TWINS!!! any advice????

Post by gel »

We had our scan today. TWINS! Two little hearts beating away nice and strong. We are thrilled, but I have to admit I am also a bit freaked out. I will have a 2 year old and twins!!!

Does anyone have any advice - like good websites to look at or good books to read. I feel like I need to arm myself with information.

THanks!

Gabriella -

Congrats on your twins! I'm having them, too. I've bought lots of books. :)

Books:
1) Get the standard "What to Expect Book" - it's got some good and basic info
2) Get Barbara Luke's multiples book (I don't remember the name). It's just fabulous. She has very strong views on multiples nutrition that is good.
3) The twins book by Agnew is good
4) The twins, trips and more book by Fierro is good

I have a few others, but I can't remember much about them. There is one that my hubby has, and I think it's good. I'll get that name for you.

The website http://twinstuff.com is a good website. They have a well-used message board.
