LikeAus, thats great news!!

Wilsey, how exciting!!

i am convinced im having 2 girls... have a appt with fetal medicine unit this week as my downs results came back very high again.. i dont think ill have the amnio like i did with Rosa, it wasnt very nice and because bubs have their own sacs i would have to have 2..
but, i do get another scan excited to see the little tuckers again

Aw that is so exciting!!! Why do u think two girls? Would be so neat if u had one of each

Doyle turned 1 yesterday. He weaned pretty easily but I made it breastfeeding for a year. I am quite proud of myself even though Doyle is still on the small side. Now its time for hard diet to lose the pounds before we start trying for baby #2. I am hoping it will be easier than it was to conceive Doyle. It would be wonderful not to have to go to the fertility doctor again but we are planning to find another fertility specialist anywhere between dec-february depending on the job situation. Theres lots of bs happening with hubby's job. don't know if we are staying in the military or not. Will hopefully know soon and I hope it doesn't impact plans for #2 too much. I really want Doyle to have a sibling somewhat close in age.

Yay Go Doyle! When would you want to start trying again? I would love to try again but my husband is an acutary and is currently taking exams to earn his FSA. He studies for 5 months at a time. He just took a exam in may and if he passes he has one more next may. During that time I am pretty much a single parent. So now we have to wait until around sept or after to start trying again.

Yeah, why two girls?

I knew I was having a boy last time but this time I had nothing. I just had no inkling whatsoever. It was sort of weird!

So i put Georgia to bed and she woke up as i put her down, i left her to see what happend and half hr later shes self-settled back to sleep. Thing is i just peeked my head in and shes on her front shud i risk waking her to move her to her back?
Shes only self settled like this once before and its something id like to start encouraging so i dont really want to wake her but im worried as she never sleeps on her tummy normally. Help!

Rosa im thinking girlies for u too! Cant wait to hear what u have in there!
Cant believe theres so much number 2 talk on here already u ladies are addicted

wantanerd how did u go about weaning off the breast? Iv managed to swap the 2 daytime feed for bottles but am reluctant to go the next step and drop the morning and bedtime feeds too. I think we both still enjoy them and i cant be bothered to get up and make a bottle in the morning. Also think she would find it hard to settle at night without the breast.

 

[rosabelle]

happy birthday doyle! I hope your hubbys job gets sorted soon.

Well they are identical apparently so they will be either 2 boys or 2 girls.. and i had a look at rosas scan and with the whole nub theory they are all the same
I will be very surprised if they are 2 boys..
We have our scan tomorrow (may be to early) but apparently the machines in the fetal medicine unit are the best of the best.. so you never know!

 

[Wilsey]

If she can do a push up you have nothing to worry about. If she wasn't rolling or pushing up I would turn her. Will never slept on his tummy but he's all over the show now. They get into the funniest positions.

Enjoy your scan Rosa!

What do you ladies think about the name Amelia Grace Vautier? My hubby suggested Amelia but normally only wants names that have obvious nickname's.. which this doesn't.

 

[rosabelle]

I love the name Wilsey! very pretty and girly
I have one girls name that i like but cant for the life of me think of a second one lol
We Like Layla Mary (mary being my granmas name)

 

[Wilsey]

Thanks

Ohhh I love that. I really like the name Mary for some reason.

I'm having enough trouble with one name, let alone needing two names. And (this may sound stupid) but you sort of want them to be equal in terms of exoticnes, prettiness etc. Does that make sense?

 

[rosabelle]

yeah exaclty!
Like i dont want them to sound the same, or rhyme but i want them to sound nice together..
So we have Rosa Mahlie, i think Layla Mary kinda goes then to think of another twin name..
Boys names are hard to, cause i like Mason but hubby likes Roman and not sure if they sound alright together or not?

 

[jmandrews]

Jo- do not worry. She is old enough to be on her tummy. Evelee has been a tummy sleeper since about 7 months. She probably thinks its more comfy

Wilsey- love that name! I had that on my list before I decided on Everlee. So pretty!

Rosa- yay so excited about your scan! Honestly I like the sound of mason and roman. I love that they are different. I am an identical twin and I wish my name wasn't so close to my twins. It was hard to be viewed as two separate people. Everyone always thought we were the same. Even though our personalities are extremely opposite. I suggest keeping the names different as possible. they will thank you later.

Jo my little girl has slept on her tummy since 5 or 6 months. As soon as she could roll over on her own she started sleeping on it. lol

HAPPY BIRTHDAY DOYLE!!!! Good luck with everything and congrats on making it a year! As for the military good luck with everything. I know how it goes and it can really suck! We are most likely delaying number 2 because of the armys poor planning.

for baby number two!!!!

 

[wantanerd]

Jm- I want to start trying now and we aren't on anything preventing that from happening but with the joys of PCOS, I don't think it will happen without losing weight at the very least. It took two years for Doyle and I really hope its quicker than that but who knows.

 

[rosabelle]

oh thats so cool JM! Are you close with your twin?

I was thinking that giving them their own name is kind of like giving them more of their own identity.
Its so hard though!! picking one name is hard enough haha

I do like Sienna aswell and i think Sienna and Layla are cute together..

Yes! she is my best friend. I am so thankful to be a twin. I don't know what I would do without her. I always had someone there although when we were younger we had our moments of disagreement. We both have baby girls so it has been so much fun. Love those names too! So cute!

 

[rosabelle]

Thats so special! i love it
Well we had our scan yesterday and there were no markers for downs!! yay! they are growing at the same rate and looking really good..
and .... my seems my feelings were right... they saw one gender and looks like we are having 2 little girls

 

[Wilsey]

Wahooo congrats on having more girls!!! Quite the little girly brood you have there

 

[Wilsey]

Question: how long did you ladies have bubba's in your room for? Or do you still? If you moved them out into their own room, what age?

 

[rosabelle]

thanks Wilsey!
I know, poor hubby! haha
nah he is excited, loves his little girls

and we kepy her in out room in the basinet till she was to long at about 4 months, then into her big cot.. we did have a few months where she would wake up at midnight and mainly becuase i was lazy, brought her into our bed for the rest of the night but now she is in her bed all night.. and naps to, she has been doing 3/4 hour naps!! crazy?

 

[armywife11]

Question: how long did you ladies have bubba's in your room for? Or do you still? If you moved them out into their own room, what age?

I moved Laila to her own room at 3 months but if she wakes up in the night and its late or is she wakes up before I am ready to get up for the day I bring her to our room. Just recently (8 months) she started waking up for the day in there, but its not every day yet.
