Get twin C128 set-ups for them, of course.  :-)

Ok, don't panic, the very first thing to do here is simple, get me an "It's twin" cigar and send it to me. ;-)

lol I remember when I was thinking just that 7 years ago.  The first thing to do is to get the big wheel turning.  By big wheel I mean the "feed, change diaper, day dream about sleeping (cause that's gone for a while lol).  Best thing I can tell you is stock up on food and diapers. 

some kids react weird to regular formula if your kids have a hard time sleeping (night or day) well even after a week, might be time to consider soy based formula.  It did wonders on my son and my daughter both. 

Oh and get used to waking up for night feedings.  ;-)....

You do realise you're going to be buried in an avalanche of nappies don't you ?

Er...I hope it was intentional...that you are a dad.  I'm sure the twins weren't intentional.  Better switch to FAST mode...you're gonna need it!

Congrats!

Congratulations. Yeah, we could give advice but you really can't give general advice. You're pretty much on your own. Hopefully you have realtives close by who can help and who will not try to turn your spawn to satan or App][e.

Basicly rest when you can. You probably have figured that one out already. I guarantee Mom has. Love your wife and your children. Be happy, stay happy. Take turns getting out for a little while. Use friends and relatives, who already have kids, to watch yours and both of you get out for a while. Keep the diapers handy. Keep the handywipes near. Puke and baby crap cleans off. Never get mad at the kids or each other. The babys will survive a crying fit. Child proof your house as best you can. Don't drop them. Keep a grip on your temper. Wear a smile for your wife and for the kids, even if you don't feel like it. Get baby monitors and a hand vacuum. Feed them mother's milk, at least for a few months. And hey, if the mood suits, why not try it yourself? Though I never did.

Have fun. Good luck. It's a great ride.

I'm glad I had mine one at a time though.
