Twin Growth Update August 1st 2007

Sydney and Kiley

The Girls are growing FAST! The exponential weight gain has even surprised our Doctor, both girls are doing great!


We saw Dr. Delair for Sydney and Kiley's one month check up.

Sydney is now 8lbs 3oz (after weighing 6lbs 8oz at birth)

Kiley is now 6lbs 15oz (after weighing 5lbs 5oz at birth)



Both girls are sleeping about 3 hours at a time once during the night and usually once during the day now, otherwise it is about 2 hours a time still. So 3 hours feels like 8 did before! Donna is doing the night feedings which allow me to sleep. I have been trying to do the morning feeding to give her a break although I have not been very successful at keeping Donna in bed since the crying girls always wake her up. We are trying to be disciplined at keeping the girls on the same schedule. Sleeping, feeding, changing and bathing.






They are starting to wake each other up with KungFu moves, sucker punches (like above) and loud screams. We have had to seperate them into thier own portable cribs for sleeping because they are now too heavy to be together. It will not be long at this rate before they are driving.
