At the club, we agreed that expecting a multiple birth is both scary and exciting, you want information but often don't know many people who have had twins to ask them questions. So with the help of members of the Twins and Triplets Club in East Kilbride we have produced a booklet called "Twin Tales" to be given to mothers expecting a multiple birth.

We speak of our pregnancies, births, coping in the early days and offer some hints and advice to help make life easier. We have also requested for some fathers to make a few comments on how they have been affected by the arrival of their little darlings!

It is an honest account of our experiences, and does not intend to alarm anyone. Some literature in books can make you feel quite inadequate because not everyone finds it easy to coping with a multiple birth, and at times don't feel very lucky for the privilege!

For the purpose of our website we have dissected the booklet into two sections- "Twin Tales" and "Hints and Advice".
