I Had My Girls!

It's been over a week, but you all know how hectic it is at first Wink

Ava Elisabet and Lillian Raine arrived via c-section due to Ava being breech and breech extraction being impossible because of the location of her cord on January 6, 2011 at 7:30 and 7:31am at 36w5d gestation. Ava was 4lb 12oz and Lily was 5lb 9oz. Both scored 8 then 9 on their Apgars No NICU time required!! Big Smile Both were great feeders in the beginning but by the evening of night 2 I started to get engorged and they somehow forgot how to latch. We're still working on the latch, but tandem feeding is just around the corner and I CANNOT wait, cuz this hour and a half to feed both is not cutting it! Smile

I'm pretty sure they're not identical, but it seems no one else can tell them apart. DH and I think they look as different as different can be!

Ava, Lily

Lily, Ava

They are SO BEAUTIFUL! Congratulations!!!! I think they look like they could possibly be identical, but its hard to tell. They definitely look a lot alike.

Congrats! They are beautiful! Glad to hear they are healthy too. Surprisingly my girls looked a lot alike when they were born (except for their size - one was about a lb and a half bigger). We have trouble telling who is who in some of their pics from the hospital. But now they look completely different - they have different color eyes, hair, etc. So you never know!
