**Goldie Locks**

Hey, I haven't seen you on here in a while, then again its probably me who haven't been on. :-P Anyhow, I have a quick question for you. When your twins were born, did you keep them in the same feeding schedule ? Did you wake one up if the other was awake hungry to eat? What did you do? Did you let one sleep and fed only the one that was up? i'd love to hear YOUR story! :-P Also, when they went through their growth spurts, Im guessing they were waking up more often to eat. did they return to their regular sleeping schedule after the growth spurts?

  • my boys almost always wanted to eat at the same time- but if one wanted to eat first, we'd wake the other to keep them on the same schedule early on... around 5 weeks we let them sleep as long as each would sleep at night - stretching it out - the 2nd baby would usually wake right after the first was done - so often my DH would just feed both (one after the other) and let me sleep (he's a good man!).

    during the day I tried to keep them on the same schedule always - which wasn't too hard b/c they were both wired to eat every 3 hours.

    growth spurts do throw things off - once you get used to anything they change it up for sure- so you just have to go with the flow and try to maintain a schedule the best you can.

    and yeah- i'm not on much this week- was at a work meeting for a few days, and i'm trying to limit my online use - giving up message boards for Lent I think - maybe just during the day... but going to cut back a LOT for sure- i need to get more stuff done :)

  • Aaw great, thanks for coming on and replying! :) I haven't been on much either and def won't be on much or if at all next week when my DH returns to work and I'll be on my own with 3 kids. I haven't quite figured out a schedule for sanity yet. :-o
