Don't know how this is going to go...
DH and I just found out last night that we are expecting twins... 
Needless to say, we feeling SUPER blessed to have these two on the way... but now the reality is setting in that we are going to have 3 under 3.
Please assure me that this isn't as difficult as I'm imagining it to be...

Re: Don't know how this is going to go...
First, Congrats! Welcome to the twin club. Twins are such a special thing to witness. Their bond and the affection that they have for each other will bring tears to your eyes.
I only have twins, so I am not even going to pretend to understand how it feels to have three under 3. I would definetely (if possible) invest in a mother's helper. Especially if you are going to stay home for awhile. Even if you do go back to work, you still will want someone on the weekends to help out. Having twins in wonderful, but exhausting. Remember to take time for yourself, because you may have times you think you are losing your mind. HA. Schedule is a MUST.

Re: Don't know how this is going to go...
Congrats!!! I know that feeling. DS was 26 months when my twins were born. The twins are now 15 months and DS is 3.5 years. Things are crazy at times but we survived! They've been on the same schedule since day 1 which made things easier. And still at 15 months they are on exactly the same schedule. There are a bunch of moms on here with a toddler and twins who can give you advice. It really is so great having twins

Re: Don't know how this is going to go...
Congratulations! I had 3 under 3. DD was 2 months shy of 3 when the twins were born. It was tough....but better than I ever expected it to be. The first few weeks were the toughest.....and help is needed at that time. You will be exhausted from taking care of the twins all night and then there is a toddler that needs to be entertained all day. My mom helped out a lot then. Now the twins are 8 months and life almost feels normal.
Good luck to you! Happy healthy nine months!

Congratulations!!!
Twin DDs were born 3 months before DSs 3rd birthday. It can be stressful, but it is very doable!

Congrats ! and Welcome to the club
I only have twins so I won't pretend to know what 3 under 3 is like But I would echo pp and say get help! as much as you can afford. The newborn stage is challenging and a LOT of work but twins are amazing blessing.
