    I just wanted to stop by and say hello! My husband and I are expecting our first and second. We just found out on Monday we are expecting twins! Needless to say we were both shocked at the doctors office and are beginning to recover from that shock. I am about 7 1/2 weeks along and our doctor is about 90% certain they are identical. We were browsing the website last night and already found a bunch of useful information. I'm looking forward to meeting other parents and sharing this incredible event!

    Welcome aboard! And get your husband in here too! We could a few more husbands/fathers on here… or at least I could, sometimes feels like I’m the only expectant father on here.

    Hello ! Congrats for your pregnancy ^^ I wish you many good moments with your twins and really hope everything will be ok for you ^^

    My brother and I are the first and only kids of my parents... what can I say ? My mother told me it was very hard to take care of both of us since we were two at the same time and my father wasn't always there to help (military) but she loves having twins and doesn't regret anything (well, she didn't choose anyway so). Maybe hard to raise twins but you'll have many wonderful moment to share with them !
