Product Description
Product Description
This useful guide to multiple pregnancy, birth and beyond, comes from an expert on the subject - Emma Mahony is a twin herself as well as being the mother of twins. Black and white cartoons from the Times' front-page cartoonist make this a lighthearted guide for expectant mothers of twins. Twins are amazing - but multiple pregnancy and birth, not to mention coping with twins once they are born, carries a set of special fears, risks and issues. Many parents-to-be find themselves overwhelmed. This guide is informative yet informal. It contains advice from pregnancy and childcare experts as well as case studies. It provides an exploration of practical issues such as eating for three, managing breastfeeding, and the trend towards Caesareans for NHS twin births. It looks at the unnecessary label of "high risk" in pregnancy and gives testimonies from mums who have tried different approaches. It contains interviews with medical and midwife experts and a step-by-step guide to the different stages of pregnancy and birth, including how to involve the father and explain twins to other siblings. In addition it gives tips on managing once the twins have arrived and looking after toddler twins, twins at school and teenage twins.
