You’re expecting twins?? You’re expecting twins!! Congratulations, we are so happy you found us. The fact you’re here means that you, or someone you care about, are expecting twins, and we are so excited for you. And getting you excited for you – and ready for this adventure – is our main goal. Whether you’re a completely naïve mother-to-be, or have been trying, hoping, praying and dreaming of this moment, or thought you’d try for a 3rd and you’re getting 3 and 4, or experienced some nausea and thought could it be, or your wife/daughter/partner is expecting, you’re in the right place for practical, meaningful, honest insight on all things twins.
We’ve taken our own experiences and the insights of twin parents and experts to compile the most practical, helpful week-by-week twin pregnancy guides with advice, nutrition, and wellness for both the mama-to-be and babies. We include tips on normal and not-so-normal symptoms of twin pregnancies, questions to ask, symptoms to be on the lookout for, when to brush it off, and when to talk to your doctor. One thing is for certain when it comes to twin pregnancy: One size does not fit all, and our goal is to help you with the expected and the unexpected joys and stressors of twin pregnancy. And whether you’ve carried babies before or not, Tip for Twins is here to let you know when to double down (pun intended) on nutrition, extra calories, vitamins, hydration, compression leggings and other pregnancy gear, body pillows, rest, light exercise, antacids, and planning!
Pregnancy brain in full effect? It’s okay, we’ve been there! Planning for twins is key and will continue to be key throughout your twin parenthood journey. Rely on us to help you know how to plan for all the necessities that come along with a twin pregnancy. First, the necessary – like delivery day for twins, a possible birth plan, planning your hospital stay, bringing home twin infants, and how to set up your twins on a successful schedule upon arriving home. We have downloadable trackers to help you track their feeding, sleep and diapering schedules (because trust us, you’ll forget 
), and we also have trackers for you to record little milestones, achievements and receive encouragement. Planning and practicality go hand in hand while preparing for twins, so we’re also here to help you with practical tips like setting up helpers at home (utilize our household trackers so helpers know how they can best lend a hand!), meals to have prepared at home, setting up your house in a safe, practical, budget-friendly manner to welcome twins, and stocking your pantry and nursery with essential items in those first few hazy weeks of twin parenthood. And finally, we’ll help you plan all the fun stuff too – like twin baby showers, twin nursery ideas, twin registries (don’t worry, you don’t need two of everything), twin photography inspiration and more.
Are you excited yet? We are! Yes, there’s a lot to know, a lot to learn, and a lot to endure during twin pregnancy, but you’ll get there! Anything in life worth having is worth working for, and the reward is so great! You’ll hold your wrinkly, fresh babies and yes, your hands and heart will both be full now until forever. Take a deep breath. You were made for this, and Tips for Twins was created with you in mind. You’re expecting twins!! Let’s do this. Come grow with us.
