Twin Sanity: a how-to guide for new and expectant mothers of twins
An Air Force wife and mother of identical twins, Susanna teaches sanity-saving strategies to help parents handle the logistics of caring for multiples—even without having family nearby or hiring extra help. Sanity-saving topics include • Preparing for two babies—what parents really need to buy and where they can find it (without breaking the bank!) • Maternity wear for an expectant (and expanding) mom of two • Bed rest, labor, delivery, and the possibility of preemies • Breastfeeding twins—yes, it can be done! • Sleep—how to get it sooner rather than later • The daily routine—the sanity-saving details that new parents crave about how they will successfully manage caring for two babies. With a master’s degree in education and experience as a second grade and fifth grade teacher, Susanna understood how to manage a classroom, but found few resources on how to manage caring for two infants. Twin Sanity provides soothing encouragement to new and expectant parents of twins, both through practical, research-based how-tos and “I’ve been there, thought that, you’re not going crazy” journal excerpts from when the author was an expectant mother of twins, herself.“Susanna’s book was my go-to survival guide my first year of twin mommyhood.” –Julie-Rose Tedrick”I wish I’d had this book when my twins were born! This is the best advice book for twins that I’ve seen. I highly recommend this book for any mom (or dad) expecting twins!” –Ellengray Schroeder
