Quick question: Do we need bouncers if we have RnPs?
We are having twins, and the RnPs are on everyone's must have lists -- so we bought those already, but should we get bouncers as well? We live in an apartment and don't have a ton of room..... We are getting a pair of boppies to prop the babies up in, so I wasn't sure if we would need bouncers..... ideas?

We lost our beautiful Twin baby girls on June 18, 2014. Tavin Sara and Casey Elizabeth were born at 21 weeks gestation and were absolutely beautiful, precious, amazing babies. We miss our daughters every day and love them with all our hearts.
I wouldn't consider a RNP to be the same as a bouncer. That being said, some babies love them and some hate them. I'd get 1 bouncer and 1 swing and see how it goes. If you can find them second hand or borrow from a friend that would be even better.
Thanks. Okay - will add one to the registry I guess

RNp did nothing for DD. But she loved her swing and her bouncy chair. I second getting at least one bouncy chair. If your babies don't like it you can sell it or maybe even return to the store. Get a bouncer that vibrates though , it really calmed lo down and not all of them have this feature!
For us the RnP only got used for the first few months. The bouncer we used much longer than that - we put it in our bathroom for DS to sit in while we got ready.
