Twins and Multiples
The first months with a newborn are never easy, but parents with twins and multiples face some additional logistical hurdles. Breastfeeding twins is entirely possible — and some say easier than bottle-feeding two little guys at once — but it is more of a production than feeding a singleton. Everything, from getting your babies to sleep and diapering, to buying new clothes takes twice the effort with twins, compared to just one baby. On the bright side twins provide double opportunity for love and they have each other for added company and comfort. Last but not least any parent of twins will tell you that they do eventually grow out of infancy. Tips from seasoned parents of twins include prioritizing, not being shy about asking for extra help, and letting go of any ambitions you might have to vacuum or cook much in the first three months.
