I always call them 'boys' collectively and wonder what I'll be calling when there's a girl too! 'Children'?!!

Yup!! I do the same thing! LOL I'll be slipping up on that one too and giving her a complex!

yeah i do that, i always call them boys,
"settle down boys"
"boys, that enough"
"boys, quiet down please"

that sort of thing...lol

Nearly bedtime and I'm so hoping for a 'normal' dream tonight - last night I dreamed about cooking a roast dinner ffs! The chicken wasn't properly cooked (and I was checking it in great detail!) and the roast potatoes were a disaster lol!

Z, I think the new name is perfect!!!!!!!!!!! LOVE IT!!!

I keep having very vivid dreams that I'm pregnant (well, which I am), but that I'm having a girl...they are very real, and when I wake up each morning...I'm always like....well my dreams seem to think this is a girl....so maybe my unconcious knows something!

my boys were all a few days old before i named any of them, so i guess it will be the same this time.

i have an active little person in me ATM, had the hiccups last night for about 15 mins, was really cool...:)

the one thing i really hate about being team green, is the 'IT' factor, i hate not being able to say he or she , or his or her, its always 'the baby' or 'it', it just dosent feel right to refer to it as he or she if we dont actually know if it is a he or she.....

I still say 'them' or 'they'....still struggle to say girls/she, even though my scan was so much more reassuring, it still feels odd to say she/girls.

DM, They are like ur wee one and kick the insides of me something shocking when I get into bed!! Can't sleep sometimes. Esp twin 1, the most active out the 2, really goes for it and prob does sommersaults, whilst quiet wee twin 2 hiccups! After I eat they seem extra active too.

What is it with pg and vivid/weird dreams!! Never had dreams like this when pg before (that I remember anyway).
Auroara, our weird dreams are maybe a girly sign???? Anyone shed any light? Did u have odd dreams when pg with boys?

Has anyone been getting contractions already? I have been getting them once in a while, but last night I was getting a lot. I started to get worried because I am only 26 weeks. I drank a lot of water and laid on my left side. I was counting them in case I needed to call the dr. I did have like 7 one hour but the next hour was 4 and the next one 2 so I figured they were stopping. I had these contractions with my daughter, but never so many at a time. Does anyone know at what point to call the dr or go to the hospital with these braxton hicks contractions?

I'm almost 26wks and think I've had a odd 'mild' braxton hick, get really really tight upper bump feeling and then it passes. Don't remember them as soon before, but never had 2 in there before! x

Ahhhh, yes...I remember that unique feeling of having TWO babies moving around inside me. I like to joke that my boys have been fighting with each other since before they were born. I would regularly feel Twin B kick Twin A, then poor Twin A would come bulging out on my side from the force. :bigsmile:
