In February 2019, at 12:23 and 12:24 p.m., my life changed in an instant. On the second night after my twin girls were born, we wanted them to sleep in the room with us. That night was the exact moment when I realized that twin parenthood is a totally different beast. We were constantly awakened because one child would fall back asleep, only for the other to wake up shortly after. That cycle continued the entire night. Needless to say, we sent them back to the nursery so we could get some sleep.
