Phil & Teds
Baby Jogger City Select Double
Kolcraft Contours
Graco DuoGlider

Any reviews?



Answer
Most definitely the Baby Jogger City Select! I have one myself and I love it for several reasons

1. Can be used as double, or single when one gets too big for it (and then back again if you have another!
2. the option of the bassinet casing for a seat, which later converts back, also love the carseat adapters... very easy to use and remove.
3. Super easy to fold up, and fold FLAT. All in one simple motion
4. Lots of storage options. The storage area underneath expands, and the handlebars have lots of accessory options, including full size backpacks. And, they don't tip even when you have a lot of weight on the handle bars.
5. Very maneuverable. I live in Boston with legendarily uneven sidewalks. I can get around just fine, and without too much bouncing.
6. Accessories: a self leveling drink holder (you have no idea how great that is on hilly roads). Storage cover- compact enough to use as carry-on on international flights. Belly bar- instead of food tray (also available) the belly bar gives something for kids to grab onto and allows them to lean out more. This was perfect for the zoo and watching the duckies go by.
7. Adorable! It does not look like any other stroller out there, yet has a nearly old world charm in the dark colors (I got black). I get questions all the time on it.
8. great if you baby wear- I wore my infant in a wrap while pushing my twins in the stroller. The handlebar was just the right height for me not to struggle.

Downsides? Can be costly to get new accessories, not the best 'jogger' but will do ok, not usually on sale.

tell me what the first 3 months of twins is like?




Who am I?


Can someone truthfully tell me what the first 3 months of twins is like? And the first year? Is it crazy and insane always? When do you (and when do they!) settle into the routine? Do you always feel stressed and like there is not enough of you to go around? What about if there is an older sibling to care for as well? Details details, please!!! :-)
And also, at what point can you go out and about and not feel like the effort of packing strollers and diaper bags is not worth the errand?



Answer
Well. my b/g twins will be 3 months next week and it hasn't been to terrible. The first 6-7 weeks were like I was in a fog! Sleep deprivation is a terrible thing! They were eating every hour and one was ALWAYS awake! I took to feeding them in bed with me just so I could grab a few minutes of sleep before the other woke up! About the two month mark they started sleeping about 4 hrs a night and I felt like a new woman! Now they have regulated to where they are mostly awake at the same time though they do have slightly different day time nap schedules and sleep at night at the same time. :)! I have a daughter that is 17 and she and my husband are a big help! All the kids tend to rotate so everyone gets special mommy time. My twins are funny how they do it! One will wake up from their nap about 1/2 hour before the other and my daughter gets me all to herself after my husband has left for work and the twins are down for the night. When we run an errend we just keep them in their car seats. The seats fit right into shopping carts and if we go to the mall we don't take a stroller (even though we leave one in the van) we just strap them into snuggies for our walk. We don't take a big diaper bag with us if we are just running around town-we have a couple of bags that look like backpacks and we just have a few diapers and wipes in them-just enough for a quick change as needed. If we go out of town then we take one of the big bags that have a couple of clothing changes and the med kits and such. As we haven't gotten though the 1st year yet I can't answer that but I hope it stays kinda like it is now! Its so much fun! Our new favorite game is "pass the baby". You get extra points if you can pass a baby with a "special" surprise and make a clean getaway!
