Twins
Ultrasound showed that you will become a parent of twins. You can feel happy – you will have double joy and double trouble.
Few simple tips will help you to cope better with suddenly increased happiness.
Do your best to teach kids to eat at the same time. If you are breastfeeding a child, first attach one to the chest, then the second. Normally, twins develop, and weigh the same, but there are exceptions. If you see that one child weighs less, then give him/her extra food.
The second important point is to make children sleep at the same time. If you see that children are restless without any reason, it’s worth a try to put them to sleep together. During 9 months of pregnancy they are much accustomed to the neighborhood of each other, and at first they can miss this. In the future, they will learn to sleep separate from each other.
Kids love when they are carried on the hands. Of course it will be more difficult to hold both kids at the same time. But you should not deprive kids of this endearment. Try to hold them in your arms while sitting on a chair, preferably on a rocking chair.
Baby bathing is one of the most important procedures. But you cannot do this alone, you will need a help from your husband, relatives or friends.
After 6 months children learn to sit and crawl, allowing you to relax a bit. Certainly they will find something to do. But here arises another trouble – it is very difficult to follow two children who are running in different directions.
Despite the fact that twins are very similar, be sure, that very soon you will start to differ them. Always remember that they are two different individuals. There is no need to buy them exactly the same thing and make the same hairstyle. You raise two different kids, who will certainly bring you a double portion of happiness.
