You Might Be A Twin Mom If...

I have a twin mommies forum I have enjoyed visiting since I found out I was having twins. It has been such a source of encouragement for me. Well...right now there is a thread called "You Might Be A Twin Mom If..." It has me laughing so I though I would share it, and document it for myself... (If you are a singleton mommy please don't be offended-I know you can relate to many of these too!)

You Might Be A Twin Mom If...

If you grab a cart at Target for babies not stuff.

If you living room looks like an obstacle course.

If you need a whole dresser drawer just for diapers.

If you roll your eyes when someone tells you how a mother of singletons had a "rough" pregnancy.

If you have more breastmilk in your freezer than food.

If you have a whole photo album just for ultrasound pictures.

If you had to shrink your belly photo to fit it in the frame.

If you hear crying when everyone is asleep.

If you can burp 2 babies at once and have spit up on both shoulders.

If you find yourself constantly saying..."you're next" "I haven't forgotten you" " I hear you."

If you go anywhere with just one you are constantly feeling like you forgot something.

If you can hold two babies and use the restroom at the same time.

If everyone you meet says,"you have your hands full."

If you have a picture of one baby licking the other baby (You can only have these pictures if you have twins lol)

If you get annoyed they sell onesies in packs of 3 or 5 and always have to buy 2 packs because even #'s are now your OCD!

If you can open doors, pick up paci's, and tickle babies with your toes.

If you ever realized one doesn't like pears so nobody's getting pears b/c that would involved preparing 2 containers of food.

If you buy 352 diapers at a time and someone comments that you are stocking up...you laugh and say you'll see them in a week!

When one baby wakes up and the other is sleeping you tiptoe ever so quietly in to get them, so you can have some one-on-one time.

If you worry about dressing your kids equally cute - you wouldn't want one to look cuter than the other.

If you look foward to diaper coupons coming in the mail, and are SO disappointed if you go a long streach without any

If you don't go to certain stores because you get irritated because you can not push your stroller through their store aisles.

If you always have to use the handicap bathroom because a double stroller won't fit otherwise.

If you use the term, "singleton."

If you can spot another twin mom a mile away and you share that knowing smile.

If when one is doing something really cute, you snap a picture and then just take a picture of the other one because you have to have equal pictures

If when they are napping, you are shoveling food in your mouth as fast as humanly possible because you are always hungry. Always.

If people feel sorry for you because you have one crying baby in a sling, and one thrown over you shoulder as you try to calm them both.

If you refer to all babies as multiples. I constantly find my self saying to parents of single babies "Oh when they do this..." or "Do your babies do that?"

If you have double smiles & giggles!

If you feel doublely blessed every single day to have two beautiful babies!!!
