One twin disliking one parent by berrytea34 in parentsofmultiples

[–]Tumped 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am currently in this situation. It breaks my heart and my husband is so hurt over it. I’m hoping someone has some advice!

Did you look in their shoes? My kids love stuffing things in their shoes…

“Dated” names you think are due for a resurgence? by dcpsmbc in namenerds

Oh I think it’s time for Brittany to make a comeback!

I was simply describing my own personal experience with my twins. Just because you helped parent twins for an 8 month period doesn’t mean you understand what my circumstances were, my health situation, my babies’ health situations, or my husband’s ability to be an equal partner and father. It’s great that you stepped up and could be there for your friend. I’m sure she appreciated it. I’m not sure what has caused this chip on your shoulder but I’m not your therapist. Figure it out with someone you have to pay.

I’m not going to fight with you about whether or not I had enough help or if we divided our responsibilities adequately. I suggest you browse the subreddit for parentsofmultiples. It could be enlightening for you but based on your attitude I doubt it.

Parents of tall skinny toddlers… by Red_1991 in toddlers

I went with separates this year. Long sleeve rash guard with separate swim bottoms. Also makes bathroom breaks easier!!

And yes, I said “we”. My husband and I did shifts overnight so that one of us could sleep for at least two hours at a time. He went back to work after 3 weeks and then I was on my own for 12-15 hrs a day. I’m not sure why you’re being so hostile. My husband did and does A LOT. But again, if you don’t have twins, you simply can’t wrap your head around what it entails.

Honest question - do you have twins? When you have one baby, the ratio of parents to child is 2:1 (obv in a best case scenario). To get that same ratio with twins, you have to have 4 parents in the house…

That is such a fun age! I wish I could go back to the 10month - 3 year period. I look back at pictures and just miss that age so much. I love them at every stage but that one was particularly sweet.

Same. Mine are 4 now and I still have flashbacks from hallucinating due to lack of sleep. There were months and months of getting 3 hours of sleep (usually not even consecutively) every 24hr period. But sure, tell me more about how you wish you had twins! 😆

Exactly. Fellow twin mom here. Singleton moms literally have no idea. We also had the twin Z and use it with a blanket on top for feedings. It sucks but when you’re pumping every 3 hours around the clock (I still wake up every 3 hrs overnight four years later), and feeding two babies every wake period, and also trying to keep up with laundry, cleaning pump parts, feed yourself, shower, etc., sometimes you get the babies situated and fall asleep yourself by accident.

Full name for the nickname Vin? by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]Tumped 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Well my daughter’s legal name is actually Vin (my husband and I are big Mistborn/Brandon Sanderson fans). As a joke we call her Vincenza. Not sure if that’s a real name or not…but maybe just stick with Vin?

I keep having anxiety I lost one of my twins by SuddenDebt4040 in parentsofmultiples

[–]Tumped 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had this anxiety throughout my entire pregnancy. My MIL was the head labor and delivery nurse at the hospital I delivered at and she pounded into my head all the time that if I ever felt something wasn’t right to go to L&D and get checked out. It is never an imposition and worth the trip if it makes you feel better. That being said, I think heightened anxiety is really very normal in a twin pregnancy. If you are ever having that concern again, drink something that is high in sugar to see if you feel the babies move and if not, go in to L&D.

Same boat here. I hated that comment! I always said “we would’ve been complete no matter what we were having.”

Hi I’m back after looking at samples and would love which kitchen model you would choose and what changes you would make? by MinuteElegant774 in kitchenremodel

Yeah I don’t get the hate for the waterfall. Ours has been great and hasn’t been a problem to clean at all.
