I have 20 month old twin girls, they are identical and absolutely facinating. I found it an absolute pleasure to care for them when they were tiny, but find it harder now as they dont sleep much in the day any more, they are into every thing and they have started to fight ect....ect...Its hard work but its well worth it. I dont have any one that helps out at all (apart from my husband) but no other family or friends who take them off my hands for a few hour and i have coped so im sure she will too.
My best piece of advice to her is to try and get them in the same routine so you get a break inbetween feeds other wise its constant feeding, i always made one wait if she was ready for a feed before the other woke.

Get help from friends and family, it is going to be a lot to take at times. Buy your baby needs in bulk,you will go through them quicker than you think. Get a feeding and sleeping schedule set and try to stick to it. The more organized you can be the more free time YOU will have and that makes all the difference. Most of all enjoy the time you have with them.
When you got your schedule and rhythm set you will be taking care of two like most people take take of one!
My boy/girl twins are now 4.

i am a mum of twin girls aged 5 they are lovely but can be hardwork esspecially when they are babies but become a handful when they grow up i also have 2 other girls aged 6 and 8 she'll obviously need 2 of everything although i kept them in the same cot top and tail had 2 but preferred them together i put them into separate cots as they got older but as they were next to each other the younger one used to always climb in with the older one lol i also got a pram which they could lay next to each other in i got it from a carboot but the lady got it from france i thought it was great i found it easier breast feeding them as when i was alone i could feed them both at the same time impossible to do with bottles and if you feed them together you'll have more time for yourself when they are sleeping that's if they have the same sleeping patterns which thankfully mine did i would be interested to know if they are identical or not and also the sex if she knows yet if you would like to know more you can also get in touch with me on teresahatch@hotmail.co.uk
congratulations and good luck
ps she'll need lots of help and support : )

My advice is Sleep as much as she can before they are born, make sure she has enough milk ,nappies and essentials at home save her going out for a little while, routine is really important in the first 6 months set time for feeding bathing and bed time, if she is alone invest in two beanbags (my dads idea for me) if she is feeding by bottles its easy to prop them up in there and feed together at the same time and wind the baby who finishes first nap while babies are sleeping and get on top of washing
relax .... she will be fine well i am 9 years later :)
Good Luck To her XX XX

Congratulations!!!! You & your family must be so excited! You are truly multiply blessed!
I am a proud twin mom. My basic philosophy is I birthed two individuals on the same day. I let each child have their own interests in reading, sports, etc & each child dresses to their own wants & needs within reason. I do not have any matching clothing outfits for them.
She should check into Twins Clubs & Multiple Birth Clubs for her area before having the babies so she can get the low down on good twin birth experiences & supportive health care providers. Google your town name & twin club. Then Google your town name & multiple birth club. Then google your town name & Mothers of Multiples. These clubs are a great source of support & information.
There are wonderful benefits to having twins & twins have a very strong bond. It is a blast parenting them. My husband & I read every twin book published through our local library. This helps because there are issues unique to parenting twins.
Your cousin should read books about Twins & fit the information she can use into her life. Reading How to Have a Healthy Twin Pregnancy well give her information on pregnancy & birthing options.

Get lots of help from friends and family to aid in distributing some of the workload until she gets a bit more used to it.......I don't have twins so good luck to your friend. She'll do great, just love and cherish them always!

when it comes to feeding try and make sure they sleep first then you can wake one up... in another room if pooss and feed then the other, alternativly if they both wake breastfeeding is the best option... one on each breast, but when yu are a mother these things just come natural;ly, she will be fine but will probably need some support to start, having twins isnt a chore its a blessing

Love them lots, treat them as individuals and ask everyone else to do the same. be consistent in the way you treat them and above all pray for God's love and protection on them daily.
