Congrats on your dynamic duo on the way! And in case no one told you today, you’re doing an amazing job housing your small but mighty twinnies (who will be here before you know it).
Expecting twins can be a whirlwind of excitement and anxiety (mixed in with a healthy dose of morning sickness and fatigue, of course). But with your little twinnies making their arrival soon, you’ll want to make sure that you’ve crossed all your t’s and dotted all your i’s when it comes to your baby registry.
Because bringing home twin newborns can certainly create some additional hurdles. But I promise, taking the time now to think through the logistics of what you’ll need to care for two newborns will save you lots of unnecessary stress in the future.
Thankfully, there’s a world-class twin expert, Natalie Diaz, who's already done the brunt of the work for you so you can feel confident in your twin baby registry (and beyond).
Who is Natalie Diaz anyway?
Natalie Diaz is the founder of Twiniversity, the largest globally recognized resource for twin parents.
After becoming a mom to twins in 2004, Nat was disheartened by the lack of information and community available for parents of multiple. So she decided to do something about it, and in 2009 Twiniversity was born.
Since then, it’s grown into a worldwide beacon of resources and support for parents of multiple. As a twin parenting expert for nearly two decades now, Nat has traveled all over to support expecting twin parents so they can begin their twin parenting journey with confidence.
Besides raising twins of her own, she’s also an International Board Certified Lactation Consultant, Child Passenger Safety Technician, and author of two award-winning twin parenting books: What to Do When You’re Having Two and Newborn Twins Sleep Guide.
On top of all that, Nat runs the Twiniversity Podcast and hosts several free live trainings for twin parents throughout the year including: Twin Ready Registry, Delivery Day Boot Camp, Boob Camp, and Twins Sleep School.
Basically, if you’re reading this, you have stumbled across a gold mine of twinformation.
How does Twiniversity help twin parents?
In addition to housing thousands of articles on twin parenting topics, Twiniversity provides online classes for expecting twin parents (as well as twin parents who are already in the trenches with their little ones).
So whether you’re a first-time twin parent or a first-time parent all around, you’ll find all the specialized twin parenting resources you need to feel as prepared as possible for the road ahead.
The best part? You can add all of these expertly curated twin resources to your baby registry so you can enjoy the gift of twin parent support without having to pay a penny yourself!
