What is it really like to have newborn twins, and why is it so hard to do it alone? In this episode of Twin Sleep Talk, I sit down with author and twin mom Rachel Pieh Jones to talk honestly about twin pregnancy, traumatic birth, postpartum depression, and the life-changing power of community.

Rachel shares her experience becoming a twin mom at 21, delivering twins through both vaginal birth and emergency C-section, and navigating the overwhelming postpartum season without asking for help. We talk about newborn twins, breastfeeding struggles, postpartum mental health, and the cultural pressures many mothers feel to “do it all.”

She also shares how living in East Africa transformed her understanding of motherhood, rest, and community, including what postpartum care looks like when mothers are surrounded by support instead of isolation.

This conversation is especially meaningful for:
 • parents of newborn twins
 • moms recovering from birth trauma
 • twin moms struggling postpartum
 • parents who feel guilty asking for help
 • families navigating twin motherhood

As a twin mom, nurse, and sleep coach, I believe parents deserve support, not just survival. This episode is a reminder that twins are a gift, and you don’t have to carry the weight alone.

If your toddlers are suddenly climbing out of the crib — during naps or at bedtime — you’re not alone. In this episode, I’m sharing safe and practical ways to keep your toddlers in the crib longer, prevent crib climbing, protect their sleep… and yours. This applies to both singletons and twin toddlers.

Toddler crib escape behavior is incredibly common between 18–30 months. But switching to a toddler bed too early often leads to bedtime battles, short naps, and endless night wakings. As a certified twin sleep coach, nurse, and twin mom, I’ll walk you through:

✔ what to do when toddlers start climbing
✔ how to keep toddler twins from climbing out
✔ room safety and toddler-proofing tips
✔ when it’s truly time for a toddler bed
✔ special considerations for twin toddlers

My goal is to help you keep your toddlers safe, calm, and sleeping well without power struggles.

In this episode, I’m sharing our real-life experience traveling around the world with newborn twins—including long-haul flights, airport logistics, packing for twins, managing feeds on the go, and how we handled sleep in different time zones.

If you’re a twin parent wondering whether you can travel with newborn twins, this is for you. As a nurse, sleep coach, and twin mom, I’m breaking down what worked, what didn’t, and the tips I wish I’d known before flying internationally with two babies.

We’ll talk about:
✔ Flying with newborn twins
✔ Surviving long-haul flights with babies
✔ Jet lag and sleep for twins
✔ Packing essentials for twin travel
✔ Breastfeeding/bottle-feeding on the go
✔ Travel mindset + expectations

If you’re exhausted, overwhelmed, and trying to make life with twins doable…you’re not alone.
