Yesterday my sister came down to visit and announced that she is pregnant! We were planning on waiting to tell anyone about us but whenever she told us I said ME TOO!!! Everyone is so excited and we are thrilled to go through this together. This will be her 4th and my 3rd! We think to be due around the same time! She was pretty shocked because her baby is only 7 months old but she and her husband are thrilled regardless :) My parents are already trying to figure out how they'll be there for both births, we live about 8 hours away from each other!

That is exciting! Last time my sister and I were also pregnant at the same time for the first time ever. She was due 10 weeks after me. It was weird because I had a preemie and then 10 weeks later, she had a preemie! Both babies did stints in the NICU and had similar issues. They are both doing well now and when they get older they will definitely be close! :)

That's awesome! It's so nice to have someone IRL to talk to about the ups and downs of pregnancy!
I was pregnant both times with my sister. Our sons are 5 months apart and our daughters are four months apart. They're both the best of friends! I hope your baby and your sister's have similar relationships.

So much fun! A friend had her baby last october and turns out her SIL had the baby the same day. They share the same ob gyn so he was going back and forth between them. The kids were born an hour apart but my friend swears that she should have been pushing way before and thinks the ob gyn left her wait a bit to take care of SIL, he-he.

Congrats! That is so much fun. DS2 was born the day before my nephew. SIL still hasnt quite gotten over the fact that she was due 3 weeks before me, and I still had DS first :giggle:
