Road trip

Having insisted that Chris takes a couple of hours extra sleep in the morning, she was woken by a health visitor for a chat and to weigh the babies. Sophie is nearly back to birth weight and Matthew has put on a decent amount of weight too.


In the afternoon we stuffed the twins into their car seats and popped round the corner to our first NCT group afternoon coffee.

We had a lot of fun showing off our little treasures. Although we were first in our group to deliver, two other new mums have also there, so there was plenty to chat about and notes to swap. Must be pretty weird for the mothers-to-be though, twiddling fingers and watching the days go by. But it’s so worth the wait!

Oh yes, Matthew’s cord stump fell off today. Typically, and unlike his little sister’s, it was a messy affair, but I’m sure he’ll have a cute little belly button soon.
