When did your twins start noticing each other?

When we first put our girls together to sleep in the PNP they would immediately turn towards each other. We had to separate them into RNP after a week because of reflus and they just slept better. Now when we face them to each other one might smile at the other while the other would rather stare at a wall lol. They each take turns in each role so its not one staring all the time.

When did they notice that YOU were holding the other? Sometimes one will watch me while Im holding the other. Not sure if its because Im holding their sister or they just like to watch me. Ya know b/c I'm so interesting and all.

Re: When did your twins start noticing each other?

I wish I could give you an answer to this, but the first 8 months are VERY blurry. I Dont remember much in detail of that time. If I had to guess based on pics I would say that they were giggling together in the high chairs at 8 months, so 6 months adjusted. I'm sure they were aware of each other prior, but I can't place it. Form the moment baby B came home from the hospital baby A slept better if they were together. They slept together in a pnp that I angled, due to reflux, for months and months.

I can tell you for sure that they notice each other now. In fact I can baely get one of them to stop pulling the others hair and the hair puller gave her sister a kiss today (not related to hair pulling)

Re: When did your twins start noticing each other?

I think in the past few weeks Ive notived them noticing each other. They are 15 weeks. I put them together for playtime in the morning and they smile at each other and touch each others arms. Ive also noticed when Im feeding one, the other will look at us.. very aware that she's not the one being fed
I dont know what they know but they are defintiely aware of each other now, its adorable!

Re: When did your twins start noticing each other?

I know my girls have to know that Im holding the other because they will look at me like "WTF? pick ME up". But they don't cry (yet) lol.

DH put them in the crib together yesterday and twin 2 was touching twin 1s face very gently like she does to me. Twin 2 got pisssed lol And so it begins

Re: When did your twins start noticing each other?

I've been wondering this same thing! My girls are 7 weeks and they don't seem to pay attention to the other one. When I put them together one will be looking at her sister and the other one is sleeping my girls don't usually sleep with eachother....one takes longer to be put to bed so she always ends up somewhere else (bed, swing, etc)

Re: When did your twins start noticing each other?

Ummm.....I think they really starting interacting with each other when they started sitting in their booster seats. I started solids at that time too. So I'd say 6 months. They'd laugh at each other. Or want what the other had. Etc.

Now, at 21 months old, they are inseparable. If Juliana is with me and Katelyn is with DH in another room she will say "Katie, katie, katie, katie" until I say "Don't worry, she is with Daddy". And then Juliana will stop whatever she is doing to go search the house for her.

Re: When did your twins start noticing each other?

I think they were always aware of each other, but I think at 7 months I noticed they would start giggling at each other playing or in their high chairs. Now, at 15 months they truly love each other. My DS loves giving my DD kisses all the time and they chase each other around the house all day long. They definitely developed their own "Twin Lauguage".

Re: When did your twins start noticing each other?

Welp! I can no longer keep twin 2 in the room while feeding twin 1. lol

Ill feed 2 first then sit her in the bouncer seat while I feed 1. At first she looks at us and smiles. Then she gets mad that she isnt being held. I stop feeding 1 and pick up 2 figuring she has to burp. Nope. Stops crying immediately. I put her back, continue feeding 1 and 2 screams again. Now she goes up to play in her crib where we are out of sight

mine are only a month and they dont notice eachother but one of them can sense when the other is near him. i swear he doesnt fall asleep until his brother is next to him. we feed twin a first and put him down to sleep and then feed twin b right away. literally the second twin b is put down twin a shuts his eyes EVERY time regardless of how long the other one takes to drink his bottle. we thought it was a coincidence the first couple times but its every time, its so cute! and twin a is always cuddling with twin b when we put them side by side, he will even wiggle his way closer to him.

I think around 5 months? They are now 7 months. They talk, laugh, hug each other; it is the cutest thing. One of my boys alway initiates the conversation and it goes from there.

Re: When did your twins start noticing each other?

my girls are almost 5 months and they have been smiling at each other and squealing at each other in the pnp for about a month now..


when we put them face to face while holding them they smile and "talk".. now they touch each other and move around in the pnp tog

Re: When did your twins start noticing each other?

mine were about 5-6 months

Re: When did your twins start noticing each other?

Just recently @ 5 months. They have always touched each other but now they will smile and laugh at each other.
And they get pissed if one is not being held.

Re: When did your twins start noticing each other?

One of my twins had major surgery at 6mo. He was in the ICU for 4 days. The nurses let us sneak him into the hallway so he could see his twin. They both flipped out when they saw each other. Laughing, jumping, hugging (as much as infants can hug). My little baby who was in so much pain was smiling for the first time since his surgery. It was such an amazing thing to see. I will remember that moment for the rest of my life.

Until then, I never realized how important they were to each other and how much they noticed and loved each other.
