Not great November 24, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

When I found out we were having twins, I oredered three books that were highly reviewed on Amazon. They were okay, but this one was my least favorite; just written by a girl who had twins and was hospitalized near the end with several of her good "twin expecting" friends. I found her constant mention of it annoying, as I bought the book for advice and not to be scared.

Bits of Good Information November 10, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

This book had bits and pieces of good information. Did not appreciate the numerous "horror" stories of premature labor, jokes about husbands being inept, and it downplayed the importance of breastfeeding. However, I have read six books dedicated to twins multiples so far - this is one if easy to read, funny, and had many helpful hints on setting up for babies and schedules.
