Two Under 2

What will I need 2 of?

Ok so my DS will be 15 months when this baby hopefully makes its safe arrival. What all will I need double of?

Obviously, nursery furniture, a second camera for the monitor, and a car seat....

what else do you recommend? A double stroller ( my DS loves going for walks) another high chair, should I have another PNP for trips?

What do you think?

Re: What will I need 2 of?

  • Have you thought about little things that DS might not be ready to part with but worked well for him?

    My DD will be 18months when DS is born in June and we'll be getting a couple duplicates, ex. her Cloud B giraffe sound machine (we'll be gettin

  • My DS isn't really attached to much. He's got one lovey and that's it. He doesn't even take a paci.

    But yes, another sound machine is a definite! Thank you. I will look into those pods. 2 PnP would suck huh?!

  • first off, congrats!

    Mine are 14m apart. 

    the answer is: not much. Another humidifier, another camera, if you have a different sex, blue/pink clothes and blankets

    We moved DD to a mattress on the floor when she was a year old. So

  • I love my double stroller and I bought another sound machine.  I wouldn't buy another highchair.  I'd buy your older LO a booster with straps.  IMO, the pack n play is outgrown by 2.5-3, so I'd avoid buying another one.

  • Mine are a little farther than yours, close to 19 months apart, but we didn't have two of anything except a monitor (sound only for both). And a new car seat for DD1, but she needed that anyway :)

    We kept DD2 in the Rock'n'Play in our room while

  • We didn't have many doubles. We got a second crib and dresser. No second monitor, since our oldest rarely wakes up at night and if she does, we can hear her anyway. No high chair, just got a booster. We do have a double stroller.
  • Mine are 13.5 months apart and we didn't get that many doubles. 

    We got 2 cribs, rocking chairs, sound machines, humidifiers, bulb syringes (for sucking snot), 2 cameras for our monitor. I also got a 2nd convertible car seat and a double str

  • Mine are 14 months apart.  We got a 2nd crib (both convertible cribs) and I'm glad that we did.  We did not get a 2nd high chair - we already had a travel booster seat and so just used that for DD when DS needed the high chair.  Instead of

  • congrats from Aug 12! I found that I had a lot of gently used or unused duplicates for the baby, so didn't need much for him. Since the newborn weeks will be a blur and 3rd tri a little difficult, I'd anticipate what LO1 will need during that time - thing
  • Congrats!! Good to see another PAL on here.  My 2 will be 18 or 19 months apart, so I didn't really see a lot of need to het duplicate stuff. We did get another crib & are using the other furniture in one of the guest rooms for this LO.

  • We didn't get a second high chair, we bought a booster chair with a tray that strapped to one of our kitchen chairs.  It is nice and a space saver.

    I have a double stroller .

    We also have two of the cloud b night light animals.

    This thread has been great advice!  The only thing different I'm planning is I will be getting a second high chair.&nbsp
