I would be excited! I know it's a lot of work but I do think it would be fun to have two the same age.

I would be thrilled.
And then I would freak the heck out.
But mostly, I'd be thrilled. I'd have to quit work to be a SAHM, which means we'd be poor but I'd be happy to be at home with my babies

I remember at my first ultrasound telling my OB that I'm terrified of having twins, because having one baby seemed scary enough. Surprise, surprise - my OB is a twin. It was so awkward...

I secretly want twins I'm not sure my body could handle more than two, but triplets would be pretty cool too! Yup I'm crazy.

I would be sooo excited to have twins, especially after having one... I feel like DS is so lonely playing by himself all day, all week... I have friends who had twins just a month or two after I had Cobi and sometimes I'm a little jealous.
more than twins?? bahaha God would have to give me a lot of grace and patience!

Hah, that was my #1 fear going into my first ultrasound this week, that there would be 2! I have twin sisters and a grandma that's a twin, and I knew it was a possibility, but thank goodness, only 1 baby in there! I honestly can say I would not have been excited, and would have been absolutely terrified/stressed due the to monetary constraints two present!

Honestly, kind of horrified--no offense to any multiple mamas out there! The thought of having more than one in diapers and going through the newborn stage x 2 terrifies me. I much prefer one at a time. But I'm sure I would eventually calm down and be happy about it.

I secretly wanted twins on the first go so we could definitely have 2! But I probably would have freaked out, and we would absolutely not be able to afford 2 kids the same age in daycare at ALL. More than 2 I probably would have passed out, but odds were slim because we didn't do IVF.

I would be excited and then completely freaked out. It would be nice since I'm getting older and we are still working on conceiving our take home baby after our loss.

I would cry. (Sorry to all mommies multiples.) I would get over it, but I would definitely cry and freak out first. I found one baby so overwhelming, I don't know how on earth I would handle two at once!

We hoped I was pregnant with twins this time around.
SO happy I just have one in the womb!

I am a mom of multiples. I freaked out and cried for 20 minutes in the OB office. I just could not believe my son was only two months old and I was 2 months pregnant with twins. I was so embarrassed.

I would cry. If I had no kids and then had twins I could deal. But 2 to four would be shocking .

I've ALWAYS wanted twins... I still kind of do, but I don't know if I could handle that with as needy as DD is.

I had either an extremely large sch or twin m/c. I still think what it would be like every day if I had twins. Maybe the next go around. (Dhs mom is a twin)

I would be so happy because I wouldn't have to go through treatments again.

Well, as someone who always wanted twins "someday" but not for our first child, I can tell you that I burst into tears and really had a hard time adjusting. Even though I'd always thought it would be fun, the reality hits you and it's extremely overwhelming. That said, I'm so in love with my babies and can't wait for them to get here!

I would be rapt to have twins, especially if they were boy/girl twins - how efficient! Done and dusted in one go LOL.
More than twins? I'd struggle but be okay with having triplets; more than that I think I would probably have a stroke!

first time pregnancy, excited.
Second time pregnancy i would cry. haha.

I would love twins (I am a twin). But anything higher and I am not sure how we could do it. How do you breastfeed triplets? I suspect that is all you do all day. If we had higher order multiples I would have to quit my job.

I'd cry and be terrified at first, probably for a long time. Then I'd be really excited on top of the terror.

I was shocked and terrified when my OB said she sees two heartbeats! I cried with the enormity of the news and throughout the pregnancy I had a mix of excitement and fear.

I would be pretty upset. Eventually I would embrace it I am sure, but all the extra complications for Mom and Babies would be a lot of stress for me.

As a first time mom, I would have been thrilled! Now that I have a child, I would be scared first but still would be so excited.

i was kinda sorta hoping it was going to be twins this time (first time), so we could be boom done. and twins would be so cute. but i was SO relieved at our first u/s to find out it was just one. two would have been more of a lifechanger.

OVERJOYED! I secretly hope that we might have twins with a future pregnancy. I just think its so special

I've never really wanted twins. I definitely don't now that DD2 will be here any day!
blogger / pear / 1964 posts
It would be a nightmare. I am overwhelemed by one (though it is getting way easier every day) - I can't imagine trying to keep two babies happy simultaneously. So impressed by you mamas that can pull it off!!!

I always joked that I just wanted triplets and be done with one pregnancy. My husband said to be careful for what I wished for! However, we now just have the one little one!

I'd cry and be terrified, especially after having 1 already. I hardly held it together for one newborn.

I'm secretly hoping for twins. We have zero history of twins in our family, but I may or may not have researched what makes some people (naturally) conceive twins more than others. Annnd African-American woman (check) have a higher chance of consuming twins, diets rich in yams, folic acid, and dairy, and the older you are increases your odds. Probably just internet mumbo jumbo, butttt it doesn't mean I haven't increased my yams intake!

I would love to have twins! It would be hard, but I also think it would be fun. Though, I think the stress of the pregnancy would be hard with one LO already here. I know many, many twin pregnancies go off without a hitch, but a friend of mine recently was on hospital bedrest for 3 months with her twins. The babies are totally healthy, but that would be so hard with one LO already at home!
