Preparing for Twins

By: Amanda Coggin (View Profile)

  1. Stroll Away Happy. A good stroller can carry your twins from infancy to toddler. Some take up more room while cruising down the street, while others stack their seats, allowing the front seat to turn around so your twins can entertain one another. Baby Gaga does a nice job comparing all double strollers, giving each a grade for the three-C’s: child safety, convenience, and comfort.
  1. Time for Mom (and with Your Partner). Having one child can put a wrench in couple’s time, but with two, it’s even more important to schedule in dates with your partner and for yourself. Schedule dates together, those things you used to do before you had your kids, then schedule a babysitter.
  1. Roll with It. Humor goes a long way. If you can laugh during the madness, you’ll have more energy for yourself, your partner, and your kids will pick up on the emotion, which will keep them happy as well.
