Angel Care for twins in same crib?

SIL and BIL just found out they are expecting twins (yay!) and we've been recommending the Angel Care to them since we got it for DS almost 2 years ago. Does anyone know if there is something similar that can be used for twins that will be sleeping in the same crib? I was thinking that the regular one would really only confirm that at least one baby is still breathing....

TIA!

Two years ago there wasn't. When my DH originally hooked up both pads the alarm went off because DS was so small only the first pad was registering him and not the second. You use two pads once they reached a certain size. DH didn't read the instructions when he first put it together.

We used the Baby Sense monitor and put them in separate cribs from day one. They also did not come home together.

I can't see how you could possibly have something that would work. It senses the minute movement of an infant breathing. If at least one of them are breathing, it won't go off. You can't use two pads, because they could move around, and the far one could still pick up the movement of the other DC. You would need something physically attached to each DC, like a chest strap or something, which I haven't seen yet.
