Having Twins - Advice?
Soon to be (first time) mom! Wondering what we really need for twins? Two of all the big items will add up quickly! What’s needed?

Thank you! So much to learn! So I don’t need 2 bassinets? Also, what about swings? Do/did you have a stroller that you loved? If so what?
It depends, if yoh are getting the bigger sized bassinet then I'd say get one to start and one later on when they're too big to share? Or just moved them onto the next bed. A swing or bouncer chair I'd say get 2, especially when they get that bit older and have longer wake windows. I had a single travel system and got extra car seat, But I mostly used a stretchy wrap and carried because honestly it was so much easier. I found the pram to be a nightmare, plus it was during covid restrictions so I didn't really leave the house!!

I'd say for big items you want their own cribs and chairs. They can pretty much share everything else. If you are going to bath separately ect then just one baby bath or bath seat. If bottle feeding you're gonna want alot! Like 20-30 bottles easily. So I'd recommend microwave sterilisers as they are quicker and cheaper to run. A bottle warmer also. When they are so little you can get away with putting them in the same bed, just get what you can afford xx
