For moms who have twins, is it really hard to take good care of the same age at the same time? Please share your experiences.

I had twins (girl and boy) when I turned 36. i had never had children, and didn't plan on these two..but God gave them to us none the less. My husband worked on power plants and was out of state for 8-10 weeks at a time so it was pretty much me taking care of the babies. it was tough at first..all the late night feedings and diapers (we went through 11747 - yes i counted)...but all in all it was a wonderful experience that I tried to capture on video every day. To this day (the twins are 9) I will still pull out those videos and reminese about how much fun they were. i had even forgotten things that they did that i took for granted and didn't write in baby books at the time. It will be a special time...just rest when they do and enjoy every minute. they grow up way too fast!

i have a twin sisters. they both grew healthy, they rarely got sick. the problem we had encountered was their feeding because they were bottle fed and our source of income on that time is farming and we are attending school at the same time. we are very thankful because we have our relatives nearby that helped us took care of them, we don't have to hire a nanny. they wore the same color, design, pattern of dresses & shoes. it's fascinating rearing them as they grow to be a lady.
