[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another mom of twins here. I am sahm but i also work 10 hours a week from home.  I often wonder why it's like having just one!  I can imagine the hardest part of going from 1 to 2 would be the having a break issue since the ratio of adults to kids changes.  But it's doable.  Mine are 2 and we stick to the schedule (key key key to our daily survival), we are respectful of each other (well we are working on that, I'm a part time referee during the day), and we work together to maintain our functional happy family.  There are days that are a little crazy but I think that rings true whether you have 1, 2, or 10 kids.  It's about adapting and OP, you'll adapt and transition to this new chapter of your life and it'll be great!  Lots of people can give their two cents (including me) but at the end of the day you'll create tradition/systems during the day that'll work for your family.  Good luck! :)[/quote]
I was the poster with the kids 15months apart. a good friend had twins and it was actually easier for her as she was able to keep both children on the same schedule and they were at the same developmental stage. She did not have to worry about a toddler bonking an infant in the head with a plastic toy. I am not negating your experience, just saying that the poster who has one and is pregnant with her second does not compare with twins, which is [u]definately [/u]much more difficult than a singleton, but does not equate to two at two different ages and stages.[/quote]
