Twin Mommas--? for you

One of my dearest friends recently found out she was expecting twins after problems with infertility. ?I want to send her something, but was hoping you guys might have some "fun" suggestions for twins.?

Did you get anything that you especially loved? ?She is almost 12 weeks, so obviously I have no clue on genders. ?TIA! :)?

Re: Twin Mommas--? for you

  • Assuming you mean something to send to her now, I always send the latest copy of baby bargains, twins or not. I know it was super helpful to me b/c I just didn't know where to start with all the 'stuff' I was supposed to be registering for & buying. You could also order a couple books about being pg with twins or caring for twins- some popular ones on here are Dr Barbara Luke's book, When You're Expecting Twins Triplets or More (it's about multiple pregnancies) as well as Twin Set, Twin Sense, Juggling Twins & Ready or Not, Here They Come.  

    Maybe a gift cert to a maternity clothing place since she will be showing earlier that the avg person & will prob need at least some pants soon. If you live near her, maybe you could make a fun day of it & go shopping for mat clothes & take her to lunch! 


  • There are lots of twin books out there that she may enjoy reading.  Or you could give them 2 of something that serves a purpose but is still fun (and neutral tones)... like Swaddle Me wraps or something like that.

    A twin pregnancy also includes TONS of ultrasounds, so another idea could be a book to keep all of the photos in.  Ours ended up all over the house, in my purse, etc. ; )

  • Thank you guys for the suggestions. ?Your ideas are very helpful--love the idea of Baby Bargains and the other twins books. ?

    'a shopping I will go' ?

  • I will admit, before we got into the practical phase, we were overjoyed to receive our "Frick" and "Frack" onesies froma friend (justmultiples.com) :)  It also came with a magnet that says, "I Luv my Twins"  - so cute, and since it was our first clothign gift, it was really fun and memorable.
