"Real-world advice with a healthy dose of humor from a mom of twins who's been there!"
- Nancy Bowers, RN, author of The Multiple Pregnancy Sourcebook

You've expanded (to the point where you've traded high-fashion maternity wear for your husband's XXL T-shirts), answered way to many questions about your babies' conception, and felt your belly bounce like jelly as your dynamic duo engaged in a boxing match. And the adventure has only begun!

In her first humor-packed guide to raising twins, Elizabeth Lyons and her "multiples" sorority offer the wisdom of their combined experience in the form of practical shortcuts, real-world strategies, and sage advice.

Topics include:
- Preparing the Lair: Mandatory Gear for Babies AND Mom
- Twinproofing Your Marriage
- Breastfeeding Strategies (and Why It's Okay if You Don't)
- Unsolicited Advice: Stories from the Trenches
- Getting Twins on a Schedule - Preferably the Same One

Lyons balances the day-to-day challenges of raising twins -- from double feedings to sleep deprivation to getting out while pretending everything's under control -- with a sanity-saving dose of camaraderie. By the end, you'll be smiling and shouting, "Thank heaven, I'm not alone!"

"The advice you need in the short, funny format your sleep-deprived mind can absorb."
- Lisa Earle McLeod, author of Forget Perfect

"Elizabeth Lyons' humorous yet realistic perspective provides new parents of twins with a great starting point from which to embark on that all-important first year."

"My twins are now teenagers and as a woman who felt like she was the only one coping with double mommying, I would have sold my soul for practical, supportive advice like this."
- Kristi Luccariello, President of Performance in Practice

"Elizabeth Lyons captures the universal discourse of sisterhood while guiding new mothers of twins through the first year."
