Book excerpt: The likelihood of giving birth to twins has shot up from one-in-90 to one-in-40 in recent years, thanks to the escalating use of fertility treatments and the advancing age of first-time mothers.

Twins! gives parents comprehensive information on the physical, medical, emotional, and psychological issues involved in having twins. The first part of the book covers the pregnancy, birth, and postpartum experience, and discusses a broad range of twin-specific information such as the epidemiology of twinning, fetal and embryonic development, nutritional needs, and exercise. The second section covers the first year of life, discussing such topics as telling the twins apart, size and energy differences, and how to cope with the extra work.

Download or read book The Holistic Guide to Twin Pregnancy written by Breann Blehm and published by . This book was released on 2019-04-30 with total page 146 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When I first started doing research on what to expect with twin pregnancy, everyone and everything said the same scary words over and over. High risk. Preterm labor. Automatic C-Section. Premature babies. Long NICU stays. Being holistically minded, I refused to accept these things as an expected part of my pregnancy. There had to be another way. There had to be a natural approach to twin pregnancy that did not end with me being cut open and my preterm babies whisked away to an incubator for an untold length of time. The Holistic Guide to Twin Pregnancy is an encouraging and positive look at twin pregnancy with an emphasis on a holistic approach to prenatal care. This book explores the science behind twin conception, nutritional information from several leading experts in the field of multiple pregnancies, and resources for birthing options for the expectant twin mother. Other chapters include support to promote wellness both physically and emotionally, as well as information from scientific backed journals regarding twin birth safety, and studies that support full-term gestation of multiples and natural delivery. It is a culmination of all the information I myself needed and sought out after finding out I was pregnant with twins. The twin birth rate is at an all-time high, as is the desire for a return to holistic and natural ways of approaching pregnancy and birth. This book is specifically written for women and their partners who are pregnant with twins and have a desire to take a more natural approach to their pregnancies. It is not often that a twin pregnancy, often inherently deemed high risk, intersects seamlessly with a holistic lifestyle; however, with the right tools and information, I believe it can be done.
