    Moms! How did you decide if you wanted a vaginal birth or a C-section?

    @komdiarect I agonized over it for weeks. Really there’s no way to be 100% confident about it in advance. I scheduled a C-section just in case but wanted to risk a vaginal delivery first. Luckily both were head down a few days before surgery so I asked to be induced instead, luckily they agreed...

    Birth at 38 weeks?

    @quaheem I made almost to 38! I was induced at 37+5, might’ve made it a few more days before going into labor. Birth was great! Quick and easy! (Except for baby B who got stuck but eventually he came out too)

    What’s the dumbest thing anyone ever said to you as a twin parent?

    @nathann I hate it when people argue that you can have super twins where they are otherwise identical except for the sex chromosome but they don’t seem to realize that completely negates the meaning of identical!! Plus it’s extremely rare

    Feelings you’d have twins..?

    @twinmum i told my husband it might be twins the second the test turned positive because it was so early. And then I was so incredibly sick from the start that I kept saying it was twins or a girl (I was right for both)

    I’m 8 weeks pregnant with twins and have a 10 week old baby

    @agape49 Oh jeez, that’s a lot. I can’t believe you did the deed only 2 weeks postpartum! That’s the scariest part! Well if triplet parents can make it, so can you!

    Advice for 3 under 2

    @petronela My oldest had just turned 2 when I had my twins. The biggest lifesaver was getting an au pair, it was much more affordable than daycare for 3 and allowed for much more flexibility in my schedule. If you have enough room, I’d recommend that. Otherwise, if you have family or close...

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

    @billbydesign The relief is pretty immediate HOWEVER there are other things that pop up or take time to heal from. Firstly, your core will be pretty beat up and will need time to regain its strength. Getting up after having the twins felt like my intestines were gonna fall out. Secondly, my hips...
