Things that happen to "every" twin mom

-OR- don't believe everything you hear.

Like most first time mom's I read a lot about being pregnant when I got pregnant.  I read even more about twins and what to expect with a twin pregnancy.  Now that I have only days left of this pregnancy, I feel pretty comfortable saying that most of what I read ended up being a load of BS... for me.  I'm sure for other women these things happened, but it just goes to show how every woman, every experience, and every person is different.  My advice?  Read.  Read all you can, and ask all the questions you can, but be realistic and remember that no two pregnancies are the same.  The following is a list of things I read that were often presented as twin preggo facts that just weren't true for me.

Roses and Pink Unicorns

Let’s get real about pregnancy here for a minute.  I’m pretty sure I’m one of those annoying women that other women hate because I never experienced morning sickness, I’ve gained relatively little weight for twins, and I am truly awed by every little movement that these babies make.  I really do love it, but as I’ve entered the third trimester, there are some truths that ima spit real quick, because what is life, if you can’t laugh your way through the sorta shitty times?
