Top Things You’d Like Our Listeners to Take away After Listening to Your Story
- The only thing I wish I had done differently was not accepting help following my vaginal twin birth. I wanted so badly to prove to myself that I was one of “those” twin moms. One of the ones who had it all together and had a perfectly laid out plan. I soon realized that no one has it all together. I was already one of “those” twin moms simply because I had twins who were healthy and thriving.
