1. Bouncy seats- we used these A LOT
during the first three months. The babies loved being bounced and for a while,
the only way they wanted to take naps was in these seats. I would never have
been able to get any dishes done or any dinner made if I hadn’t been able to
strap one baby to my chest in a carrier and bounce the other baby with my foot
in their bouncy seat.
2. Swings- These are wonderful. You will
probably want two. We love having one of the Fisher Price swings that swings
front to back AND can switch to swinging side to side because one twin only
wanted to be swung one direction while the other only wanted to be swung the
other.
3. Snap’n go double stroller. We looked at
LOTS of strollers and finally decided on the Snap’n Go double stroller by Baby
Trend. I love it because it is super light, and easy for me to use by myself on
errands (I go somewhere every day). I also love the big wheels and really like
how easy it is to push this stroller up hills (It’s so light I can even run it
up hills).
4. Baby Carriers. Our babies get really
cranky at night and what has helped my husband and I to maintain our sanity and
have some nice couple’s time, is that we take our babies on a walk every night.
We each strap a baby to our chests (my mother-in-law made ours… but you can buy
lots of different kinds at the store) and we go exploring for 40 minutes or so.
Our babies love it. Even now, if they are cranky, all I have to do is pull the
carriers out and they will stop crying and just hold their breath in excited
anticipation.
5. Breastmilk Freezer Storage Bags.
