Hello my wonderful readers. So over the past couple months I have come up with a list of essential things that we can not live without to survive with twins. Here they are:
1. Bouncer / Swing : I don't know how many times I have had to set one of the babies down to get the other one and these have been a lifesaver. The bouncer also is upright enough for Andrew that has some spit up issues after he eats.
2. Swaddles / Sleep Sacks : Andrew is not really a fan of the swaddles so he is a sleep sack baby but Juliet loves the swaddle, we use them every night.
3. Recliner : We got a recliner last year with our tax money and it is the best thing we have bought in a long time and it has come in handy with rocking the twins and feeding them both at the same time and sleeping haha.
4. Boppy Pillow : We had this with Penelope and it was a lifesaver for setting her down while she was sleeping and she would stay asleep and the pillow has worked wonders with both twins.
5. Dr. Brown Bottles / Drying Rack : When I knew that we had planned to have another baby I started to accumulate Dr. Brown bottles for free from Babies R Us, each month usually they have a buy $25 worth of product and get a free bottle, so now we have about 7 of those bottles and they are wonderful. We have a bottle drying rack this time, which we didn't with Penelope, and we should have had one last time it is so useful and I will be buying one for every baby shower I get invited to.
6. Burp Cloths / Receiving Blankets : These are key things! You can use them for so many different things, burp cloths for the obvious reason cleaning up spit up but also the blankets can be used for that too, receiving blankets can be used for swaddles and just as a regular blanket, so useful!
Hope this list helps someone to get what is actually useful! Lots of Love!
