Very Helpful and Informative Book!

Dr. Leiter offers great professional and personal insights into twin pregnancy. Her medical information is just enough and easy to comprehend for the curious layperson. Though you'll learn what can go wrong, she keeps the focus on the positive and offers encouraging examples from patients and her own experience. This book is great to read with Twinspiration, which focuses more on what happens after you bring them home from the hospital.

Great but lacking one thing

This book was great -- I read it time and again -- but it lacked more in-depth information about what to expect for each trimester. The information about your pregnancy during given periods of time was very, very brief.

Exactly what I needed!

This book was very beneficial to me. This was my first pregnancy and I bought several books but none of them focused on twins or even had a chapter dedicated to twins.
Most, if not all, of my questions were answered reading this book. I also took advantage of the resources provided.
