If you have B/G twins

Just wondering who sat up unassisted first, crawled , walked, pulled up first etc. and if they are baby A or B. My baby B (Ava) has done everything first, including first tooth. I was curious what y'alls experiences were.

 

My Baby B, Jillian, rolled, sat, and crawled first. She also had the first tooth. My little Brendan is about 2 weeks behind her in the milestones in everything except speech. He has been babbling longer and is beginning to understand who Ma-Ma and Da-Da are as opposed to just randomly saying it. He also says "hi" and waves to us in the morning.

 

Well I don't have b/g twins, but I am one if that counts. :lol: Anyways, I know that when we were babies, I was the one to do everything first (at least from what I've been told)... sit up, crawl, walk, teeth... I think sometimes I was pretty far ahead, sometimes not that far ahead. And I was baby A.

 

For us, Jack (Baby A) has reached all of his motor milestones just days before Ella. However, she is ahead in terms of speech.

 

Drew (baby A) had done everything first except climb up the stairs, Zoe did that one! Not only did Drew sit up, crawl, walk, and talk first, he also fell of the bed first, climbed and fell out of the crib first, got a black eye first, and had his haircut first! Oh, Zoe did chip a tooth first! She was running trying to keep up with Drew and fell and chipped her front tooth!

 

They haven't had a 'set' pattern yet as to who does what first, second...

Baby A (Dylan) rolled from belly to back 1st and Baby B (Molly) rolled from back to belly 1st.

Baby A sat unsupported (1+/- min), but his legs are chunkier at this point, which I think aided him.

Baby A and B BABBLED, YIPE and SQUEAL about the same.

Baby B stands better with assist.

That's all I have so far, sorry.

 

I would probably have to say Baby B, Trevor did everything first, but only by a few days to a week. But speech wise, Emilie is way past him.

 

Israel (babyA) did, usually followed by Ruthie in about a week or so. It was like she was waiting for him to "test it out" before she did it! LOL!

 

its funny because my son (Baby A) has done everything in precise order of milestones (ie he rolled, then army crawled, then sat, then regular crawled then pulled up, then cruised, then finally walked), but my daughter (baby B) has done things at her own pace, concurrently to her brother (they both sat at the same time, but she learned to pull up and cruise before he did)...they walked within 2 weeks of each other but DS took a few steps at a time and then dropped to his butt, his sister just let go one day and literally started walking around the room!!!

they both teethe at the exact same time...they both woke up one Saturday morning with a bottom tooth and then on Sunday morning with the other one!

speech wise DD was a bit ahead of DS for a while but now they are both babbling and screeching and say a few words....

 

My DD is baby B and she does everything a week or so before her brother. He did get teeth before her, but everything else is her.

 

Ben, baby A, reached all of his major milestones first. However, they both began walking on the same day! Hannah though, is definitely more verbal!

 

Mia has pretty much done everything first. At first she would only do it a few days earlier, (first tooth, rolling) but she sat up confidently long before Jacob did. She also crawled, cruised, and walked well before he did. For example she has now been walking for 6 weeks and Jacob is now just starting to cruise.

It's been Baby A here= DS. First for physical milestones, DD is more of a talker though.

 

Baby B (Jackson) has hit all the milestones first for us

 

Mine have been very close in most milestones. The rolled over for the first time within a couple of days of each other (Elliot first, he's baby A). They sat up within a couple of days of each other. They took their first steps on the very same day . . . but then it took Clarissa (baby B) about 2 months to start to walk for real, and Elliot didn't really walk for another two months after that.

Clarissa got 2 teeth months before Elliot got any.

They both babbled and used 2 or 3 words at the same time, but then Elliot started to speak for real months before Clarissa did.

Now that they are bigger we find that Clarissa is ahead on gross motor skills. She can run, jump, and climb much better than her brother. She's also completely caught up with him on language skills.

Baby A= Anthony, did these first:

roll, either way
say mama, dada, smile, laugh, babble
go from sitting to belly
go from belly to sitting
crawl

Baby B=Angelina, did these first:

Pretty even, right??

 

Sat up unassisted...Emma(a)
Crawled...Jake(B)
Pulled up...Jake(B)
Walked...Jake(B)
First word...Emma(a)

ETA...that smiley got me again! B)=b

 

Baby A (Katherine) did everything first, usually 2 weeks before Michael.

 

Sophie (baby B ) did everything first to begin with. She smiled , held her head up , held her own bottle and sat up first. Then at around 8 months Jack ( baby B ) took over. He crawled, pulled himself up and walked first. Jack cut his teeth 2 months before Sophie but she has more than him (12 to his 10). They both started babbling around the same time but Sophie can say a few more words than Jack. So i guess they are kind of even now! x

This is the same for us. Connor (baby A) was first on everything except speech.

 

My skinny mini boy (A) reached most milestones first. My chunky monkey (B) girl walked first.

 

Mine were actually split.

Blake (Baby B) sat first and crawled first.

Katelyn (Baby A) pulled up first and walked first.

 

Baby B McKenna reached all her milestones first. Apparently according to the nicu, thats backwards since baby b is usually the sicker one. They told me A is usually the healthier one and the one to reach milestones first (don't know where they heard that from???) McKenna has always been the more stubborn one and doesn't want anyone doing anything before her.

 

Mikayla Baby B = Drank from a regular cup first.

Mikayla Baby B= Crawled first

Mikayla Baby B= Walked first

Mikayla Baby B= Talked first (first words)

Michael= Climbed first

Michael= Got his tooth first, but Mikayla was within days (2 days later) of him



Bridget

 

Chloe (Baby A) did pretty much everything 2 - 3 weeks ahead of Bryce, with the exception of cutting that first tooth. I don't know if it's an order thing or a girl thing, but he was just behind her on pretty much everything.

 

baby B dylan reached all the major milestones first...

 

Baby A - My DD has done everything first, sit up, stand, crawl, walk. Baby B- My DS got his teeth first.
