Wife just got the ultrasound results and yeah two babies coming in January. I'm excited but also terrified. How did you guys handle the newborn stage with multiples? Any advice would be appreciated because right now I'm just staring at the ultrasound pictures in shock.
That's awesome and yeah that terror is totally normal. I was freaked out when we found out we were having two. Honestly it's manageable if you have help and lower your expectations on keeping the house clean for a while.
January babies born to parents who are already thinking ahead? Those kids are lucky. Start looking into gear now because you'll want backups of everything.
The terror is real but you've got this. January babies means you'll have the holidays behind you at least. Stock your freezer now with meals. That'll be your lifeline.
Just had twins myself two years ago. First month is chaos, second month you start seeing personalities, third month you wonder how you ever lived without them. It gets better faster than you think.
Dude, twins. You're going to need to tag team everything. Sleep deprivation times two is real. But the payoff of watching them grow up together is incredible. You got this.
Twins are a game changer. Congrats man. January is coming fast so start prepping now if you can. The best advice I can give is build your support network NOW. You're going to need friends and family helping out.
Twins in January? That's intense but also amazing. Honestly the terror is normal. Just know that the chaos is temporary and you're already ahead because you're thinking about it now instead of panicking in week 2.

Congrats man that's huge. Double the diapers, double the laundry, but also double everything good. Get your sleep now while you can. And definitely line up help for those first few weeks.
