So here we are...

By no means am I a parenting expert. I don't even pretend to think, or delude myself actually- into thinking that I am doing things right with my son. So what----might you ask...is this person going to do with twins?


Good question.


I'm due with twins in the fall. November 9th is my due date- but I won't make it that far. I also have a 13 month old who will be around 20 months when they are born. Needless to say- I am overwhelmed and scared out of my mind.


I have questions. Questions, questions that I know won't be answered to my own liking until I am in the midst of answering them myself. I learned this lesson with B. But things like: will I be able to breastfeed, can I still do my cloth diapers, will we ever sleep again, do I need two cribs, and on and on and on and on.


To be honest, when we were at the office getting the ultrasound, I wasn't the happiest gal in town when the tech asked/told us, 'Are you ready? It's twins'. I am 34 years old- no, I am not ready.
