Books on Multiple Children

We've read lots of books on multiple children. Some are full of funny stories, some are full of helpful facts, and some are a combination of both.

There are three books that we've found to be the most helpful. The first is The Multiple Pregnancy Sourcebook. It's full of helpful facts and medical information that you should know while you are pregnant with multiples. It also provides some information for after the birth.

The second one is Raising Multiple Birth Children. This book provides lots of helpful tips to help you cope with multiples. Things like how to bottlefeed all of them at one time and what things are necessary for the nursery. There are funny stories mixed with the tips, so it's a lot of fun to read.

The third one is The Multiples Manual. This book is full of helpful tips. Each chapter covers a different topic and there are lots of tips for each topic.

All of these books have been written by parents of multiples. It's good to read what tricks worked with their children and which tricks did not.

The funniest thing we've read so far came from The Multiples Manual. "What's one of the good things about a multiple pregnancy? One pregnancy and it's usually shorter than average."

OOh, I will have to write those book titles down. I'm not having multiples but those will be great for the women I know who are!
