My little peanuts are 1 month old! My actual due date was yesterday 😢. I boxed up the preemie clothes and a few leftover preemie diapers. DH couldn't understand why I was saving the diapers (like 12). But they're too cute and I thought the girls might like to put them on baby dolls when they're older.
My twins are so easy, I said. This is a breeze, I said. Ugh. Last night was rough. M apparently decided the hours of 1a and 8a were the best time to try to catch up to her sister's weight.
Also for some reason my bleeding decided to like quadruple last night too. At one point it was running down my leg. Awesome. Not sure what that's about. Final push of a shrinking uterus?
mustloveerica - I can't believe a month already. They are such dolls! Where did you have the best luck with premie clothes? (Just in case we have to make some last minute purchases)

I found a couple of things at Target, carters outlet (packs of onesies), and then someone from our MoM group sold me a few sleepers and some pants. Gerber newborn size onesies run really really small tho. Once I figured that out they pretty much just lived in those. And then carters one size sleep gowns run slim and length doesn't matter so they sleep in those and we'll get some good long use out of them. Other than that I just let them swim in newborn sleepers most of the time. I saved the actual preemie outfits for visiting family and what not.

lotusbee these were my absolute favorite preemie outfits because they convert from gowns to pants. They are from target. I think there was a boy one with dinosaurs on it too.
richzep, your pictures make me want a third. Seriously they are so cute! Where do you live? Because all of your pics are so sunny and I'm OVER Chicago weather. mustloveerica, I have a pack of preemie diapers I was trying to donate but recently opened for DD- they fit her teddy bear perfectly!
schmella do it!! Lol. It's crazy but I wouldn't have it any other way. Having said that, if I had twins first, I'm not sure I'd go for the third. But I really do love the dynamic now that I'm in it. We're in Southern California. This was in Newport Beach. We were blessed with really good weather that day thankfully.

So much cuteness! richzep, always jealous of your amazing pics. mustloveerica, I can't believe they are a month!! schmella, isn't it terrible how few pics we are in?? lotusbee, I got a lot of preemie stuff at Walmart. And my MOTA group, who I love. callmeKD, the bunnies on the butts!! Love.
callmeKD, I wish I could find coordinating outfits like that! So cute!
lotusbee, All of Z's preemie stuff came from Carter's. She had a few things that we just kept reusing. Since we stripped her for every feeding early on, she rarely got them dirty.
lotusbee, my favorite outfits for my 6 lb babies are from old navy. Not quite 'premie' but they're newborn stuff is for up to 7lbs so it fits well without being way too long.
