    2.5 yo b/g twins. Constant fighting

    Ever since they turned 2... It's been nonstop fighting. I literally cannot turn around for 5 seconds or someone is pulling out wads of hair, hitting with a toy, wrestling the other one to the ground... It's mostly boy twin attacking girl twin, but not always. She instigates a lot by stealing a...

    Anyone else… just tired?

    I’m 27 weeks with mo/di girls. Things are going well and they are measuring ahead (estimated 2.5 pounds each as of today!) My MFM seems to think we have potential to make it all the way to 37 weeks. The prospect of that is just daunting. I’m exhausted and everything hurts and I can’t imagine...

    They're here!

    At 34 + 3, di/di boys came by c-section yesterday on 4/20/2024 (yes my husband is a 13yo boy at heart and yes he was excited). Two weeks of contractions that kept going down from 10 to finally 5 minutes apart, anti-contraction meds, a round of bethametasone for their lungs, and then finally...

    "They slept like angels, they always do!"

    That's what my mum always says when she has our twins for the night and they generally have always been really good sleepers but sometimes after a couple days of trouble getting them to sleep I wonder if she's messing with me. They used to sleep in a pack n play in her room but at 5 months she...

    Twin B 1 week behind at 10 week scan

    I just had my 10 week ultrasound, and twin B is measuring at 9 weeks. Twin A is measuring at 10 weeks, as expected. My twins are di/di from two eggs implanted via IVF, so there's no chance of a different gestational age. Both had heart rates of around 170-180bpm. Has anyone else had one twin...

    What in the world do you all feed your 9 and 10 month olds? I’m at a loss, PLEASE HELP!

    So, my twins just turned 9 months. One has no teeth yet and is incredibly picky and will push away almost everything I give him. The other just started to get a couple of teeth and is a bit less picky. I’ve asked a similar question before and read other posts, and everyone says they just give...

    Help: WFH while pregnant w/ 2

    Bit of a strange question, but does anyone have advice for what they used to hold say their laptops and such while doing what I call WWM (working while massive)? I’m lucky enough to work from home but now that I’m in my third tri with twins, I find myself so uncomfortable each day trying to find...

    Sleep n' Plays

    Ok so my 7 month boy/girl twins are pretty tall and are barely fitting into their Sleep n' Play outfits which are size 9months. I've been looking high and low for size 12 or 18month Sleep n' Play outfits. Those that I have found are too long, like REALLY long and very slim-fit. There's a huge...

    Uk: 3 car seats again

    Hi, the lease on our Ford S-Max is coming up so we are currently looking for alternatives, made slightly worse by Diesel Gate, We ended up with the S-Max when our twins were born as it was one of the only cars which could squeeze in 2x group 0 and a group 1 in row 2. Now the twins are nearly 3...

    Insurance question

    Hi, all! FTM, B/G di/di twins :) New to this group. Excited to finally be at this point after a very long journey. I will be moving when I'm around 28 weeks to the east coast to be closer to family, as I am basically single parenting on the west coast and don't have postpartum support. I could...

    I have mixed feelings 🥺, I went to my OB 2 weeks ago and we saw baby A And baby B moving we even heard their heartbeat, this week we went to the perinatal center for the first screening we were so excited about it and we found out that baby B stopped growing. What we can’t explain and the dr...

    I’m hearing a lot of people having miscarriages with single baby’s at 4 months

    Anyone else have experience with miscarriages after 12 weeks? Especially with twins. It’s scary hearing people with single babies having miscarriage at nearly 4 months.

    Jogging stroller: BOB, BabyJogger or Thule?

    We got a tandem stroller before the twins were born and it is a huge pain! Looking to upgrade to a double jogging stroller now that they are 6+ months and about 20lbs each… and trying to decide between the Thule Urban Glide 2, BOB Revolution Flex 3.0 Duallie and the BabyJogger x3 summit. We do...

    What to do when 7 m/o screams at sleep every night?

    My wife and I became parents of a twin boy and girl 7 months earlier. For almost the last three months, my son has been screaming almost every night (four nights a week to the very least) as loud as his tiny heart allows. It looks like he is sleeping since his eyes always stay close. He wakes...

    How to keep a fair and equal relationship between myself and the twins?

    I have twins (2.5f) and a singleton(6 month f) I got to hold twin A for a minute before she was brought to the intensive care and only looked at twin b for 30 seconds. They were both bottle fed and I always found twin a harder to settle and twin b easier. My connection with them has never...

    37 weeks, twin girls, natural or section?

    Baby A is head down and ready to meet the world. Baby B is transverse, laying on top of baby A. Ob is insisting on a C section in 9 days. There is a 50% chance baby B will be breech. The doctor is adamant about the planned C section, because she wants to avoid the risk of baby B going...

    No more cribs (2.5 y/o twin boys)

    Today our twin sons learned how to climb out of their crib beds. We knew this was on the horizon, but didn’t think it was happening this summer. We decided it was probably safest if we just disassembled the cribs and placed the mattresses on the floor until we figure out how to approach this...
