Dennism said:Yes, well, that may happen to young children anyway even with one new baby. I wish these young boys long and healthy boys. Congratulations to Claire and Laurent.

I understand now why Claire's belly was so small; the babies are pretty small... Even fot twins their weight is very little. I hope they'll grow very fast!!!
It is not normal for twins, some are much bigger. Mine had roughly the same weight, but were a bit longer. But this does not mean there is anything wrong with them. Mine were not even in a humidicrib. If she had a cortison treatment, which is often done in order to prevent respiratory problems with twins (especially when there is a chance of premature birth), they will probably be fine. Usually they will not be released from hospital until they reach about 2.3 kg just to make sure. They might be kept in neonat for a few days but that is all part of the routine.martha-louise said:That's really a surprise!! I guessed that they would come sooner, but that soon ..!
I was a little bit shocked when I read they only weigh 2kg. I hope that's normal for twins.
Now I can understand why Laurent & Claire weren't present at the batism of Emmanuel
Congrats to the happy parents!!
