Best Book for Twin Moms! August 13, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

While on bed rest, I read many books in preparation for the birth of my twins, and Cheryl Lage's "Twinspiration" was by far the most helpful and most enjoyable book in the bunch. Lage writes in an informal tone, offering practical advice--with a bit of light-hearted humor--as she shares her personal experience as a mom of twins. br /br /The chapters on breastfeeding are particularly useful, as this is a real challenge with twins. She talks about the different holds, the importance of working with a lactation consultant, mastitis, and many other issues that any mom interested in breastfeeding should know. br /br /Aside from lots of good tips on the logistics of life with twins (how to get twins on a schedule, how to pack a diaper bag, how to maneuver a double stroller, etc), Lage emphasizes the amazing gift it is to be the mother of two precious babies at once and reminds readers to enjoy it, because it goes so quickly. br /br /I highly recommend that twin-moms-to-be read this book BEFORE the babies arrive, as it is a good foundation for that first year (and who has time to read after the twins come home?). An excellent book!

I did not like this book at all. I hated the authors style of wrting, her personal views found it very diffcult to read. Don't waste your time. Instead, try "Twins!" By: Connie Agnew, Alan Klein Jill Ganon - it was a GREAT book if you are having twins!

Reassuring, practical AND witty June 18, 2008
2 out of 2 found this review helpful

Twinspiration is a fantastic book for individuals looking for a personal and pragmatic approach to managing the birth and care of twins. Ms. Lage has written from the heart about her own experiences as a mother of twins and offers guidance resulting from those experiences. Her book is packed with relevant information about how to prepare for twins (from pregnancy to what you'll need before you bring them home), how to manage the needs of two babies simultaneously and how to manage your life post twin birth. She leaves no stone unturned. The majority of the book addresses the nitty-gritty reality of having twins at home. Some examples include: holding and feeding two babies at one time, coping when both infants need you at once, managing two baby carriers, grocery shopping and maneuvering a double stroller. Believe me, these are things that will matter, particularly if you've never had children before. She also thoroughly addresses concerns, considerations and other practical matters during pregnancy. br /When you read Twinspiration, expect a book that will prepare, encourage, reassure and make you laugh. I found it to be invaluable.
