It's a Bird, It's a Plane...It's Identical Twins!

Image may contain: 1 person, sitting, eyeglasses, baby and closeup

These two look pretty similar don't they? All the doctors said they were fraternal since they were di/di twins. I was not convinced....we were living in the 1% world, remember!?

Enter zygosity testing. We doled out 100 smackaroos to test their DNA and they're 99.99999995% certainly IDENTICAL. Matt is holding onto that 0.00000005% chance he was right and they're fraternal. Fat chance :)

They have grown to big boys Zach weighs 6 pounds 10 ounces and Teddy is 7 pounds! My chubby cheek chunks <3

My milk disappeared and has not come back. This was so hard for me to deal with. I exclusively breastfed Noah for a year and so to not spiral into depression about it, I have taken a new outlook. I am pumping to stimulate, if I get milk that's an added bonus. We will cross the pumping/breastfeeding bridge after the boys come home. Because I did not get my earlier wish. 

They still need time. And time and love and kisses and everything they will ever need is what they will get.
