6 months old today!

Well it all happened six months a go, 10 weeks prem. I wont go over all the details again as the background is here:

Anyway, I managed a couple of snaps before I left for work. I thought I had the original pics I took just after birth but they must be on my PC at home, I'll add them later to show the difference. Anyway:

This is Aimee, she was 1lb 11oz at birth, at her last weigh-in a couple of weeks a go she was 8lb 10oz. She's doing really well (touch wood) and has really kicked-on since coming home. Now with then and now pics!

Ethan six months earlier:

His birth weight was 3lb 10oz (I think ), last weigh-in was 17lb 1oz. Ethan is doing really really well. He's more in line with his actual age rather than corrected though of course progress could slow.

I can't believe it's six months, the change is remarkable.

Beautiful babies! Thanks so much for sharing.

No problem, as you can see Aimee was more or less the size your LO is now. We had to take Aimee out as she had little fluid and wasn't really moving. It's not easy going but like I said in your thread they really do fight.
