 We had a night nanny 3-4 nights a week. I honestly
 think we couldn't have survived without the help. If
 you're only going to have one kind of help, I'd suggest
 having it at night. However, I know a lot of people on
 this board have used mother's helpers during the day.
 Cheaper than paying a nanny or doula, but still someone
 to help out. My husband got laid off with a severance
 package right after my babies were born while I was on
 maternity leave (so we both got paid to stay home with
 our babies!), so we had each other. But if I had been
 home alone with them, that's what I would have done for
 a few hours a few days a week. Just someone to be
 around to help with laundry, washing bottles/pump
 parts, burp babies, watch them so you can take a shower
 or a nap... It's really hard to be alone all day with
 baby twins, so if you can afford the help, get whatever
 you can. Even if you do things with the babies on your
 own, it's nice to have help with all the other stuff!

 I agree with all of the above -- it seems harsh, but if
 you keep repeating something along the lines of "you
 throwing your food on the floor tells me you don't want
 it" and take it away
