         OMG TWINS!!!!
wow its been so long since ive been on a computer lol busy being mummy :)
yes the twins are here!! ill write  the jist of it lol after having to stay in hospital in Canberra for 4 weeks after going into preterm labour at 30weeks i got out on good behaviour for two weeks yay then went back on the 5th of June to stay for the 10 days till my scheduled Csection . after a whole lot of trouble with our psycho neighbour we were moving house which Aaron was doing with some friends and my parents on the 6th and 7th  so our biggest fear was my water would break while they were moving guess what........

MY WATER BROKE WHILE THEY WERE MOVING!!

lol for the whole week id been so heavy and in pain and could barely walk lol so mum drove me in on the 5th and left the next morning telling me to stay in bed that day as id been feeling off so i spent the day sleeping and eating lol had a long hot shower and braided my hair and got back into bed to knit the second baby blanket and i only got the the first row done as the bubs were moving and it hurt soo bad so i rolled to get out of bed and felt a POP then a gush followed by another and called mum in tears
 "mum i think my water just broke!"         "oh no calm down its ok have you rung Aaron yet?"
after calling him 20 times i figured he wasn't gonna answer and tried everyone i could think of no answer!! so after calling mum back she said she would go get him and bring him to the hospital (about 3 hours driving all up) and told me to ring the front desk and get them to send an orderly with a wheelchair to the residency to get me but as i was in shock i guess i walked myself across the road at about 20 to 1 in the morning in the Freezing cold in my nightie and ugg boots with a rolled up towel between my legs to catch the water lol eventually after getting hooked up and checked out and the doctors called i was contracting pretty regularly and they finally got to the hospital at around 5.15am on the 7th by that time i was in alot of pain and they figured out who was going to do my csection so at 36weeks 4days

 Dominic Lawrence was born at 6.30 am 2290g and 46cm long and

Piper Leslie was born at 6.32am 2505g and 46cm long

we spent 6 days in the hospital 3 of those they had nasal feeding tubes but were in my room the whole time NO NICU!! and other than the tube top ups and 6 bottles in the first 2weeks when i was desperate for sleep I've been exclusively breast feeding which has been tough sometimes what with blocked ducts and thrush but we are still going strong at 3months :)
