This is so exactly true. And it’s why I tell new/expectant M.o.M.s to seek out a local multiples’ club. Only another MoM gets it completely – and will be willing to provide the support (extra eyes/arms) you’ll need!

Now we just need to start MoM-owned businesses so we can work with people who “get it.”

Samantha, you said it! I just don’t have time to care what the other moms think.

I’m always shocked how many people comment about me having my hands full and yet don’t offer to hold the door or anything. Amazing!

Yep, I get this too! I think singleton moms just can't put themselves in our shoes even enough to guess how to help. Ah well. Yay MoMs! .-= Kristin from Intrepid Murmurings´s last blog ..Juggling =-.

SOOOOOOOOO TRUE! I have often called myself a “twin snob” because I love twin playgroups and my MoM friends, but have struggled with singleton groups.

It does get better as the kids get older though. I FINALLY feel like I fit in a little better with the non-twin groups, but my twin friends will always be at the top of my list!

I love your post! I wish I could sync up my schedule with other MOMs, but unfortunately I have to take what I get. I finally found a singleton mom with the same schedule. I can tell its not the same as wtih another MOM, but it’ll have to do. Things don’t come in pairs for me either.

I couldn't agree more. I have a girlfriend I met at my MoMs group who has twins 10 days older than mine. We were on bedrest at the same time, tackled breastfeeding together and are now chasing toddlers. We're so busy we hardly see each other, but we randomly text each other and know exactly what the other one is going through. It's amazing, especially since we've known each other only a couple of years. .-= Lisa´s last blog .. =-.

This is so true! When I had my singleton, I often felt like there was sort of this unstated competition among mothers. Now that I have twins, it is like the MoMs realize that one doesn't have time for that kind of BS! My experience with other mothers of multiples has been absolutely positive. .-= Samantha´s last blog ..Arts and Crafts =-.
