1. Lots of tears during the day (LKChop)

1. Lots of tears during the day
--------------------------------------------------------

 Wondering if this is just typical of twin babies... my
 8.5 month identical twin boys, who are mostly very good
 natured and social, cry so easily at home during the
 day. They can only play on their own for a few minutes
 at a time. At their best, they scoot around happily
 exploring and laughing. But we have so many episodes
 where I'll be feeding or playing with one and the other
 will dissolve into tears just watching us. I've only
 got 2 hands and find myself putting one down to soothe
 the other, often causing the one to start crying
 instead. I've tried speaking sweetly to the crying son
 while still feeding/playing with the other, but the
 tears don't abate and go on and on. Yes, I can
 sometimes play with both of them but it usually isn't
 satisfying enough for either of them to not have my
 full attention. They also get hysterical when they are
 hungry or when they are not the first one picked up
 out of their cribs after a nap.This is not new, so I
 hesitate to link it to specific developmental stages.
 But it has gotten worse the last few days, which does
 coincide with their increase in mobility.Yes, I'd love
 to find a solution. But mostly I'm just hoping to find
 out if a lot of tears is common for parents of
 multiples. Many thanks.
