I could not get very much into this book. I get that it's supposed to cover some basic information told in an easy to read manner, but the formatting and the condescending language was so distracting that I just couldn't get through it.

This book was ok. Maybe if it was my first pregnancy or if I hadn't already read something like "What to Expect When Expecting" it would have been better. But it was too much general what pregnancy is like and not enough twin specific information. I much preferred the other twin book I read, although this one had some interesting points. It was more text-bookish and the other one was way more practical here's how to survive with twins.

Lots of really useful information, I think it will be a handy reference for the next few years. (except the chapter on famous multiples - I don't care about twins who play pro soccer, or major league baseball players that are the fathers of twins, but I do now know that Andy Garcia was born as a conjoined twin.)

It's light, informative and funny at the same time, although it preserves a sort of classic accent, but it has many tricks, tips and curiosities on an event to which we can never, really never, think nor expect to be ready enough.

[Becky H. · Rating 3 out of 5]

Lots of general information. Very basic stuff.

[Lynne · Rating 3 out of 5]

Lots of useful information. Not all of it was relevant and some of it I already knew, but useful nonetheless. II enjoy the format of these books..

[Carrie · Rating 3 out of 5]

Very basic book. I didn't feel like it provided a lot of useful information for multiples.
