6 months

Had the girls 6 month appointment today! And the winner is...Miss Nita! Weighing 13lbs 10oz and coming in at a height of 25.75 inches! Jess isn't far behind, 13lbs 3oz and 25.5 inches. You wouldn't know it by looking at 'em! For informational purposes Jake was 16lbs 1oz and 28.25 inches. The girls are 50th percentile for height and 10th for weight.

Jake has a cold, Greg has a cold, I have a touch of a cold...I'm going to fight it tooth and nail tho! The girls too.

Speaking of fighting, I'm going to take some drugs! Just wanted to share the info with everyone!

Freebies for Twins / Multiples

Family & Friends: this is just a list that I hope the general public is directed to while searching for help! Please leave me a comment if you are and let me know! Thanks!

Here is a list of current stuff I found while writing companies about having twins. When contacting via mail, I sent a hand written letter asking about multiple birth programs along with copies of their birth certificates. (They want proof.) There are also some companies that just have coupons for everybody! I found these lists online, but they were so out of date and ridiculous. So here you go, a fresh new up-to-date list!

Nestle Infant Nutrition
PO Box AW

- This is good start, but they are now all partnered together with Gerber, blah, blah, blah for the Healthy Baby title I think. They sent a nice package with coupons and freebies.

Enfamil - 800-422-2902 - I would just call and tell them your info. I sent them a letter originally and just rcv'd a coupon. Then I called (didn't know it was them, was listed at Bristol Myers) and she updated my info and then got the free formula. Worth it!

Orajel / Church & Dwight
800-952-5080
