Do you take them out?

How often do you take the kids out to stores with you? We were waiting until they got their shots and now that they have, I am kind of afraid to take them out bc I dont want them to get sick or germs.

Re: Do you take them out?

I have in the last couple of weeks started to take out the babies more - at least once a day (and not necessarily to stores). Because my boys were preemies, I have been ultra careful. They have their shots and they also receive synagis (RSV vaccine) so i feel much more comfortable taking them out now. However, even when I am out, I go early in the morning or a off peak times... it's still nerve racking because you attract so much attention!

I really have not. I take them out for walks and we went to Old Navy and the Fortunoff Christmas Store but that was about it. Too many people stare, ask questions.....plus they still eat every three hours so it's kind of hard to feed two at the mall like some mom's do with one.

Oh and i took them to babies r us, but you really need someone with you. The stroller can't carry too much for you so it's a royal PIA. I was looking enviously at mothers with one in their carseats on top of their carts...can't do that with two.

I took them out from week one. My Dh and I always enjoyed the attention and all the questions people would ask.
Its a lot of work getting them all packed up and out of the house, but I always enjoyed being out and not cooped up all the time.

Re: Do you take them out?

I take them, out and have taken them to BRU,Lowes, and even Marshalls.

It is tough, because you cant buy too much with 2 carseats. I also feel like Im RUSHING as well, so I can get them home in time for the next feeding.
I also get so many comments. It is nice, but sometimes when you are in a rush, it is annoying

I would take them out alot, since I hated being cooped up. Most of the time I would have my mom with me, but it was doable without her also. I would feed them while we were out all the time, since they were on a 3 hour schedule.
