Hi Little Queen, Don't worry about turning round. My older twin turned around only at about 7 months... and now he's happily rolling while his younger brother is starting to crawl. They maybe twins but they develop at their own pace so don't worry too much about it, ok?

hi Chameleon, Congrats...I hope you are enjoying motherhood. As for your question whether to wake your twins up, perhaps I share with you my experience. When my twins were back from hospital, I woke them up every 3 hours to feed them. They were super tiny (2kg- older twin, 1.9kg- younger...

hey juliana...dun feel bad having to let your twins drink formula. You are great in giving birth to them already...BM is good but formula these days are good too. Though I'm still breastfeeding, I really feel formula is good too and am giving them occasional formula feeds just in case my supply...

hi sophia, I was not able to latch my older twin, only the younger one managed to. For convenience, I actually expressed my milk and store them. It's been 8 months and my milk supply has not decreased. I made an effort to pump every 4 hours (even waking up at night). I guess this helps to...

Hi all...Been so long since I last posted- been down with bad flu. My boys are trying to stand each time we carry them. They have not even started to crawl and they want to stand. My older twin seems to be teething and is getting fussy at night- is that normal? I'm still breastfeeding both of...

Hi Marcia, My younger twin has that kinda belly button you mentioned. I was very concerned too then but it is now okay as he puts on weight. He had that protruding belly button as the nurses removed the cord (instead of letting it dropped off by itself) to administer feeding when he was in...

Hi jling.. I usually express without latching. My older twin can't latch...so might as well I express for both. Only when I have lumps, I get the younger one to latch. If at restaurant, you can ask for hot water...if not, you can bring your own water to warm the milk.

hi everyone... I'm oso considering if i shd stop bf-ing my boys when they turn 6 months in 2 weeks' time. It's getting more challenging each day as I'm on the move- meetings and trainings. I always have to ask if the place I'm going has fridge to store my EBM. My recent retreat...the hotel's...

Gd morning, every-mom, it's been 2 months since I came back to work... only 1 word to describe- TIRED...hee.. I just take on more work... No matter how tired, going back sure find time to play wif the 2 boys. They are really fun to play with and they are developing at different rates. I'm...

My younger twin has turned over successfully...and my older one seems to be teething. He's starting to chew on his pillow and getting really fussy. It's so not like him as he's usually a well-behaved boy. My boys are turning 5 mths..is teething too fast..? Really heart pain to see him whinning...

hiya..how often do we have to change pacifiers? Also, me thinking of stopping breastfeeding after 6 mths cos I maybe travelling around. Some people told me after 6 mths, BM no more nutrients...any advice? Thanks!

hiya...time flies...my 2 boys are 4 months old today. It's been really tiring but fulfilling...they are now botak...hee.. I'm looking for spareparts for my Mendela pump...somehow the suction seems to be spoilt. I may have overworked it. Now, I'm back to my AVENT manual pump- abit irritated...

I do get hungry very often...but sometimes work is so busy that I forget about my hunger.. During my pregnancy, I gained 17 kg..and now I've lost 20 kg..think everything went to the boys. My fren is asking me to take supplements but I dun like...hee.. Thanks for all your encouragement..should...

Thanks, MummyJan...I'm having twins- 2 boys. Both are 4 months old tomorrow..
