A practical parenting guide focused on the distinctive experiences of raising twins and other multiples, from pregnancy and the first demanding months through childhood and adolescence. Patricia Malmstrom and Janet Poland address bonding with more than one baby, breastfeeding, daily routines, sibling rivalry, emotional and physical development, financial planning, and the balance between the twins’ close relationship and their individual identities. The book combines practical guidance with discussion of the social and psychological questions that arise when several children of the same age grow up together.
