Latest News on the twins:

My wife is 29 weeks pregnant, and she went into labour 20 minutes ago, at the hospital now (using my iPad). Can't wait but just been told that chances are they will be critical being so early (8 weeks early according to the ideal twins pregnancy length on BabyCenter). keep your fingers crossed!!! will keep you informed

Three months ago you posted that she was 8 weeks pregnant (10/31/2012). So they should only be 21 weeks old... right? Or were you two months off back then?

Congratulations! Unfortunate that they came so early :( did they not try to stop her labor? Hope they don't have to stay long in the NICU. I want to see pics!!! lol :)

thanks Xero.

there are one or two issues the biggest being the fact that Connor has a slightly smaller heart than Harry, and this has meant that there have been one or two problems there. Good news is that other than that they're doing well and there is no longer any concern however they want to keep them in NICU until next thursday just in case. I'll be adding some photos in the next few days to my profile.

I'm glad to hear things are going reasonably well. I must be hard not to be able to take them home, but at least it doesn't sound like there are serious issues...

Edited to add: Xero, your boys look so much alike its crazy. It's like you photoshopped two photos of the same boy at different ages together :eek:

Haha!! Thanks Singledad I agree they definitely can't deny each other!! Lol :D

I am glad to hear there are no real major issues! That's great! And next Thursday, that will be hard but really it's not too bad considering their age. :)
