pregnant with twins

I'm having a hard time finding someone who is pregnant with twins or have twins. This is my first set of twins I'm 8 wks and 3 days as of today. I'm nervous and quite frankly terrified.  Any advice on how to prepare for this life changing event?

I'm prego with fraternal twin boys. 27 weeks!  My last appointment 2 weeks ago I was measuring 35 weeks if I were having one. My suggestion is shop early!! When you are this far along you could be put on bed rest. And if you aren't you won't feel like going to the store anyway. Good luck!! Being prego with twins is not for the faint of heart. It's a hard pregnancy. Lol and I still have 10 weeks.

I'm pregnant with twin girls! Currently 18 weeks. Was extremely sick until 10 weeks. Now my only problem is sleeping and how exhausted I always am! I'm getting bigger and if course it's normal because I have twins! I already look 6 months prego. This is my husband and I's first, so we are pretty excited and ready for the journey! We are a young couple, so people are often negative about us having TWO babies on the way. But Gid knows what he is doing! Just have faith, ask God for strength and be happy!(: It's a double blessing!

Im pregnant with twin boys im 28weeks4days! My pregnancy has been crazy i have ben seeing a high risk ob along with my regular since the beginning due to boys having their own sack but sharing a placenta! So my life since i was 9weeks has consiste of nothing but dr appts but i enjoy seeing my babies every week now!(: i was majorly sick up to 15weeks! Im always exhausted and aching as if i was 34+ weeks! But when my stomach is moving and my boys are kicking none of that matters! Im beyond nervous about what life will be like once they r here especially since this is me and my husbands first children but im ready for the journey that God has planned ahead! We r actually today packing our hospital bag and getting the boys last min stuff set up then we have our baby shower on the 1st and will finish preparing! The hardestnpart of ny whole pregnancy is hearing the words that my babies will be here early and will be in the NICU for awhile due to them progressing very slwoly in weight! But i know all will be fine! Hang in there and just take it one day at a time and dont put any strain on urself or ur babies!
