There's two to kiss, two to hug,
And best of all, there's two to love.

What to Buy for Twins

Starting out you do not need to buy two of everything.  For the first couple of months you can even get buy with just one crib.  I used a Graco Pack n Play with a bassinet for the first couple of months.  You will need LOTS of diapers and baby wipes.  A Double Stroller is also a must if you ever want to leave your house.  Preferably one that is compatible with your also must have infant baby carriers/car seats. That way you don't have to wake a sleeping baby to take them from the car to the stroller.  Bottles, even if you are going to breastfeed; that way you can pump as well.  If you need to pump to produce more breast milk, I highly recommend a Hospital grade breast pump, which you can probably rent from your hospital.  Also a twin nursing pillow to comfortably feed them at the same time (this is possible).  You only need one Baby Tub; and that is not needed right away as you will only sponge bathe your babies until their umbilical cord falls off.  It is not necessary to buy baby towels, they dry off great with our towels.  Lots of onsies, some baby blankets, Baby nail clippers (so they don't scratch their pretty little faces or each other)  And if you can afford it, hire a house cleaner once a week or every other week.  This would be nice even during the second half of your pregnancy as it gets hard to do everything.  I think I covered the must haves, if I forgot something feel free to add it in the comments below.

Twins Survival Guide by Suzannah Peel

So, let me guess. You’ve never worked so hard, you’ve never been so exhausted and this isn’t how you thought it would be You’re sleeping for less than forty minutes at a time. Your relationships are suffering, you’ve forgotten what the outside world looks like and you’ve eaten cereal for supper since the babies were born. Of course, you love your twins with all your heart, you feel lucky and blessed. But you wonder if you can cope. Surely, for the sake of your whole family, there must be ways to make your life with twins more manageable, enjoyable and fun.
Relax. There are plenty of things you can do to achieve this and the help you need is here in ‘Twins: The Survival Guide Ebook’. Because I don’t have to guess how you’re feeling, I’ve been there.
40 minutes sleep at a time, barely functioning, wracked with guilt and self-doubt that I was finding this so very hard, feeling completely useless and alone. Now I know better. I know that there were hundreds, if not thousands, of tips and tricks I could have used to make my life with twins easier. There’s loads of advice out there but being a Mom of twins the trick is having the time to find it. By the time the reality of twins strikes, you’re just too busy.
 Lack of time is where this book comes in. If you’re a mom of twins you probably don’t have time to get dressed or showered in the morning; the last time you exercised was running out of the hospital door after a pregnancy scan confirmed twins.  You certainly don’t have the time to scour the internet for advice on twins and read forty seven, largely irrelevant, baby and twin books. So here it’s all been done for you. ‘Twins – The Survival Guide Ebook’ is the result of my own experience and that of many other twin moms I’ve interviewed. It is the distillation of research from many other books about twins (most of them very long-winded !) hundreds of WebPages and many letters and emails from scores of twin Moms, Dads and other carers who are already doing it or have done it. In short, this book is the advice you’d get if your grandmother, mother, sisters, sisters-in-law, all your friends and your hairdresser had twins!
If you already have twins and want to make your life easier, if you want more time to play with your twins and perhaps your other children, more time with your partner. Even if all you want right now is just more sleep, order this ebook now. You can download it in a few minutes and I guarantee you will immediately find ways to achieve all of this and very much more.  Suzannah Peel   Click here to Order:   Twins Survival Guide e-book
