Tips for Twin Parents

Talk to twin parents going through similar challenges..
I am a mother of 10 month old twin girls. My two baby queens are also my first experience with babies, so I am learning everything for the first time by double the challenge. It has been a rough ride, but it is talking to people around me that gets me through the difficult times, especially parents who have gone through the same experience.

On the other hand, talking to people with little or no experience will make you sometimes feel even more stressed. This is because they tend to accuse you of making too much of the situation. Phrases like, "why are you always tired?", "You're just lazy and not used to responsibility" or "Your not winning any awards for best mom in the world". The same type of people even feel obligated in giving you lectures.

Anyway, by nature, all mothers try their best to love their babies and take care of them to the best of their ability. So, trust your heart and do your best, but never hesitate to talk to positive parents that can help you and support you through the rough patches of motherhood.
