Baby buys in doubles

We are soon going to be buying things for the twins. We already are good on diapers so now on to other items! What were some things aside from car seats that you absolutely needed doubles of. We have a 3 year old so we have some stuff already that we will reuse like high chair and cloths but obviously some stuff will need to be repurchases. Just wondering what yours were! And also what's the best stroller for multiple kids? Thanks!!

Re: Baby buys in doubles

  • Boppie pillows (this is where we feed them), cribs, high chairs, mirrors for the car to see their faces when RF in the car seats & RnP's.

    Also, we had 2 swings because my boys loved them and went through a period of only napping in them.  We bought one used.  A lot of people would recommend 2 bouncers.  My boys didn't care for the bouncers, so we only opened one and took the other one back.   

    D & R were born at 37w5d.

  • Another vote for the City Mini Double!

    We have 2 high chairs, 2 pnps (no cribs), 2 rnps. Just one of everything else.

    ETA: We also have 2 boppies. They are very useful--feeding, propping, sitting, neck rest for mama and papa. ;)

  • Here is what I wish I had:
    A double snap and go. I have the city mini and love it. Didn't want to spend more on another stroller, but it would be nice.
    R n p. They don't like sleeping in the p n p anymore.

    My babies were in preemie for 2 weeks. I needed everything smaller, hats, mittens, docks, diapers... I wasn't prepared for nothing I had fitting them!

  • We have two RnPs -- but we only used one. The girls were pretty good crib sleepers from the get-go, after having done it for 3 months in the NICU. We only used the RnP when DD2 was really strugging with her reflux.

    We might have used two swings, but they take up a crap ton of room, so I'm kinda glad we only use one. Only one bouncer as well -- we alternated naps (and still do) between them in the bouncer/swing.

    We do have two high chairs, Boppys (which we don't use a ton, since our girls can't be fed on their backs yet as they still like to choke during bottle feedings).

    That's it -- we pretty much have one of everything else. We do have a playmat AND a KnP Piano -- which has been helpful to have two play locations on the floors for them.

  • The boys have slept in PnP since day one. And will until they are moved to toddler beds. They have a crib and we put them in it in their room starting at 9 months and they climbed out.... so went back to PnP. Thought RnP were a waist. We had two bouncers where we fed them. One swing, were goimg to get another but they didn't like them. Didn't get a DSNG but wished we did.
