Adding post count

Hi all,

Im using this code:

<?php
$comments = get_comments('status=approve&number=5');
  foreach($comments as $comment) :?>

  <?php $my_id = $comment->comment_post_ID ; $post_id_comms = get_post($my_id); $title = $post_id_comms->post_title;?> 

    Who: <?php echo($comment->comment_author);?><br />
    About: <a href="<?php echo get_permalink($my_id) ?>#comment-<?php echo $comment->comment_post_ID?>" title="on <?php echo $title ?>"><?php echo $title ?></a><br />
    What they said: <?php echo($comment->comment_content);?><br />
    When they said it: <?php echo($comment->comment_date);?><br />

  <?php endforeach;?>

to output the most recent comments on a homepage but am struggling to find the correct code that also outputs the comment count for each post with a recent comment. All I have managed to do so far is zero for all comments.

Any ideas?
Many thanks.
