I am concerned for the safety of my family, therefore I have removed my pictures. Thank you for all the comments of my girls!

They are precious!! Good for you for nursing with donor breast milk, too!! I also have a daughter who was born at 32 weeks (now 15 months, 13 adjusted) and I nursed her for 6 months exclusively with the Lact-Aid system. We used formula and I also induced lactation, so she got a little breastmilk, too. Congrats!!!!!!!

They must be identical, right?? They are absolutely gorgeous!! You are rightfully proud!

Congratulations on finally getting your miracles, and great job nursing them!

so much for all the !!! And the beautiful comments of our girls! Yes, they are identical! In case you couldn't "quite" tell! heehee! It took us forever to be able to tell them apart! People would ask us, "oh you can tell them apart because I'm their mommy right??!! : And I would have to say "nope"! But now I can tell them apart.

Another funny thing is that we had so many people (a lot of them from our church! : ) ask us which "formula" the girls were on!!! It was classic when I would tell them they were not on formula but breast milk!!! So many wanted to ask "how", but didn't!

Stephanie--how are you feeling? You must be so big now! I hope your pregnancy is going well. I haven't seen you on FF for awhile, so I'm glad I found you here!

Hi! I remember you as OurDoubleandTripleBlessing from FF. You were soliciting breastmilk, but I think your membership ran out or something. How is it going?

Hi! I too BF my baby, however I used my milk (I induced lactation). Glad to meet others who share the joy ofadoption!!! BTW, Drihan was preemie too(1 mo.) but had no extended stay. Although we live in CT, our baby was adopted from Dallas. I found people more curious as DH and I are both CC and she obviously is full AA and I nursed in pubic ALL the time. I can only imagine what went through their heads.
