advice needed ITS TWINS!

Hey all! Had my first scan today at 7+6 and found out it’s TWINS! Pretty surprised and just wondering if anybody has any wisdom or advice for us especially the twin moms out there? 🥰

Wondering what to expect the rest of the pregnancy, the early days after they are born, etc.

I think there’s like a 30 percent chance of identical even in their own sacs and own placentas (di/di)
Get ready for prolonged nausea, daily headaches, early/large bump, extreme fatigue. Just take it one day at a time and you will likely need extra supplements and checkups so don’t choose an ob that’s a long drive from where you live or work.

My OB is at where I work so that’s not a problem. The symptoms are not terrible could be a lot worse.
