Hi everyone. I'm a dad of 9-month-old twins and I'm the primary caregiver for them. This forum seemed like the best one to learn about twin parenting and share twin info.!

 

Welcome! This is such a wonderful site and great source of information! Congratulations on your twins - boys, girls, or both?

 

Welcome!!

Oh yeah...they're both girls. I forgot that I put up photos in the Holiday photo section and not here.

Let's see...the girls were born on March 6 and Saoirse Marie was born first at about 6lbs and Sadie Lee was born second at about 6.7lbs. No problems with them at any point, healthwise, though they lost weight the first few weeks because they weren't getting enough breast milk (we then switched to formula). My wife's a librarian and works full time to bring home the bacon, while I watch the babies during the day and occasionally work as an IT trainer at night. Neither of us has relatives nearby (the closest is about 2 hours' drive away), so it can be a little difficult to get help. That's about all I can think of, offhand.

So glad you found TS! Your baby girls are super cute! How were the first nine months?

 

Welcome. Sounds a little like our household. My husband is a work at home dad (who secretly reads twinstuff, but denies it. ), and I work full time.

Great picture of your daughters.

Actually, the first part of the first 9 months seemed easier than the past couple of months. Now I spend most of my day chasing around crawling babies and making sure they don't get into trouble...and if it's possible then they will!
