Carlee and Kalee are now 2 months. Carmen took some precious photos of them together. Most people have thought this is the way they were in my belly... can you imagine?!?
At their check up Carlee weighed in at 7 lbs 7.5ozs and Kalee weighed in at 7 lbs 3.5 ozs. This is the most difference their weight has ever been even when they were in my belly they were always within an oz of each other. Dr Busceme said they are doing great gaining but we are still having to mix their formula stronger at 24 calories to fatten them up a little more. Carlee was 19 1/2 inches long and Kalee was 19 3/4 inches long. All of their measurements put them in the less than 3% category for their age but Dr. Busceme said they would probably catch up around 6 months.
As far as development they are still acting like newborns. They mainly sleep and eat with not much interaction. We are expecting that to change in the next month or so. Both girls are on the same schedule. They are eating about 4 ozs every 3 to 4 hours. We feed both girls at the same time in order to keep them on a strict schedule and for my sanity. At night we put them to bed around 10:30 and they have been sleeping until between 6-7. Most people have a hard time believing this but honestly all my girls have been great sleepers and these are following suit. We co-sleep them so when one gets fussy in the night she gets to get in the bed with us so she doesn't wake her sister.
