well with the snufflers. 0

oh shit- you mean you stay awake and listen to those noises with the next batch? I was hoping that was a once only obsession, and that this time round I’d be sleeping peacefully through extreme crying. 0

Ta Heather, Norah, Bobble, Pog, outing was delightfully uneventful. Even had a cup of tea. Felt very daring but did not venture to bathroom.
Minks, I fear so…
JD absolutely, extra pair of hands would be extremely useful. 0
