Want to start venturing out

Hi guys! My twins are 6-7 weeks old (hit their due date this week!) and I'm super keen to get out of the monotony of being at home/doing the same dog walk every day, but I'm terrified about having to cope with both of them screaming/feeding/burping simultaneously in a cafe or something without the comforts and ease of my twin feeding pillow etc. Anyone got any tips or recommendations on how to manage a double kick off in a public place when it's just you with them? 🫠🫠

Yes! I was always on my own with mine at first. I used to find somewhere with a couch and I’d lie them either side of me with their heads propped up on my lap to feed them, so we made a + shape of that makes sense?

Or if you have loads of muslins you could lie them alongside you with their heads propped up on rolled muslins (I sometimes use a teatowel inside to create more volume)

Practise at home before you go out. Someone once said to me that if I went out and it was a disaster I could always just come home and I just remembered that lol. Good luck!!

I also went to baby groups with mine fairly early, around 7 weeks. Not for them, but for me to chat to people. I was really brave and just asked at the end who would come for a coffee with me and eventually I made a nice group of friends :)
