“Twins. Whoa.”

 

… A common first thought for many who are finding out they are expecting multiples. Your family may regale you with “Oh! Twice the love and twice the joy!”

 

But perhaps you aren’t at that point because…

… well, you’re the person who is having these babies! Even the idea is overwhelming!

 

Experienced parents of multiples have shared things that have worked, and if you haven’t already, seek out those resources — the people who have been there, in the trenches, and are in a place that looks like where you want to be.

 

But let’s back up… do you even know where you want to be?

 

If this is your first experience being pregnant, you may be feeling flooded with the “normal” what ifs, AND NOW the twin what ifs.

 

Guess what most experienced parents are going to share — don’t be afraid to ask for help. And that is where doula support comes in.
