Struggling?

I know I for one had a hard time seeing the light at the end of the tunnel some days (okay months!). I had a very difficult first year with bfing/pumping, working, PPD, marrige/money issues ALONG with the regular infant twin problems. There were many days I questioned being fit to be a twin mom, I found it to be sooooo hard some days. I just couldn't believe it when people would tell me twins are fun. I would think, well yeah, occasionally <_< lol.
But here I am a survivor, who REALLY loves having twins :a_smil09: I look forward to each day, I can't wait to see what they will do/say next. They really do turn into little people, it is amazing.

So this is a reminder that they will STTN, they will eat solid food, they will feed themselves an entire meal while you enjoy yourself at a restaurant, you can take them to playgroup and chat for 1-2 hours with friends while they play by themselves....and just wait until they say "I wuv you mommy" :wub:

It gets easier, it gets fun, it all gets better and better!!!!!!!!!

 

Kristi, what a great message! Thanks for posting that! And of course, you are totally right too!

 

Thanks for the reminder, Kristi . You're a great encourager! After six months, I've started to see things get better myself. My babies play together a lot and are content for longer periods of time. It's so nice!!!

 

Thanks Kristi!

 

Thanks for the encouraging message, some times you really need it when you are still in the trenches!!!! :angel: You almost made me cry reading your message!!!

 

I have to say that I needed your encouraging message after quite possibly one of the hardest days for me yet!!!! THANKS!

 

This brings tears to my eyes! I am just sitting here after a difficult day myself and this just makes me realize that my babies are the BEST thing in the world to me!

Thanks again!

 

really thank you for posting this. we've been having a really rough last two/three weeks. i really needed to read this tonight. thank you.

 

Wow!
Thanks for your post I have had a really hard past couple of days and needed a pick me up!
It's good to hear there is light at the end of my tunnel!

Thanks Again!

 

It's so nice to know that others have been where we are and that you made it through and that things honestly do get better!

 

Thank you for the pep talk Kristi! That first year is so difficult, but then when its over you look back and wonder where it went. I have to say that even though toddler-hood has its own challenges I wouldn't trade being a twin momma for all the sleep-filled nights in the world. (and mine didn't STTN until 8 months so I really value my sleep)

 

So true!

 

Always good to see that others have made it through

Thanks for the message!

(I couldn't help but read the message and then immediately look at your ticker to see the age of your children. When I saw 2 years, I thought..."TWO YEARS....Thats how long it is going to take For what its worth things are 10 times better now then how they were before!! I cannot wait for the I love you mommy. Shoot. I'll just take ma-ma for now

 

Can i have a cookie now?
