When you step into the great wide world with your beautiful babes in a side by side stroller it’s hard to avoid the sometimes painful, and quite frankly, nosy, questions from well meaning strangers.
Prepare yourself with this list of frequently asked questions:
Are they two boys? (even though the girl is in a pink dress and the boy is in shorts)
Will you have more?
ARE THEY TWINS?
Are they yours?
Are they identical?
Are they paternal? maternal?
Are they ‘natural?’
Are they cousins?
Do twins run in your family?
How can they be twins, he’s bigger?
How far apart were they?
How much did they weigh?
How can you tell them apart?
Did you have to have a C-section?
Double-trouble! Are you busy?
Did you know that you were having twins?
Better you than me! How do you do it?
Did you want twins? Were you surprised?
Remember, forewarned is forearmed. At least people care enough to ask!
