    As the girls are now 7months i took them along to our local church to get them weighed and let them have a play with the other babies, it was great and i'm so pleased i went (alone) we had lots of fun socialising and i feel confident that i could go to any social gathering on my jonesum in the future!!

    So Amber's weight is phenomenal! She weighs a hefty 18.14lbs and is on the 91st centile :) Not bad going to say she started out on the 25th!! Her height is great too she started out on the 2nd and is now on the 75th!

    Ruby is such a trooper! She wasn't even in the running when she was bornat just 3.5lbs but she is now on the 75th centile for weight! Her height started out on the 0.4th centile and she is currently running along the 35th!!

    I am so happy to say my teeny tiny babies are now "fully caught up and are above avearage in size" :woo:

    I did have some concerns with Ruby's feet, she is not bearing any weight on her legs and her toes are constantly scrunched up. The health visitor i spoke with told me not to worry right now as she is sort of like a prem baby as she stopped growing at 30wks (iugr), so to allow for some development delays. They both have a 9month review, he said that if she was still the same then he might be a little more concerned but for now she is just perfect!

    I am so proud of how far they have come, you would never beleive i used to struggle to get them to keep weight on! They actually looked bi next to some of thhe other babies :D
