let's talk pack n plays for twins
We are thinking co-sleeper for next to bed after LO's are born. However, trying to find a good pack n play to use for twins to keep downstairs to put kiddo's in during the day. Any recommendations? (DH was thinking getting another co-sleeper for downstairs, but then it has to be butted up against wall and i'm not sure that will be possible with all the stuff we will have now.)

Re: let's talk pack n plays for twins
We had a cosleeper next to our bed and a pack and play downstairs. We have a pretty no-frills pack and play. It had a diaper changer but we didn't use it for that. We set up a diaper changing station on top of a cabinet b/c I didn't trust putting my baby on it. My twins just turned 1 and we are now using the pack and play more than ever now, mostly to contain one or both of them so my husband and I can eat dinner without someone on our lap. They never really napped in the pnp, I always tried to put them in the crib, or sometimes they catnapped in the swing. HTH!
B/G twins born 5/12
I hated our twin PnP. Too big. Bassinet part extremely flimsy and ours completely tilted towards the middle.
We used it ONCE. Ever. Never pulled it out again.
We quickly purchased 2 bassinets. Used them for one month.
Babies slept better in swings and/or bouncy seats for the next 5 months.
Crib at 6 months.
Good luck!!
The co-sleepers are a pain to set up, so it's nice to have a PnP too because they are more portable. We had one with a diaper changing area/ bassinet. It worked out fine. One was enough. The few times we traveled and needed an extra we were able to rent it or get one from the hotel.
