We Are Making Sleep Progress!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hello All

Sorry I have been so MIA lately. I can barely get on the internet these days taking care of these two. Just wanted to give you a little update on my two.

We went to the doctor this week and Kev is measuring 12 lbs 12 ozs and Jack 12lbs 3ozs. They are both 23 inches. They got all the shots at the appt too which broke my little heart, but they seemed to be okay later on after it was all over. The doctor told me that i should try and get them to give up their 1-2AM feeding. The past two weeks the boys were feeding every 3-4 hours, and the nights were so much better then they had been. So last night I decided to give it a try. We fed both boys at 10PM and put them down to sleep. Then they of course started crying at 2AM to be fed. I tried to sooth them with minimal success. So I let them Cry It Out and it WORKED! They fussed on and off, but they did not wake till 5AM to feed! Then they went back to sleep till 8AM. They are exactly 10 weeks today...so ladies there is hope. I remember coming on these boards at like 4-5 weeks and being at the end of my rope thinking this was never going to get better...but it does. I am now a functioning adult during the day as well.

I promise to post pics this weekend if DH will download pics of them. They are so big now that they are already in Stage 2 diapers and out of most of their 0-3 month clothes. I can't believe how fast it goes. I go back to work in 2 weeks too! Crazy.

Oh and if anyone is intersted the Babies R Us in Westbury is having an in-store seminar on multiples next Wed NOv 15th...I think i am going to go. So if anyone is interested let me know.

I do try to avoid that area though, it's so congested and we live in Suffolk but for a multiples seminar I might make the trip.
