    Feelings you’d have twins..?

    @twinmum My mom has said I'd have twins since I was a teen. I was 0% surprised when it was true.

    Almost 8 weeks into twins and right now my 5 year old is the most difficult

    @reformed1 I feel this. I always say the big kid (ours was only 27 months) was the hard part of having twins. Ours were born during Covid lockdowns so it was all of us together all the time. I think a lot of it comes down to time. That is a big age difference but they'll be more fun once they...

    Pregnant with twins and devastated

    @coolguy123 Twins are hard but so, so special. My heart bursts every time I watch them hold hands and walk into preschool, and when they tell each other I love you unprompted and run for a hug from their twin.

Like I think both of them equals one of her. I think some of that is that they learned early on that they had to wait for things and...

    Help me set expectations: How much of a relief, physically, is having the twins out?

    @billbydesign The being able to breathe right away is awesome. I also instantly lost 25 pounds, so that is less weight on joints. It made a huge difference for me. Mine were not quite that big but were over 6 pounds.

    Choosing NOT to do daycare

    @fab01 Many, many kids don't have any outside care until prek or even kinder. My oldest went into preK 4 as a kid who had been locked down because of COVID for 2 years and is doing perfectly fine socially. It won't make them any more smart to be in care, just make sure they have enriching...
