springtime in calgary starts about may and boy am i glad it has. Where our new house is the community planted hundreds of flowering cherry trees-aka bree in her element surrounded by happy pink stuff. THe boys are getting bigger and i love watching them grow- im so glad we got to take harrison home from the hospital without oxygen and that i got to bond with him too. Hes my little cuddler- and greyson is my curious boy hes so strong holds his neck up and rolls over. They are starting to smile now its one of the best feelings in the world watching your baby babies smile at you. I fall deeper in love with them every day. They started sleeping 5 hours at night now hallelujiah - and they did it the same night weird- must be a twin thing. I get stopped all the time at stores and people ask me questions- so for anyone wondering here are the most common questions and the answers....
Are they fraternal or identical?-fraternal two different eggs- identical is when one splits mine are fraternal because they look different-harrison has brown eyes and greyson has blue eyes. Boy and girl twins are always fraternal
Do twins run in your family?- yes on both sides but its actually the mothers side that matters- my aunt had three sets of twins and my grandmother had twins.
do you dress them alike?- yes i do they look cute- they could probabally tell that by looking at them lol
How much did they weigh when born- greyson was 6.6 and harrison was 7.1-yes i was in a lot of pain :)
Did you use invitro-no
Did you give birth naturally? no i had a c section- Harrison was breach and it puts risk on the other baby when that happens- and its a good thing i had one because harrison was having breathing problems and he would have been second to be delivered- which woud have put huge stress on him- and 411 c sections are awesome! I loved mine yes it hurt after but not bad at all. the scar is very low and hardly visible- i would reccommend it to anyone.- Just be sure if you live in canada to get a private room-i was there three days with the loudest snoring woman on the face of the planet! The spinal was a little scary and weird- you could feel everything but it had no pain- isnt that freaky
so there you go questions answered
