What's cuter than a baby's gummy baby grin, all pink gums with a single tiny white tooth peeking through?

TWO smiles!

Teething twins are a mixed bag. Some twins go through the process together, while others take turns. It can be a time of discomfort and grumpiness, topped off with a double load of drool that soaks everything within a two foot radius. But it's also a sweet milestone, marking a transition from helpless newborns to developing babies, babies who are now able to chew on food (and each other!)

Here are some tips for coping with teething twins. Learn what to expect as your twins' teeth come in, how to handle problems, and how to care for their new smiles.

I have boy/girl twins and some days feel as though I am losing my mind. Is that normal? ...though my family tries to be helpful, I don't know anyone personally who has had twins and have come to the conclusion that it is a unique experience that only someone who has been there can understand. I am a stay at home mom so I am also looking forward to speaking (or rather typing) with an actual adult!"

The isolation of being a stay-at-home mom can be overwhelming. Women who are accustomed to interacting with other adults in the workplace, find themselves in the company of babies or toddlers every day, and yearning for social connections. Mothers of twins or multiples may feel even more secluded. Not only are they meeting the demands of more children, but their feelings and circumstances don't match the experiences of moms of singletons.

Thank goodness for the Internet! It gives mothers easy, round-the-clock access to fellow moms of multiples. Just like aprilelizabeth, they can reach out to other moms for advice, support and companionship, and instantly connect with women around the globe. Stop by the message forum and join in the conversation. Find fellowship and friendship with other parents; share your wisdom and experience with others who are seeking advice. It just may save your sanity!

Thanksgiving is right around the corner, one of my favorite times of the year. There is something very fortifying about taking time to gather with family and friends and count our blessings. It makes you appreciate how very blessed you are.
In preparation for Thanksgiving, take a moment to tell me why you are thankful to have twins or multiples. Granted, there are some moments of the day when you don't feel so thankful, for example when they are fighting, making a mess or crying incessantly. But in the big picture, most parents of multiples agree that they wouldn't trade it for the world.
