Did you know that in the last two decades, the numbers of multiple births have increased dramatically in Australia? Experts suggest that this is owing to the fact that the use of fertility drugs and pregnancy inducement treatment such as in-vitro fertilisation is on the rise in Australia.

Around 95% of multiple births in Australia are twins. What this might mean for some is double blessing, while for some others, double trouble!

Know each twin baby’s personality. Their individual differences can be a thing to consider when looking at the type of gifts to buy your baby twins.
