Hello All, I just found this group, and I'm sure I'll have a lot of questions before long. We've known for about 5 weeks that we're pregnant, but just found out last night that we're having twins! It's a little overwhelming. Can anybody tell me how long it'll be before we can find out if...

Today is Michael and Kevin's tenth birthday! Seems like most who post here have infants or toddlers, so let me tell you all that it does get easier - but not less expensive! I still am thankful that I have them both. I had TTTS. Michael weighed 6lbs 6oz and Kevin 4lbs 4oz. Michael is now 2...

Hello folks! My boys are turning 3 on October 31st....yes that's Halloween...and the inevitable b'day theme is Halloween. What are some of your experiences with entertaining 3-year olds on such a double event? I'm relatively clueless but have figured out the need for an...

Hello fellow parents, One of my twin boys, Aleem, has been having an ear ache for the past two days and today I took him to see our GP who diagnosed it as wax build-up related pain. Although I regularly clean his ears with a bit of olive oil and a tissue (very lightly on the outside portion) I had...

Dear members, I just wanted to gush a bit and say that since I became a member of this group three years ago, I have found it absolutely wonderful and very supportive. I know that I don't get a chance to post very often, but I read everyones posts regularly, and the information is more...

I have 18 mnth old twin girls. We are encountering two issues. First, one of our daughters seems to be jealous of ur other daughter. When we hug her she will come up and try to wedge her way in. We try to give them both the same amount of time and attention. The other is that they fight over...

My wife and I are looking for some food ideas for our 14-month old girls. they love veggie, burgers, chicken, peas , pancakes and a few other assorted things, but I was wondering if anyone had any really good ideas on some other things that might work?

I was taking the "morning" shift with the kids today (schools were closed because of weather, so my dw and I had to split the work schedule). So I was at the table, playing a game with my 6 yo boy, and the girls (9 yo) were playing in the living room. I heard one of them say to the other, "Let's do...

I need some advice so I don't spend more money on something I'm not going to use. I've done to much of that already :-) I've bought car seats that don't work well, and a stroller that doesn't work well. By far the hardest part of twins for me so far is the damn car and getting them around. ...

I'm full of questions. Currently when I go shopping and have to take the babies (I try not to do that) I put both carseats in a cart and drag another cart behind me if I have very many items I need. I took the stroller once but that only works if I need very few things and they were really...

Hi all, I'm having a heck of a time with getting the boys to nurse at the same time. We manage it a few times a day. I try to wake the other up but they won't feed decently if I do that, especially Ben. Then they end up eating again in an hour. Is it to early to worry about/expect this or am I...

How many people delivered without epidurals? I'll ask my doctor today but it occurred to me that they might request that I have an epidural in place? Ugh - don't want one. They give me the willies :-) If I need a c-section I'd think they could do one at the last minute or something couldn't...

Hello! I'm wondering if this group is still active? We found out we are having twin boys last week at our 20wk ultrasound. It was totally unexpected. I have two older boys that will be just turning 5 and 7 when the babies come. -- Nikki Hunter 4/99 Luke 4/01
