Who are the different care providers and what are their roles? What are the typical visiting hours for the family? And what do all those crazy beeps mean coming from the equipment in the room?

    Postnatal Care for Twin Moms: The Tupler Technique

SmileyKylee09 ,

A great listen if pregnant with twins!

My episode request is for one about at-home dopplers. I’ve always wanted to try one, but I’d love to hear all about them first, especially for twins. Also, how do I do kick counts with twins? Thanks so much for all I’ve learned so far! :)

sarahaline ,

Great!

I found out I was carrying mono di twins and haven’t been able to get enough of this podcast since. It gives me comfort hearing all of the anecdotes and makes me feel like I am doing my part in research and preparation. Thank you!
