    Pregnant with Twins - New to BellyBelly

    Hi Everyone
    I am new to BellyBelly and find the advice from you all very comforting. I thought I might join the thread also as I am 21 weeks pregnant with identical twin girls. We also have a 15month old son Mitchell, who will be about 19months when the girls arrive.

    As I had been through a pregnancy before, I attended my first OB appt at 7 weeks alone, assuring my husband that it would be a short and routine visit to confirm the dates of the pregnany etc. and he needn't have the time off work to come with me as it was only very early on anyways. I couldn't believe it when my Dr said - Oh Dear with a big smile on his face - Twins!

    Like most of you we were quite surprised but definetly very very excited at the prospect of havings and have been closely monitored so far for TTTS - all going well so far. I plan on breastfeeding and have bought a twin feeding pillow which straps around your waist and has a built in back support - it looks great - will let you all know how good it is when I get to use it. Cant wait. I would love any advice/tips on getting through the first few days/weeks/months?
