When did you deliver? 38w3d Vaginal, section or both? Elective c-section, both were vertex, Bishop score was zero, so induction was incredibly unlikely to work anyway, but both girls were showing signs of distress What were the birth weights? 6lbs 12oz and 6lbs 8oz, both were 20 inches long Did they spend any time in NICU? No. We went home 24 hours after my c-section. What’s their relative (to each other) size now? At 5.5 years old: 6lbs 12oz baby is now 43 pounds and 45ish inches 6lbs 8oz baby is now 41 pounds and 46ish inches Do they look or act similar? One has brown hair, brown eyes, and has a darker complexion like my DH. The other has blonde hair, blue eyes, and has a fair complexion like me. Their personalities are very different as well with one more outspoken, while the other is shy. One more girly and artistic, while the other is athletic and sports oriented. One whines, the other sulks. Both are precious and I'm so lucky to be their mom. I can't believe they are going to Kindergarten this year! |

When did you deliver? 36 weeks Vaginal, section or both? C-section. They kept losing Kathryn's heartbeat. She wasn't responding well to the contractions. What were the birth weights? Kayla 5 lbs 15 ounces, Kathryn 5 lbs 13 ounces. Did they spend any time in NICU? No What’s their relative (to each other) size now? At the last checkup, I believe Kayla was 9 lbs 11 ounces and Kathryn 9 lbs 9.5 ounces. Do they look or act similar? They are fraternal, but damn, they look so much alike. My husband has trouble telling them apart. I usually forget who I did what with when I am tired in the middle of the night.  Their personalities seem almost the same. Kayla is a little more needy.

Stats When did you deliver? 36 weeks. Vaginal, section or both? C-section. They were breech, sitting and facing each other. What were the birth weights? Kyle was 4lbs 13oz and Kevin was 5lbs 13oz. Did they spend any time in NICU? Kyle spent one night What’s their relative (to each other) size now? Kyle is 5' 9" 142lbs and Kevin is 5' 8' and 178lbs. They are 14. They have gone back and forth with height, each being taller than the other at some point. Kevin has always been heavier. Do they look or act similar? No! Could not be more different. Kyle is tall and very thin with blond hair. Kevin has a much larger frame with dark brown hair. We joke that the only thing they have in common is their parents. Kyle is right handed and Kevin is a lefty. Kyle is super outgoing and Kevin is much more the loner type. Even on their report cards, where Kyle has his highest grades, those are Kevin' lowest and vice versa. |

When did you deliver? 38.5 weeks Vaginal, section or both? Vaginal. Seth was head down, tyler was transverse. Pushed Seth out normally and the doc gloved up and pulled tyler out. He ended up as a footling breech birth. What were the birth weights? 6 lbs 5oz, and 6lbs 7oz I think. Did they spend any time in NICU? Nope What’s their relative (to each other) size now? Although Seth was bigger when born, Tyler now outweighs him a good 8-10 lbs and a couple inches taller. Do they look or act similar? [b]They look like brothers, and act completely differently. Seth is the quiet, imaginative play one. Tyler's the wild rambunctious one. Though oddly enough Tyler is my reader and Seth couldn't be less interested.[b] |

When did you deliver? 34 weeks. Vaginal, section or both? C-section. My peri said he'd recommend a c-section (if the babies were to be born that early and with one baby breech), but my OB wanted me to have them vaginally. I was in labor for quite some time (in severe pain, and in and out of the hospital for more than a day) before I'd dilated enough to have an epidural. Then, my contractions stalled, and they wanted to turn the epidural down. At that point, I couldn't handle any more pain, so my OB went ahead and did the c-section. What were the birth weights? 6 pounds 4 ounces and 5 pounds 12 ounces Did they spend any time in NICU? Yes. DS was there 11 days, and DD was there 4 days. What’s their relative (to each other) size now? DD (who weighed less at birth) is taller and lighter. DS is about an inch shorter and weighs a couple pounds more. Do they look or act similar? No and no. DD is quiet and thinks about things a lot. DD is Miss Personality, and prefers interacting with people.

What’s their relative (to each other) size now? They have always been within half an inch in height and within a few ounces in weight. Phoenix feels MUCH heavier, though, and looks bigger. I think they are both around 24-25 lbs now, probably with Phoenix half a pound heavier. |

When did you deliver? 30 weeks, due to toxemia Vaginal, section or both? Emergency c-section. What were the birth weights? 3lbs 1/2oz & 2lbs 11oz. Did they spend any time in NICU? Yes, seven weeks. What's their relative (to each other) size Very close, the most they have been different in height is a half an inch, weight was different as babies as twin-twin transfusion had started so Abs was slightly bigger. Now it's really, really close. Do they look or act similar? They look identical. Arenne's face seems to be shorter and longer, but it's hard to tell. They are completely different girls though.
