I have loved the reactions from my friends when I tell them we are having twins.
It normally unfolds like this:
Me: "I'm pregnant,"It normally unfolds like this:
Friend: Oh that's so exciting, I'm so happy for you,
Me: I'm not done yet...we are having twins.
Friend: Face drops down to avert my eyes/laughter/hysterical NOOOOO's
But, my all time favorite reaction is from my friend Danielle. I emailed her the news and this was her response, "Wow! Did you ask them to go back and look for a nanny in there too? Because you are going to need it." I still laugh every time I think of this reaction.
I'm going to need my friends more than ever after these babies are born. To be patient with me when it takes months to respond to a call/text/email. To answer my call at 2 in the morning when I don't think I can be awake for one more minute (okay, I will email you not call) and to just send out the "those babies sleep great vibes" all the time. Thank you for already understanding, dear friends.

You've got my support!
You have my support, and my help as much as I can...but what I can give you right now is confirmation that you are a most amazing woman and I believe you will handle it remarkably with skill and great insight. These boys are in for a treat when they meet their sister!Love you bunches and am so very proud of you and excited too!Mom
You're gonna do great! Remember what my mom says -- the twins are easier than the singleton! You'll be a multitasking freakshow and I'll look forward to hearing all about it when things calm down in a few years. :)
Whatever I can do from PA EB!
