All About My Multiples: Pregnancy & Birth

I gave birth to my twin boys on November 15, 2007 at 37 weeks to the day and they were VERY healthy boys. Aiden weighed in at 7lbs 3oz and Evan weighed 6lbs 12oz. Even from the beginning they have always been very different in their personalities but the older they get the more I see them relying on one another and it's really neat to see.

My Multiples Are Special Because...

My boys are very special because when they were born almost 2 years after our daughter they completed our family of which we never thought we would have. We had over 8 years of infertility struggles and several losses so we are VERY blessed to have the family we have today.

Advice

  • Is there advice??? This is what I hear all the time from parents of GROWN twins: "You WILL make it!!"
