Abstract: In a prospective study with 161 mothers of twins, we show the contribution of the twinhood circumstances (e.g., first or non-first infants, similarity), mothers’ mental distress, differentiation of self, and marital satisfaction when the twins were two years old, to the personal growth of mothers two years later.
