Product Description
When Baby Makes (Much) More Than Three
If you’re a new mom of multiples, it can be hard to find advice and enough people in your life who “get it” or give you the support you need. Luckily, there’s Twin Set: for moms of twins, by moms of twins. Twin Set provides a parent-to-parent support network—based on an exclusive national survey of more than 300 moms of multiples—and shares indispensable, mom-tested, solution-oriented advice . . . and a few laughs along the way. There’s also a Mommy Doc and Daddy Doc onboard, two pediatricians who contribute medical perspectives on various issues, in addition to special features from experts ranging from a financial planner to a nutritionist—many parents of twins themselves! Twin Set includes:
• Answers to your biggest twin pregnancy questions
• Advice on handling the emotional impact of premature delivery
• Lessons on feeding, bathing, and dressing your twins, taking them out, and
putting them to bed
• Tips from dads of twins, for dads of twins
• Solutions for managing twice the laundry, bottles, spills, and other messes
• Options for multiples child care, from birth through school age
• Insights into twin bonding, development, and safety
• Lists of essential twin resources, gear, and equipment
This encouraging and essential guide will help you savor—not just survive—life as a time-crunched mom of multiples.

goes beyond pregnancy and infancy - great book September 26, 2008
I borrowed this from the library so perhaps my expectations were lighter .. but I couldn't put it down. Practical, fun to read and covers many ages. My twins are 10 months old and this was a SUPER read. Next to The Girlfriends Guide to Toddlers ... a total favorite. It would go on my bookshelf next to Healthy Sleep Habits, Happy Child, Babywise and Dr. Sears.
Practical advice for parents of twins September 16, 2008
As a parent of 4 year old twin sons, I enjoyed reading this book and see where it would provide meaningful assistance to new parents of twins. I wish this book had been in my hands when my wife broke the news to me that we were expecting twins. It would have helped ease my fears and prepared me for the big change. Christina and Cathleen have done an outstanding job of of sharing their insights into raising twins as well as bringing together experts in the field to deliver practical advice to parents (and soon-to-be parents) of twins. I would highly recommend this book.
