But it is natural. Sutton crawled before Avery, but Avery sat up first. They hit milestones back and forth. I am so glad that I am not alone in this. Love hearing from other twin moms and knowing that my twins are on track as well. And my body is wrecked from kids, but I am learning to love it more and more.Sparkles and Latteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12963473872202413760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91257313128798748.post-19596279336478353182016-02-24T11:44:58.310-08:002016-02-24T11:44:58.310-08:00Having had one baby at a time and now two at a tim...Having had one baby at a time and now two at a time.....twins are NO JOKE! My body is bouncing back WAY slower, EVERYTHING is harder.....and you also have ANOTHER job besides them! CANNOT believe someone made a comment about them not walking???? totally in the normal range especially considering how early they were. Although my others walked at 10 and 13 months, my husband did not until 18 months. So I will start worrying at that point. Not much progress on walking over here either.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01588132701362023634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91257313128798748.post-10823767236320008872016-02-23T10:59:21.693-08:002016-02-23T10:59:21.693-08:00I know, right?

I used to make fun of my mom for crying at commercials and ever since I've had kids I find myself crying at commercials, too. #DangYouPublix <br /><br />It's really good to cry, though, because it gets it all out and clears your mind!

And then I went through this phase where I cried probably at least three times a week (I think it was the birth control I was on) and now I'm back to not crying very often, but I can't NOT cry during sad parts of TV shows/movies, which I used to never cry during.<br /><br />Also I think your coworker was out of line saying that!

And their pediatrician didn't walk until 18 months and she is a doctor. I told him that and he is just being an ass. <br /><br />Haha loving the cheap and quick lipo comment. I could use some too. I made a joke to my doctor that when he fixes my hernia on Friday that feel free to give me lipo as well. Free of course. haha.Sparkles and Latteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12963473872202413760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91257313128798748.post-59613044503174882942016-02-23T08:42:40.552-08:002016-02-23T08:42:40.552-08:00I am easy to break as well.

When I was pregnant, my friends used to send me links about dogs who lived amazing lives and got sick and had their ONE last special day and I would cry for hours. I still do at those. Breaks my heart. My heart is more tender now that I have kids for sure. And thank you for saying that about my girls. I know it is true and it is hard to not compare my children to others. They are doing so well and I know that they aren't behind, but it hurts when others say that about them.Sparkles and Latteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12963473872202413760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91257313128798748.post-21577110903819089272016-02-23T08:38:42.912-08:002016-02-23T08:38:42.912-08:00I got worse after becoming a mom too.

We help them stand, use walkers, use our hands to help them walk, etc. They may not walk yet, but they are so very smart. They just learned different things at different times. And yes they were preemie, so we are supposed to go off of their adjusted age which is 12 1/2 months. I just hope they are standing and taking a few steps by Mexico, but if not, no pressure for them. It upset me a lot when he said those things to me.Sparkles and Latteshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12963473872202413760noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-91257313128798748.post-53668144124602513172016-02-23T08:07:50.942-08:002016-02-23T08:07:50.942-08:00I'm mad at your co-worker.

What a jerk. Who is he a doctor? He needs to back the heck off. Cam took steps at 12 months, but didn't walk until 15 months. I have a friend whose daughter didn't walk until later than that. It just depends on the child. Don't let him get to you. If the pediatrician says all is good than that's all that matters. Those girls are amazing and have grown and changed so much since their early arrival. Sutton and Avery are just perfect how they are!
