You've expanded (and traded high-fashion maternity wear for your husband's XXL T-shirts), answered <i>way</i> too many questions about your babies' conception, and endured your dynamic duo's in-utero boxing matches. Just think, the adventure has only begun!
In the 3rd edition of her bestselling, humor-packed guide to the first year with twins, Elizabeth Lyons and her "multiples" sorority offer the wisdom of their combined experience in the form of practical shortcuts, real-world strategies, and sage advice.
Topics include:
- Preparing the Lair: Mandatory Gear for Babies and Mom
- Twinproofing Your Marriage
- Breastfeeding Twins Strategies (and why it's okay if you don't)
- Handling Unsolicited Advice about Raising Twins: Stories from the Trenches
- Getting Twins on a Schedule - Preferably the Same One
Lyons balances the day-to-day challenges that come during the first year of twins—from double feedings to sleep deprivation to getting out while pretending to have everything under control—with a sanity-saving dose of camaraderie. By the end, you'll be smiling, relieved, and professing, "Thank heaven, I'm not alone!"
"The advice you need in the short, funny format your sleep-deprived mind can absorb."
