Twins Moms - did you use a glider?
Baby Bargains suggests skipping glider and purchasing loveseat, since the gliders are too small for breastfeeding two babies at once.
I wonder if any twin moms have used gliders at all or is it a complete waste of money?
TIA

I still use my glider every night and my Dc will be 3 next week. It's an essential part of our bedtime ritual.
Don't know about breastfeeding though.

It's not practical for tandem breastfeeding. I had a queen sized bed in the nursery where I slept so I breastfed in bed and downstairs on the couch during the day.
I bought a used one. We read stories on the living room couch so I only use it very rarely.

I BF them separately on the glider at night before bed, and read to them on it together.

same here.
honestly though, I could have done without it.
ETA: actually, sometimes I do nurse them in it at night. One at a time. We wouldn't have room in the nursery for a loveseat, lol

Thanks for your responses So it is not a necessity, but rather a nice to have item if the budget permits.
