Hey hey ladies! Baby B is 7 months now. Crazy. He’s doing great. Getting his first tooth. Holidays were great but so busy. I’m tired. I’m Having some health problems and hoping to get them figured out soon.
TTC 4 years. 7 failed IUI's with either Clomid, Femara and/or Trigger Shots. Started IVF journey in February 2017. Polyps removed in May. 1st IVF Transfer September 26th. BFP. Expected due date 6/14/18. Baby boy born 5/25/18 at 6 lb 9 oz. My bundle of joy.
@SP128 whatever you need, I have you. In the beginning having two is no different than one actually. I tried pumping every 3 hours, as you would with one baby, and that’s what was so hard. But the breastfeeding didn’t work out for me due to low milk supply and latching problems so I bottlefed almost the whole time. I set that alarm so that when those 3 hours hit, I was ready. My only advice for any mom whether you have one two or more babies is - ACCEPT HELP, ACCEPT HELP, ACCEPT HELP!!! Then and only then will you make it without going insane lol.
@KZ1126 We have the twins on a schedule. So these days hubs and I get to sleep about 6 hours at night. People are pushing me to give my 3 month olds cereal and I said Nope! I’ll do it when I, the person that’s their mother, feels it is time. Everyone wants to tell you how to parent your kids smt. But I’m still home for now, so I feed them every 3-4 hours throughout the day, last feed at night is about 11 and they go down about 12. They give us a good 6 hours, then hubs feed them when he gets home from gym and put them back down. They’re up again about 10/11 and we start our day. Twins are work but it’s soooo much fun.

@Holls214 I would love to join the PAIF FB group. I'll send you a message now : )
@mrsa2017 Amen to you being the mother and being able to decide what is best for your babies. It drives me crazy that everyone has their opinions and aren't afraid to share them! 3 months is way too young in my opinion for cereal. We started at 6 months! You get 6 hours of sleep? Your babies are nice to you

Yes, yes come join the fb board!! @Hopeful_mom The whole sleeping thing is so unpredictable and it depends baby to baby! I guess your girl just loves her mama. Someone posted something on one of the fb breastfeeding groups I"m in and it had me balling. I'll try to find it and send it to you if you are interested. Warning: It left me a mess but it made me more understanding of my littles.
