We have three year old twins (our 4th and 5th child) and Joe's first book was very helpful in preparing for them. Now, after reading nine chapters of this new book so far I can quickly say he is SPOT ON in nearly every joy, concern, question, issue, laugh, and memory we have experienced during the first years with our twins. Every dad who is expecting twins in his family should make this a must have in his library and then actually READ it. There might be some scenarios that won't apply to your life but folks I'm tellin' ya Joe does a great job opening your eyes. Raising twins will always be challenging but his examples and advice will be very helpful to the new (and/or seasoned) parents of twins. Personally enjoy the authors sense of humor and the charming and sometimes hilarious stories of his life with twins in a house with older siblings. What a great read!
So, I freaked out when I found out my wife and I were having twins. Being a guy who has to research everything, I found a whole lot on twins-- all from Mom's perspective. Then I found Joe Rawlinson's first book "Dad's Guide to Twins". Finally a book written by a dad about twins! It was a great, fast read filled with stuff the dads needed to know about the pregnancy and delivery.My twin girls are now 6 months old. What now? Luckily, Joe Rawlinson has a new book about raising twins from birth through the potty-training time! Again, it's a quick read, full of everything a dad (and mom) should think about and be aware of when dealing with multiples-- whether with other siblings or by themselves. Topics I found especially helpful were getting your twins to sleep, and the traveling with twins section. I really wish I had this earlier and not six months on!If you're a dad with multiples already here, pick up or press the button to order the 2nd book "Dad's Guide to Raising Twins". If you're a soon-to-be-dad of multiples, order his first book AND the second book at the same time-- you won't have time once they're here!
Being a new mother of twins (going on 7 months), I searched high and low for books about being a twin parent. What I realized, however, was that there were very few books that I felt I could pass along to my husband for him to also feel like he wasn't the only one going through all these experiences. I began to look for books that I thought may appeal to him but struggled to find anything. When I found this book, I thought finally! I pre-read the book for my husband, showing him several excerpts and sold him on it. There were several moments where I thought, "ahhh yes, this is so true!" This is hands down the most informative, relatable book for dads of multiples and I would highly encourage it for any new twin dad!
This has been a fun and practical book for finding advice and reading about the reality of having twins. I leave the book in the living area where the twins spend a lot time with parents and grand parents. It is not only informative with just the right amount of humor about a very busy time for parents.
Dads tend to get lost in the mix of parenting websites and books. The focus is always on Mom – infertility and trying to conceive, pregnancy, labor, and delivery, the first months and years. It is because mothers ARE pivotal in this journey, but so are fathers.Which is why I truly appreciated this book. It's a great insight into a father's role in the family and offers detailed and practical advice - from day one to the first few years with twins. There is advice on feeding, getting them to sleep, diapering and potty training, traveling with twins, and how to treat each twin as individuals. In each chapter, there is also advice from other parents of multiples which I thought was great to give a peek into the various aspects of raising twins.I also think the chapters are well divided so you don’t need to be a new dad to twins to appreciate this. Done with potty training? No worries, skip straight to the chapters on teaching your twins to swim, or how to plan for a college fund for two kids at one time.This will make a great gift for dads of twins.
I really enjoyed reading this book! So much of the author's advice touched on problems I am dealing with right now, parenting 2 8-month-old boys. It was nice to know some of the things I questioned my boys doing, including fussing while eating and having sleeping problems, were experienced by other twins. It's nice to know we are not alone and that the author cared enough to help us get through parenting by writing his book.
As a father of twin 9 month olds and a 3 year old I found this book to be EXTREMELY helpful. It discusses many issues and problems that you would not have imagined. I especially enjoyed the buying recommendations. The book is very well organized and an easy read. If you have twins this book is a must.
As a soon to be parent of two twin girls, I have really been hoping to find a good guide with advice on raising twins. To my chagrin, I was unable to find much. I came across this book when a friend mentioned seeing it. So I checked it out.I have to say, it contains very useful advice for parents of twins, triplets, or even singles! (or as the author says, "singletons") You can tell the author really has gone through the trials of raising twins, and has come out of it with knowledge that can help all twin parents. You can tell he really loves his kids too.The book is well organized and easy to read. I read the book in about a week, and I will definitely be going back for more advice once my girls get here. It is full of great tips sure to save time and money, and has been a great help in preparing for the girls arrival. The author addresses everything from sleeping and feeding, to making time for yourself and work, and even potty training (I would never have even thought about potty training as something that will be different with twins)! The real life stories the author adds throughout are very enjoyable too (there are even some pictures of the author's family)I would recommend this book to any parent, and especially parents of twins, triplets, quads, etc.Thanks to the author for taking the time to make a parenting book specifically for twin parents!
