Moms of Multiples - registry question

Im currently pregnant with twins and have a 21 month old DS at home.

My Mom wants to throw me a sprinkle, so I'm doing a small registry.

What do I need "special" for twins? What do I need duplicates of? I have no clue what I need, other than girl
Clothes.

Thanks so much!!!!

You definitely need a second bounce seat, another boppy, more bottles, new nipples. We only had one swing, one exersaucer and one jumperoo. If both of them love one of those you can always pick up an extra but we just rotated. You'll need another infant car seat and the convertibles. If you use thr bundle mes, you'll need an extra. You might want a carrier if you didn't have one. You'll need a new stroller. Oh, an extra high chair and maybe the portable boosters. An extra camera for the monitor.

I'll keep thinking about it!

Twin my breast friend if you are going to bf
2 boppy pillows
2 bouncy seats
2 high chairs
2 pack n plays if you travel

I had:
1 swing
1 exersaucer
1 jumpers

Def invest in a good carrier (I had an ergo an loved it)
I didn't have a rock n play with the twins but had it with my 3rd and it was great. Even just for going outside and visiting other people's houses.

Double snap n go is a must!

I had pukers and needed a TON of bins and burp cloths.
Congrats!!!

Thank you!! This may be a dumb question, but when you say an infant carrier, that is the same as you'd get for a single baby, right? There aren't any crazy twin carriers or something haha? I have an ergo and planned on registering for an infant insert.

There are some twin carriers but I'm not familiar with all of them. We got two ergos or for me and and dh. You can also tandem carry with 2 ergos front and back when they're older. If you're more interested there's a fb group called tandem babywearing.

Re: Moms of Multiples - registry question

They make twin ones. I never wore my girls. I probably would have if I had one. Looks like it makes grocery shopping easier.

A monitor like the MOtorola which will switch back and forth after they're in separate cribs
A double Pack-n-play
Joovy Roo or Double Snap n go (people practically give them away)
Bath rings
A million washcloths, bibs, and burpcloths
Lots of white onesies
2 bundle-me's
the swing fames by graco to snap the car seats into (takes up less room than a swing and folds up)

And all of the other stuff moms listed.
The twin carrier is called a weego.

These are my MUST haves...

2 Rock & Plays
2 Boppies
2 Swings - I'd be lost without 2!!!
2 Bouncy Chairs or some type of seating
2 High Chairs
Double Snap & Go

I only have 1 pack and play but now that they're bigger, I definitely need to buy another one.

That twin nursing pillow is awesome!
I have to add: Batteries and diapers. I don't know why but we go through a million batteries.

Just to add....


We have b/g and found that color coordinating bottles and pacifiers helped. I'd wind up throwing a bottle on the counter and getting side tracked. Having pink and blue made it so much easier.
