"gear" for twins
DH, DS and I walked around BBB today to try to figure out just what we needed to get, and I think I am more confused than ever. We were thinking about getting an additional swing (second-hand or borrow), an additional bouncy seat, an additional boppy, a double snap and go, and a double stroller. I think we'll be okay with one baby bath, one excersaucer, and I still have a borrowed jumparoo  that I think I can hold on to. What do you ladies think?

Re: "gear" for twins
i felt the same way.. i had no idea what to get and how many!!
i found that what worked for me was
definitely the snap and go.. that was just huge!! so easy to get around !
we waited to get a regular stroller until they grew out of the snap and go.
i only got one swing and figured if they both LOVED it we would buy another.. and turns out , only one like the swing so it worked out!
i got 2 boppy's so i can feed them at the same time! or just so they can hang out in them.
2 bouncers becaused they literally lived in those things for the first couple months.
and i took a gamble and got 2 exersaucers , turns out they love them too.. they entertain themselves for a while!!

Re: "gear" for twins
a 2nd swing is a good idea and definaltey two boppys and bouncers.
one bath is all you need and i think the jumparoo and exersaucer are good, as long as you have something to put them both in it doesnt have to be the same toy.

Re: "gear" for twins
That is basically what we have. The only difference is the swing...I wouldn't suggest getting a second one, at this point. I only got one because people said you just don't know if both babies will like it, and they were right.
Neither one of my twins really enjoy the swing. I kind of regret getting an expensive one! So, I would wait on that one.
I would definitely suggest two bouncy seats and two boppys. With the other things (the jumperoo and exersaucer), you can rotate them through.
Also think about monitors that have multiple cameras, especially since you have another LO.
