While I respect your opinion it's still not quite the same. You only have two hands and you have both newborn screaming and you have to leave one baby screaming because you have to change a diaper or dress the other.

I do not know of any mother who can bear to let a baby especially a newborn cry without feeling like dirt. BFing and everything else was a piece of cake compared to the heartwrenching screams of a baby waiting their turn.

My mom had kids that were 15 months apart and said it was like having twins until I had mine. Even though I was a baby myself when my brother was born she could at least distract me a little while working with my brother.

There are always two sides (sometimes a lot more) to a story just thought I let you know part of the reason that statement sticks in the craw of twin moms
