I plan to baby wear the twins once they arrive. I didnt do this with my first but I did with my second and it calmed him down so much. Is there a certain Moby wrap or something comprable that is best for twin use or will I be able to just use the one I have?
Re: Suggestions on a wrap for twins
Are you hoping to wear both at once? Do you have a moby now? You can certainly use that - when they are very small you can do two in one wrap but there are other options that will work better as they get bigger.
I'd suggest seeing if there's a babywearing group near you so you can get some hands on help with tandem carries. And I would get comfortable wearing one at a time first before trying to wear both. Keep in mind twins are more likely to be low birth weight so it's even more important to keep them in an upright tummy to tummy position to prevent slumping and keep their chins off their chests.

i could wear mine in a ring sling (maya wrap) together when they were tiny, ive heard a moby has a similar "twin hold" as does the ktan
After a month or two it was just too much weight to carry that way and I couldnt wear them together until I could wear one on the back and one on the front, for this I like the soft structured carriers (i have one ergo and one becco).
i know you can also wrap them in a woven wrap but i never felt comfortable/had time to learn how to tie one
