  We are 3 1/2 months in to our twin journey and also have a 5 year old.  He has been the most amazing helper and big brother.  You can probably find a lot just reading through old board posts on here in regards to everything.  

  
  

  My biggest advice is routine, we've strictly followed one up both up and it's helped us get sleep and not feel like we're always feeding a baby.  Take whatever help you can get after they come and don't be afraid to let some of the chores go while you adjust and focus on them and yourself.  

  
  

  Welcome and best of luck! This group helped me a ton when I was expecting my two!

  I had to laugh at this. I don't know if you know you wrote a 5 year old toddler :-) we have a 23 month old daughter and 6 month old triplet boys. Routine is key. Take a lot of deep breaths. You will get through the day. Two babies is really not all that difficult. it helps a lot that you have a child in school.
  you will have a fun time!

  
  

  
  

  
  

  No periods due to 17 years of ballet and distance running after college.  Zero response to 2 months of Clomid, little response to Letrozole.  IUI left with 9 cysts = too many viable eggs due to age.  On to IVF.  Low dose of all meds still produced 37 mature eggs 12.6.11.  Froze due to overstimulation.  

  FET #1.1 1.22.12 BFN.   FET #1.2 2.22.12=GRACE! (and a vanishing twin).  

  Grace Katherine born 10.25.12 @ 36w6w 6#14oz 19.5".
  FET #1.3 3.2013 BFN FET#1.4 4.2013 BFN. Never tried a fresh transfer.  Let's try, despite 10 still frozen.  
  ER 6.26.13 27 mature eggs, slight overstim. ET   7.1.13 ectopic, FET 2.1  9.10.14   TRIPLETS!!  

  Boys born 3.18.14 @ 29w5d.  Andrew Jack 3#6oz 16", Grant Robert 3#9oz 16", Charles Phillip 3#7oz 17".
