USING THE TRIAL AND ERROR METHOD IS BASICALLY YOUR ONLY OPTION
ITS ONLY NORMAL TO MESS UP OR FORGET THINGS SOMETIMES
YOU MAY HAVE TO GET SOMEWHAT EXTREME WITH THE BABY PROOFING IF YOU EXPECT TO EVER SNEAK AWAY FOR A PEACEFUL BATHROOM OR CIGARETTE BREAK
ORGANIZATION WILL HELP YOU BE MORE TIME EFFICIENT AND STAY CALM AND COLLECTED WHEN THINGS GET A LITTLE HECTIC
THE SMALLEST THINGS MAKE THE BIGGEST DIFFERENCE
MUST HAVES & LIFE SAVERS!
Twin Z Pillow
This was the most used item i had for my girls! They loved it, and i knew they were close to each other and safe while in it.
LEARN 2 SIT
Sitting them up to play while facing each other was always so much fun to watch! plus it gets boring for them to always be laying back.
PACIFIER POUCH
There were times that I probably went through 10 pacifiers a week. They lose them, you forget them, they just disappear! With out their pacifiers they aren’t too happy and 2 mad babies is much worse than just one mad baby.
GERBERS SMART FLOW BABY FOOD POUCHES
The flavors these come in are really interesting and fun to pick out. Its great to feed them a balance of fruits and veggies. Mostly though, they are huge time savors and let you be a little lazy for a change
if its just you and both babies on a shopping mission… things can get a little chaotic. Especially before they are able to sit up on their own. Id recommend going shortly after they take a good nap, but never during feeding time.
taking them shopping before they can sit up on their own is a challenge, what worked best for me was to have one baby in a body carrier or sling, while using a thick shopping cart seat cover with a good support pillow in the seat of the cart. That’s the way to go if you are going to need the basket part of the cart for your stuff. There’s also a thing called a Buggy Bench I haven’t tried it yet, but I think its a solid idea. or, if your babies don’t weigh all that much and your comfortable with it then you can simply use a twin body carrier.
Its best to stick to short, quick lists. Mostly because space to put your items is very limited since you are only able to push one shopping cart by yourself.
