The shock!

ashes1010

We just found out this morning that we're having twins! We are still in complete shock! Thankfully, both look very good with strong heart beats. The doctor said that we're not out of the woods yet. We have another u/s in 2 weeks! 

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

lol I went through many emotions when we found out it was twins....shock, excitement, terrified, denial :-P it took me and my dh a few weeks to adjust to the idea that we were having TWO babies, AH!

get plenty of rest and you will do great! happy and healthy 8 or 9 months to you :-)

Congratulations and welcome!!  

Here's my advice:  

1. Get some good books on having twins -- I like Twins! Pregnancy, Birth, and the First Year of Life by: Agnew, Klein, and Ganon; Having Twins: A Parent's Guide to Multiple Pregnancy, Birth, and Early Childhood; and will soon be buying Mothering Multiples, as it has been highly recommended (especially if you are planning on breastfeeding).

2. Visit this board frequently -- there are lots of ladies who have great advice.

3. Ask questions

4. Listen to your body and get plenty of rest and nutrition! 

5. Relax and enjoy the crazy ride!  

Good Luck and keep us posted!

Congratulations!  MH and I have known about our twins for 5 weeks now and we still go through periods of shock, terror and disbelief.  But there are equal periods of excitement. 

This board is full of incredibly knowledgeable women.  They have been such a great resource for me.  Definitely do your reading, ask lots of questions, rest now while you can, and take care of yourself.
