Are there any multiple moms out there?

Hi! I am new here and I just found this section but there haven't been any posts for awhile. Is there anyone out there with twins or more?

No, Rivka, my doctor did not till this day say why they were having such a big difference in weight except that Christopher stopped growing when he was 24week in utero !
Emily is now walking all over the place, climbing the stairs while Christopher is pulling up to stand ! He continues to have in-home visit from a physio, an early interventionist and a dietitician.
You twins are so adorable ! I wish mine would hurry up and grow some hair !

My twins are 32 months - will be 3 in Feb. They were 32 weekers, Megan was 4 lb, 3 oz, Maribeth 2 lbs 8oz at birth. I also have 3 older children who were 2,3 and 4 when my twins were born.

My b/g twins were born on June 22 of this year, so they're three months and some change. I'd love for this board to be more active too, though I only get on the computer once every couple of weeks or so right now! I have an almost-four-year old boy as well. My babies are healthy and happy and roly-poly on nothing but nursing and I'm so grateful for all that... I have to say, though, that it's pretty hard to keep up with the baby care and the kid care and the house care. It does get easier, right...?

um ya, sure right... Some days are easier whereas others are still very difficult. Maybe when they are 2 - oh wait those are bunch of tough months - maybe at 3 it's easier. The difficult things change and what was difficult becomes easy, but what was easy might be difficult. Right now, I'm having really difficult nights again. Last night was lilke the 4th night in a row that I've been up for the majority of the night.

I totally have high hopes in my head, like "Oh, it'll be so much easier when they're walking and can entertain themselves," stuff like that. I hadn't thought of two having an entirely different set of rules! And I have heard other twin moms give entirely different versions of when "easy" happened. I'd be curious what you all experienced--When did it get easier for you all?
