You know what it is scary becoming a mum for the first time at any age, and the thought of twins would send us all in to a manic state of panic. You sound like a sensible girl and hopefully your parents will help you. I think once the baby's are born you will soon get yourself into a routine and you will manage fine. Maybe you should ask your mid wife if there are any classes you can attend which has teenage parents in. Midwifes don't judge and they are helpful. Goodluck with the twins, and remember when the twins get older you will still be young enough to go out clubbing with them. You will do a fine job.

Hi, I've just read your profile and you are kidding yourself if you think you will be at school until you are 8 months - you could have them any time now if you are 6 months. Twin pregnancies rarely go to their due date and most are premature. You need to prepare yourself for this.....
The best advice I was given is to take help where it is offered and people do offer - especially with twins.
I think you are being really brave and applaud you, its lovely having twins and they are not as hard as you will imagine. The first six months was the hardest for me as you have 2 babies to feed, get up in the night with, make 2 lots of feeds up, 2 lots of washing etc etc but once you establish a routine you will be fine. I had a three and a half year old too who I still had to get to preschool despite all of this and I did manage (though I was knackered lol) In your favour, you won't know any different as you don't have older children.
The key thing is definitely 'routine'
Good Luck to you all xx

Sorry sweetheart, but it doesn't sound like you live in the real world. Get off the computer and start thinking long and hard about the rest of your life--no, about the lives of the kids you're carrying. It's commendable that you want to try and make it work, but a tad unrealistic unless you've got lots of support, both morally and financially. Remember, it's not just yourself you have to consider. It's those two kids you're carrying. And sorry, but you don't sound like the smartest, most responsible person on the planet, especially if the only people you can ask for help at this point are a bunch of strangers on the internet. Good luck to you, and more importatnly, to those kids you're carrying.

My daughter has got twins,we have been surprised by how much easier it was than she imagined.
Dont get me wrong it is hard work but once you get a routine going it gets easier.
She advises everyone having twins to accept any help thats offered,dont try and do it on your own,you will get lots of offers of help,she did.
As they get a bit older they tend to entertain each other so they dont get as bored as a single baby.
The only problem she has a t the moment is they are coming up to 2 so are entering whats called the "terrible 2s" and have started fighting,its great fun though having twins,you will love it.
Good luck x

You will be suprised at how easy it is to manage.. the golden rule for parents of multiples is
ROUTINE !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Get them into the same routine, sleep together, eat together etc. that way when it's nap time both are asleep (but doesn't work 100% of time) and you can sleep.
DONT BE AFRAID TO ASK FOR HELP !!!!!
Put your pride aside and ask friends & family for help. Get them to take one for a few hours so you are just looking after the other. You will be amazed at how much more rested you will feel...
SLEEP WHEN THEY SLEEP
For the first few months have a nap when they go down. You need to be at your best for them so having a nap is good.
JOIN MULTIPLEMOMS GROUPS
They have wonderful advice on dealing with twin issues.
Make sure you have proper medical attention as twins are high risk pregnancy. Be prepared for the possibility of having them premi (my girls were born at 32wks 3lb 8 & 4lb 2).
As you haven't had a singleton twins will be all that you know so you won't realise how much extra you do, do. Good luck and feel free to drop me a line at anytime.

I had a baby at 15 (only one). I still lived at home with my parents until I was 19. They helped me out a lot. I took a year off school and luckily enough my dad had took voluntary redundancy and couldn't find an immediate job. He looked after my little girl whilst I went back to do my last year in school. She is now 15. You also have your B.F to help you out. Everyone rally's round when they see a baby, they just can't help themselves. Good Luck. and for those that are criticising her. Accidents do happen.

You have taken the first step and asked for help. You know it is going to be hard work, and even more so because of your age. You will need the support of your bf, family and friends because you will have double the work.
Join a pre natal class such as yoga and this will mean that you will meet people who are going to have babies at the same time as you which will mean that you will always have people to talk to about what is happening with your babies.
Good luck xx

ADD.
Reason why asked was if was within the time rage of morning after pills or coils could have told you to get that, or in the forst 60 days an abortion pill.
But how could you know realise till 6 months?
Bit late to offer much help
This is why you should be say 27 years old then no scared stuff.
Now too late to stop it so really time to prepare for motherhood.
Only really worried as you so young and that often goes so wrong...
Can only hope you have very supportive middle class parents.
Wish could be more helpful...
Your job as a mum from the word go really should be preparation for life...
At least you should be young and lively when they are teenagers.
Ie teach to swim, fight, about being streetwise about sex so you wont be a 31 year old grannie, and languages from as young an age as possible in holland the s Ed starts about 5,
Ive seen babies on skiis.
Dont over protect them... teach how to protect themselves.
will return but please... why did you wait 6 months for this why not one or two days?

You are in for a drastic change in your lifestyle if you're willing to keep & raise the babies. I hope you're under dr. care. I'm sure your parents will help you, but sorry to tell you, in this case, the dad usually doesn't stick around, I hope your b/f does. You're going to have to give up your lifestyle, you now belong to 2 babies. You need to surf online and get some books on parenting, parenting & newborn classes will help you tremendously. Healthy Start Program is a good thing, sign up for that, that's a state program. Sign up for breastfeeding classes if you're going to do that. It's going to be tough when your friends will want to go & hang out & have fun, but you can't, it's also hard to find a good b/f if you guys spit up, but you have no choice, you have to manage. Good luck to you.
