What’s inside The Two: Twin Guide: Your calm companion to twin life
When I discovered I was expecting twins, I did what many twin parents do, I turned to Google searching for twin essentials, preparing for twins and twin routine tips. But most advice didn’t capture what I truly needed: simple, straightforward and practical guidance tailored for Aussie mums, juggling twins and a toddler.
That’s why I created The Two: Twin Guide. A no-fluff, clear resource for parents preparing for twins. Whether you’re in the newborn stage or navigating the fourth trimester, this guide helps you feel less overwhelmed and more anchored.
Here’s what’s inside:
