Age: 22
Number of pregnancies: 2, 3 children
Age: 2 yrs old, and 2 week old twins (2 weeks postpartum)
I had my first child, my son at age 20, he was 7lbs 11oz born vaginally and perfect in every way! i got thru the entire pregnancy no stretchmarks or anything lost all the baby weight and then some by the time he was 10 mos old, and was in better shape than i had been in high school! 5 mos after his 1st birthday i found out i was pregnant, at 9 wks 4days i found out i was expecting twins!! I freaked!! My bf has 2 sets of fraternal twins in his family and i have 2 sets of twins in my family so i guess it was inevitable!! i was very scared at first and later elated! our twin girls were born 4 days before my son’s 2nd birthday on May 19th 2009, at 36wks 6days, both were in the Nicu due to breathing problems 5 days after birth we got to bring the smaller of the twin girls home she weighed 4lbs 14oz at birth and 10 days later we finally got to bring our other baby girl home she weighed 5lbs 8oz!! I should say i’m very luck i gained a little over 45lbs during my pregnancy and have minimal stretchmarks, i’ve already lost 24lbs after just 14days and hoping to lose the rest fairly quickly…I’m totally in love with all of my children and they are a complete blessing to me, i must say i was completely mortified at how my stomach would look postpartum and i guess i should say i’m rather lucky and after seeing so many other posts i should think i have nothing to complain about. there are so many strong and wonderful women on here and this is truly a beautiful and inspiring website!!

you look unbelievable! I am so jealous. :)
I can’t believe how small your tummy is only 2 weeks after twins! You got some good genes there! Do you work out? Have fun with your son and the new twins! :)
Wowzzzzers! Lookin awesome already!! But I’m going to stop and think about how it must be like with a 2yr old and twins…*thinking*…Okay, I’m back, and you’re super woman!
Dam you hot
That ain’t no twin belly!!! : ) How did you manage to keep it looking that way afterwards. Did you use any creams on it?? I managed it by my waters breaking early, so my bump got smaller, not bigger!!
( forgot ), my little girl was 4lb 14 oz at birth too! I think they are sooo lovely when nothing fits them, and everyone thinks you are pushing a doll round!!!! lol
Thanks everyone i have sinced dropped 10 more lbs since the postpartum picture and my twins are now 5 weeks old!! I will definitely post an update considering my stomach has gone down alot!! i have stretch marks all in the front and somedays they really show and others not so much!! thank you again to everyone who commented ya’ll are too sweet and i absolutely love this website!!!
You look AMAZING!!!
Hey ! did you breastfeed with any of your kids ? how did you manage to lose all the weight ?
i did do alot of breastfeeding i’m currently breastfeeding my twins and breastfed my son for 6 mos straight. Right now i’m losing the weight from breast feeding and chasing around my 2 yr old. haha
Hi!
You look fabulous! I had my boys about 18 monhths ago (posted under Fraternal Twins) and I got tiny stretch marks, too! :( I microdermabrasion them 2x’s a week and use a stretch mark cream that has worked wonders. I can’t remember the name of it, but if you’re interested I’ll look it up! :)
You look amazing! But I just wanted to add that having twins on your bf’s side doesn’t impact your chances of having twins. Fraternal twins happen when you ovulate 2 eggs in one cycle.
:)
oh yea i know that having twins on my boyfriend’s side has nothing to do with me having twins it was just kind of an ironic kind of thing that we both had so many twins in each of our families…and ‘fraternal twin mommy’ i would definitely love to know the name of that stretch mark cream, i have posted an update but it wont appear on the site for another 3 weeks, and on there is shows how my belly and my c-section incision looks after 5 weeks postpartum i am now 6 weeks pp and about to start working out to help lose the remaining 14lbs i have to get back to my prepregnancy weight and hopefully more…
Hi again! I use this: Dermactin- TS Stretch Mark Complex. I’m not into the creams (because I don’t think most of them work), but I swear this one made them less noticeable. :) I got it at Ross for 5.99, but it retails for about 24.99. Keep up the good work! :)
Wow, seriously, wow!! I can’t even hate you, you’re so sweet and adorable, congratulations on your angels!
haha thank you Maddie, you are too sweet!!
Hi! I just read your comment you left me, I posted 1 year pp with twins. You are too sweet! You look really wonderful! Can’t believe that you’re only 5 weeks pp in pics! Amazing! Hope you’re hanging in there with the double duty! It can be a bit overwhelming at first but every day gets easier! :)
you look great!
