A mum of twins has pleaded for strangers to avoid making one common comment when they meet her five-month-old babies. Cami Vidal says the last observation she and other mothers of twins want to hear is that they "must have their hands full".
Cami, 35, says although the people who say it are well-meaning, she is sick of hearing it, and it sounds negative to women who might already be feeling overwhelmed. And she suggests that instead people could give her a boost by playing up the positive aspects of her situation.
Sharing a post on Instagram, she wrote: “I’m saying this with love and kindness. Can you please STOP telling me my hands are full.
