Hi everyone! My cousin just announced to the family today that she's pregnant with her second set of twins. We were all together today to celebrate the FIRST birthday of her other set of twins. So, about March, she's going to have four children under the age of two. [shock] While my cousin isn't my very favorite person in the world, I can still sympathize with the situation. She was on the pill (supposedly), & she became pregnant on accident. She's a teacher, & her husband is a nurse, so she'll probably miss out on a whole semester of teaching when the babies come.

Her mom asked me if I had ever heard of any programs that help out mothers who have more than one set of multiples. She thought she'd heard of Pampers, Huggies, Gerber, (companies like those) offering special coupons or discounts for situations like that. Have any of you ever heard of programs like that? I hadn't. I'm going to check out their websites, but I was wondering if anyone knew anything about it.

Thanks guys!

most of the major "baby brands" have mailing lists you can sign up for that will send you samples of products and coupons. there really is no guarentee of what you get for the most part, but you never know what can come in handy. any coupons she doesn't use she could probalby trade with other moms for useful coupons to herself etc. that's what i've been doing. all my formula coupons have been traded out for Thyme Maternity clothing coupons so I can get good deals on nursing bras and all that sort of supplies.

i wish her the best of luck with 2 sets of 2! i can say i don't envy her, one is going to most likey be the end of me.

Thanks Katz, I'll let her know about the mailing lists. As I'm sure you'll understand, she's still a little shellshocked by the prospect.
