When did your twins...

[demandypants]

When did your twins start to notice/look for one another? Mine are only 12 weeks now, but I was just curious when they would begin to enjoy each others company

They started noticing each other I want to say around 8 or 9 months. Maybe a little earlier.

As for enjoy each others company - I'm not sure if they even do now (at almost 17 months). They're pretty independent and will play around each other but not as much with each other.

Around 5 months they started staring at each other. DD has always had to touch DS if they're on the floor together. They're 6 months now and don't play or talk to each other yet but I can't wait till they do!

I can't remember exactly when, but it definitely took longer than I expected. They were several months old, I know that.

This. I mean they would notice each other from maybe 6 months on, but pretty sparingly. Now, they interact more some days than others. Some days they talk, make each other laugh, snuggle and seem to really interact. Other days they do their own thing unless they are fighting over a toy.

Mine are 5 months old now and they started noticing each other in the last few weeks. Basically just looking at one another when they make noises and sometimes smiling at each other.

This with us too. They act like the other is invisible, lol. I think it is just the norm for them as they have been with each other since birth.

I swear my girls perfected ignoring each other for the first year. Don't get me wrong they noticed each other earlier but they didn't care. They are 19 months and they've been playing together for several months now, it is so much fun to watch. Also when you ask one of them if she has a dirty diaper she says the other one does. Or if you give her food she doesn't want she says her sister wants it. I find it amusing.

They still have a lot of independent play time but the interaction is so great now at least compared to the ignoring stage.

Mine seemed to be pretty oblivious of each other till they were 10 months +. They would acknowledge each other slightly, but they really didn't care too much. Once they started walking on their own, they've been thick as thieves.

Just an update, my twins are 4.5 months now, and DD smiles big at her brother trying to catch his attention. It is adorable. She was also gnawing on his fist the other day. Hehehe
