15 Things Never To Say To A Mother Of Multiples! (Funny)

6-7-2012

Us cutie patooties are 27 months and 5 days old. 

 

 

Now this woman even I would be inclined to wanna talk to. WOW!

That’s the last time she’ll be laying down for the next 18 years .

 

 

Things to never say!

 

1) “Got your hands full, huh?”

Yes, and I have a great big double stroller perfect for mowing down people who waste my time asking stupid questions. Isn’t this one obvious from the sweat on my brow and the juggling act you are witnessing? My heart is certainly overflowing though.

 

2) “Did you want twins?”

Well, I do now, but I’m not insane. I have had other children before.

 

3) “Are they natural?”

Don’t say this to any woman regarding anything if you know what I mean.

 

4) “Double trouble, hey?”

Very intelligent. You don’t hear that one everyday brainiac. Let’s hear some new material already.

 

5) “Better you than me.”

Damn straight!

 

6) “Twins, Perfect. Now you’re done.”

Glad you made that decision for me.

 

7) “My best friend’s sister’s cousin’s brother has twins.”

Believe me..we could not care less.

 

8 ) “I have two close in age so I understand what it’s like to have twins.”

Glad you think so, but um…no you don’t.

 

9) “Two for the price of one.”

Really? I could swear my bank statements, wallet, and worn out debit cards would say otherwise.

 

10) “Are they identical?”

Please reserve this for cases in which it is truly perplexing, and they look like carbon copies of one another and you just must know for reasons unknown. A twin mom hears this one too often. One less annoyance is always appreciated.

 

11) “Are there twins in your family?”

Duh, just look in the stroller. Of course there are!

 

12) “You look terrific for carrying twins.”

This comment can be taken in a negative way. So, I wouldn’t have looked terrific otherwise? I look good for being shamu and over-stretched to no end?

 

13) “How do you do it?”

I’m a super-human, didn’t you know? For the zillionth time..YOU JUST DO? What choice do we have?

 

14) “Twins huh? You get to get it over with all at once.”

1st off, I have other children. 2nd off, who said I want to ‘get anything over with?’ Quite the contrary. I can’t wait to pay off two college tuitions at once. ‘Get it over with’. As if having children is a bad thing we want to sleep through until they turn twenty. I actually wanted my kids.

 

15) “I’ve always wanted twins.”

What time can I drop them off at your house for the day. We’ll see if that changes your mind and fast. It’s truly a blessing but it’s certainly no cake walk.

 

Hope you enjoyed this.

If you have anything to add please feel free to comment.

 

Finally some helpful camaraderie among siblings! 

That is until she runs her sister into a brick wall or something.
