Twin 3 1/2 year old boys here. So far it's a wild ride but would not have it any other way. Congrats.

I would guess that you're in for twice the fun and twice the diapers.

Cloth diaper liners if money is an issue, and time is not.
Congrats!

The twins will be just like the first one. You don't know what to do or how it will work out but it always does. You'll find the strength, wisdom and finances will be there when you need them.

My boy girl twins are 5yrs old and they are wonderful...... Mine are invetro so we kind of planned on it happening

As with having any young children they have their moments but all and all it's been a good ride so far

Can't see how you would get three in a sedan.....what about some kind of SUV that has three rows of seats?

2 adults + 3 car seats + modern car=high probablity of something like a van, 3-row crossover, SUV or a 4 dr, full-size pick-up. Get accustomed to less money and sleep!! Congrats!

A minivan is probably inevitable. Here's how I thought of it: we need a dishwasher, we need a fridge, we need a washing machine and dryer, we need a minivan. Think of it more like an appliance than a car - that's what a Porsche is. And get one with a DVD player!
