    After spending the last 10 weeks of no more than 3hrs sleep and working shifts, (I wouldn't have it any other way, I worship my boys), I was just wondering if there's any other Makems out there going through a similar experience ?

    Danny, been there & done it mate, you always manage.
    Seems like yesterday when my first was born, I missed her birth as it was only a 40 minute labour, she's 18 now.

    My second, our Niall was the first I'd seen born. Fantastic experience.
    Met SKP in Durham hospital as his Julie had the twins the day before.

    You'll manage your shifts mate, nee bother.

    I have 14 week old twins, to be honest me and mrs hit rock bottom 3 weeks back, at that stage asked for help from family, my mum came down from seaham, we started to spread feeds out, put them down at night straight away, feed in dark and tried to dictate to them (granted not the easiest). They both sleep a little longer and ok not all night but vast improvement. One piece of advice, remember to give your mrs a hug every so often......oh and enjoy the smiles from the young uns.....it goes along way to making it worth while. Still have ups and downs but know how it feels; be worth it all when you take em to their first game. Hang in there.
