Learn from a mom who knows what you're going through how best to navigate the difficult but rewarding phase of caring for newborn twins.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br>As the parent of fraternal twins and a former member of the "three under three" club, Dagmara Scalise knows firsthand just how daunting that all-important first year can be. Now, in Twin Sense, she offers real-world advice on dealing with the many issues that arise when caring for newborn twins. Concise and easy to follow, the book teaches harried parents everything they need to know to navigate this difficult but rewarding phase of life, including tips for: baby-proofing; stocking up on what they really need; preparing and involving previous children; breast-feeding two babies at once; making errands possible; getting through the night; bathing the babies; traveling with twins; keeping the peace; responding to probing questions about having twins; and much more. Although everyone experiences unexpected challenges with the arrival of a new baby, the parents of twins face their own unique sets of joys and frustrations. Filled with lively anecdotes and practical advice, this is a true insider's guide that will make raising twins--if not a breeze--a true pleasure.<p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><P> "There are a plethora of titles promising to reveal everything one needs to know about parenting, so kudos to journalist Scalise for actually delivering a truly valuable, accessible, and witty book that will be indispensable to parents of newborn twins...

AMACOM: American Management Assn. Oct. 2008. c.191p. index. ISBN 978-0-8144-1066-0. pap. $15. CHILD REARING There are a plethora of titles promising to reveal everything one needs to know about parenting, so kudos to journalist Scalise for actually delivering a truly valuable, accessible, and witty book that will be indispensable to parents of newborn twins. She takes a no-nonsense approach, presenting what looks like a manager's checklist, and instead of the usual organization by age, her text is arranged by task, such as "Stocking Up," "Getting Through the Night," "Making Errands Possible," and "Air Travel." This makes the book easy to reference but no less interesting to read from cover to cover. Scalise thoroughly outlines what twinspecting (this reviewer's term) parents should purchase and what can be borrowed or purchased singly, followed by good product recommendations. Her boot-camp sense of humor is fun and effective, and her advice is wise, practical insider stuff (e.g., prepare formula in the blender and warm it in a Crock-Pot, then feed the quiet baby first). Despite the completely unimaginative title, this is one of the more valuable twin books to be published recently. Highly recommended for all parenting collections.--Julianne J. Smith, Ypsilanti Dist.
