twin development

[pansy]

Hi Hopingsoon,

I am a mum of fraternal twin girls also.Usually with development you go by their corrected age so "really "they would be 6 months developmentally.My girls only got their first 2 teeth at 8 months and then it took 5 months for 2 more to come.So I would'nt worry too much.Also they will do things at different times to each other.One of my girls did almost everything about 4 weeks earlier than her sister.

If you have any concerns maybe see your GP who can refer you to a paediatrican or see you community health nurse.All babies develop at different ages.My niece has only just started crawling at 11 months and just got her first tooth.
