Really? Why? Huh. I'm 27 weeks and have it daily with my tea.

Honey is not recommended for children under 1. I think this is where the misconception happened. It is perfectly safe for pregnant women.

OOpssss, forgot to announce over here - 9/5/11 - Thomas is 7 pounds, 3 ounces and is 21 inches long. Patrick is 7 pounds, 5 ounces and is 22 inches long. Both are happy, good babies so far. So tiny compared to what I'm used to!

That's amazing! Most twins I've seen are half that weight and add up to be 7 pounds for both!

I hate it when they are so sore from feedings and your exhausted! Hoping you feel rejuvenated soon! She must be growing.

Thanks! She is trying to grow.. Plus making up for the one day at the hospital when she was nursing, but not getting anything. I didn't realize she wasn't getting anything and falsly assumed she would fuss if she was hungry. She never did.. Once I realized what was happening, I felt so bad about it. That's when we started supplementing!! Supplementing allows my boobies to rest too!

Ahhhh, a blessing in disguise (sorta!). I know being tired with sore boobs SUCKS, buuuuuuttt, its a good thing in a way. Your baby is THRIVING!!! She is growing and thats a wonderful thing. Im so, so glad she is doing so well! They do tend to have growth spurts and wanna eat ALL the time, then suddenly, it seems like all they wanna do is sleep. I think thats when all the food catches up with them and they have that growth spurt. Get ready to buy or use all the bigger diapers and clothes you have waiting for her!!

Seriously, I do hope you get more rest soon and she gives ya a little break.

Thank you! Yes, she is definately thriving. She gained 10 ounces in 4 days. It is a relief to know she is gaining weight since she was very finicky in the beginning. And as far as the bigger diapers and such, I think I will be safe for a while, yet... She is so tiny that the NB diapers and clothes are all a little to big for her. She was born at 38 weeks 3 days. But I wonder if that is even right since she is so small. Who knows? I may just produce itty bitty babies.. I love it though. She is just a tiny loving handful and that makes it even sweeter when she cuddles up to me!!

Sort of makes me forget how tired and sore I am...
