Registry advice, please
I’m reregistering at Babies R Us, was wondering if you girls have any insight for things I’ll need extra of i.e. bottles or things that I didn’t need with DD, but will probably need for the twins.
Thanks

Re: Registry advice, please
Well, this would be my list..
2 boppies for feedings. We sat on the couch with one on either side.
more bottles. At the height I think we needed 18 to get through a 24 hour period
2 infant to toddler rockers
another crib, obviously... and bedding
another high chair
2 more car seats
maybe another crib mobile
maybe another playmat
more burp cloths
more bibs... I used to wash a lot of bibs
more onesies
diaper, diaper, wipes, wipes...
Normally, I would say the double snap and go but I know you also have DD. I just saw a twin mommy with an older DD that had a quad stroller because she could store more stuff where the fourth child would normally sit.
As far as exersaucer, jumperoo, etc. I would just rotate DC's through the circuit like a mini version of Curves . I'd wait on getting a second of those things because they take up so much room. If you can borrow one from a friend that would be great.
I'll try to think of more... wow, it seems like so long ago.

This is a pretty good list. I got 2 boppys, 2 high chairs, two car seats (also got 2 older boy car seats), 2 baby to toddler rockers.
I also would suggest getting one of those donut things that you can prop a bottle with. It slides through the bottle and is weighted down at the bottom. My MIL found these when I was in all type of sleep deprivation hell and they were a miracle for us. We used them for night feedings (feeding two at the same time makes those go a lot faster) and when I was home solo. They are by far the best thing I got. There are just times it will be too hard to feed both of them. While the picture is not what i did with it, I place both boy in their boppy's and then turned their head to the side and put the bottle and proper on that side and they sucked away!
Everything else - exersaucer, swing, playmat, tub etc. I got one of.

Another monitor, another car mirror and I think the previous posters hit it all!

You probably already know this, but just get the 8 ounce bottles. I had a bout 20 of the small ones and then had to get the same for the 8 ounce. Bottles were everywhere.
My girls had different bottles. One had born free fat and the
other dr browns skinny. this was easier for me since at one
point there were on dfferent formulas
get an extra swing. also the crib positioners were great especially since they are in the same crib in the beginning.
