Your best efforts...: will be good enough. Please keep your perinatologist, and OB informed. Babies are the ultimate parasite. They will stay healthy longer than the host. Try to eat many small meals a day.High calorie foods, High in Protein. Two babies will put pressure on your stomach so you will have a smaller stomach to work with.Listen to your cravings as well they are trying to tell you something.
