Would someone please suggest good books on parenting twins?

My daughter is having twins soon and I want to get her one for a shower gift.Would someone please suggest good books on parenting twins?
I have 10 month old twins. Here are a few books I've tried:





1. Having Twins by Elizabeth Noble: This was useful as a quick reference especially during pregnancy. However, it wasn't much use after the first month or two.





2. Double Duty (I can't remember the author): This was an EXCELLENT guide for practical things like feeding two at once. It was very helpful in preparing us for the first few weeks.





3. The Art of Parenting Twins by Malmstrom and Holland: If you want something that talks a little more about stuff beyond the first six weeks this is helpful It goes all of the way to adulthood and talks about some of the issues that twins will face.





Like the previous person said, very little can really prepare you for the challenge (and joy!) of raising twins. You might consider giving her a subscription to ';Twins Magazine'; www.twinsmagazine.com instead. I found this to be helpful with issues that arise beyond those first six weeks. Also, for me, the best resource for parenting twins has been my local Mothers of Multiples Club and online forums such as www.twinstuff.com.





Hope this helps! Good luck to your daughter.Would someone please suggest good books on parenting twins?
I will be honest with you....there aren't any. I have twins that will be 8 on Sunday and no book can prepare you for what lies ahead. you just have to learn one day at a time. A good book, seriously, would be Chicken Soup for the Mother's Soul. Another really good book is What to expect the first year. It does not deal with twins specifically, but what to expect the first year of any child's life. Good luck!
Look in the bookstore and check the copyright date.No one wants an old book.





Dr. Spock is always in fashion and constantly updated.It's a good choice.





Congrats on your grandchild.
