    Spin off of Twinnylou's post (but I have been wondering it for awhile); what is the weight difference between your twins now and at birth?

    For example Mine weighed the same when they were born at 4 lbs 13oz.
    Now they are about 2lbs apart, Ben being heavier.

    Mine had a difference of 1 1/2 lbs. It was up to 3lbs but my little one is trying to close in on her big sister, now it's a little under 2 1/2 lbs.

    They were less than an ounce different at birth....7.1 and 7.2, my daughter being the heavier of the two. She is still heavier, but only by about 10 ounces.

    Lauren was 4 oz. bigger at birth, but Emma caught up quickly. At 6 months Emma was 11 oz. bigger but everyone that sees them swears that Emma is "SOOOOOOO much bigger". She has bigger cheeks and a bigger head.

    At birth McKenna was bigger by 3oz. Genevieve caught up at 3 weeks, but not for long. Now McKenna is 6 oz bigger. But Genevieve is almost a full inch and a half longer, so she looks way smaller when they're side by side!

    Well you all know the difference between my 2 (6lbs 9) they were only a 1lb apart at birth. So does anyone else have this big a weight difference under a year old? x

    The most mine have ever been apart in weight was 8 ounces. They were born 4 ounces apart, and currently hover within 4-6 ounces of each other. Their height is pretty much always the same too.

    Not identical though, definitely fraternal.

    I know K&K are too old to really play along but I just can't stay away from threads like these, at birth they were 1 pound 4 ounces different, at 9 months they were 10 pounds different (15,25) and now at 5 years they are [SIZE=10pt]30[/SIZE] pounds different!
