I would like to echo all the good advice given so far.
I, too, relinquished my son without realizing how devastating it would be to the rest of my life. Visit the boards often, read many different stories so that you can get as many perspectives as possible and find a good counseling program. Never forget that this decision is never one that should be made in haste for the effects of your decision, either way, will be lifelong.
I would also like to take a moment to advocate for the father's side since not much was mentioned. I know you know very little about him, but even if all you know is his name and city where he lives (or lives near) you can zabasearch him to locate him. I realize that you hardly knew him, but he can help you if you decide to parent your twins. Financially, anyway, he doesn't have a choice.
