    Twins.

    you are blessed if they both sleep together and are fed together.i remember the times of sterilising 24 bottles a day and buying milk powder in cases.our had the habit of feed one change put to bed ,then as your eyes were closing number two woke up and needed feeding and changing . so a four hour cycle became a two hour cycle ... bliss. one night after a long hard day i crashed out at 6pm and was woken by my daughter trying to get milk out of my tit... no result but the picture will remain in my head for a long time. wife and twins in a kinsize is dangerous!!!!!
