Default So the OB says "Huh, this is interesting..."

hello! i'm new to this area of tpf.

we have a beautiful 2 yr old and found out i was pregnant again aug 1. went to my new doc and had an ultrasound a couple weeks later.

he says "this is interesting. have you been really nauseous?"

i said "no, not really."

he then told us the most shocking news of my life- 2 babies! TWINS! my husband is very excited but i'm still freaking out. anything and everything i can think about freaks me out. having one more was going to be hard but 2 at the same time and a 2 1/2 year old? yikes! i thought if i shared the news here you ladies would help me calm down and be less worried.

congrats! and i bet that was a bit of a shocker. i have 2 boys right now...6 and 3, and DH and i are trying for a 3rd...so i guess i would be totally shocked too if i were to have twins...that would totally just throw me for a loop. but you will be fine...you will adapt and it will all get worked out. get your family involved and have them help you out. and i know there are mommies of twins on here...and one is a mod...but i can't think of her ID right now...sorry.

but congrats to you and your hubby

congratulations, wow how exciting!

I have twins, 3 year old girls now, and they are the BEST THING EVER. I t is actually quite easy to start with, a bit of a production line: 2 nappies, 2 bottles, bathing 2 etc etc. Line them up and do them both. It is once they start to exert some personality that it gets a bit more demanding...

...but with your older child and your experience in parenting you will be a master in all those diversionary tactics when the time comes, and will know how to keep them all entertained at once.

Congratulations- there is no joy on earth like seeing one of your little twins take the other ones hand, or give the other a cuddle. You have given your babies their own little best friend to grow up with.

PM me if you have any twins questions, I will help if I can

Silly question but I have always wondered about this. How did you feed them when they were newborns? Did they both wake up at once and start crying for food or where they on different feeding schedules?
