FAQ About My Twins

Multiples have always been a topic of interest for most people. When they are seen they are ohh'ed and ahh'ed over. If people get a chance there's always a few questions they love to ask. So here you go... Frequently Asked Questions about my Twins and their answers.


  1. Are they twins? Yes.
  2. Are they Identical? No. They are fraternal, meaning they came from two separate eggs fertilized by two separate sperm, aka they look different.
  3. Are they natural? Well this isn't artificial twinning here.
  4. Which one is older? Georgia by a minute if that's important to you.
  5. Do twins run in the family? This question is always hard for me to answer because the short answer is yes, my husband is a twin. The real answer is he doesn't play any part in whether or not we have twins. Every woman in the world has a chance at having identical twins. It's a matter and chance of an already fertilized egg splitting. For fraternal twins, the mother has to release two eggs at the same time. 
  6. Did you purposefully make their names match? No. Georgia's name was picked out long before she was even a thought, and Olivia's name was harder to come by. It's by chance they end the same but we did however want the names to complement each other. 
  7. Why don't you dress them the same? Because they are individuals and shouldn't have to be the same all the time just because they were born at the same time. 
Those are the questions I get asked most. I know they'll have a ton more when they get older, like can you read each others minds and if one gets hurt can the other feel it. Silly. I do hope they have an extremely close and special bond though.

28 Weeks Pregnancy Update

Only 10 weeks to go!! Sometimes I cannot believe how far along I am. 28 weeks, and it seems like just yesterday we were telling everyone we were pregnant. Aside from sever morning sickness in the first trimester I haven’t had any more pregnancy complications. PTL On Tuesday January 16 th we had a growth ultrasound to check on the kiddos and make sure they’re still growing on track. It was pretty routine with all the pictures they were taking. They measure their heads, stomachs, lengths of arms and legs and checked their hearts again. Everything is looking good. Both my little girls weighed 2lbs 9oz, I was kind of shocked by this because Baby B has always been my bigger baby, but A is definitely keeping up now. Baby B still measures out a little longer than A but not by much. They are 46 th and 47 th percentile. This is great news for us as now our OB is watching to make sure one or both babies don’t fall behind on the growth charts. Pregnant moms always worry about their ba...
