What kind/size of blankets to swaddle twins together?
Hey - for those who swaddled twins together, what kind or what size of swaddling blankets did you use?
Would these work?
They're 44" x 44."
large swaddling blankets
*Also, did you individually swaddle each baby first and then swaddle them together?
Or just used one big swaddle?
TIA!

Those would work. I only swaddled them together a few times when they first came home. I did it like the hospital, one swaddle only. Swaddling them individually first defeats the purpose. Their bodies keep each other warm.

I used the Halo Sleepsack with swaddle and did them separately.
I didn't really stress over them being so close to each other all the time. Heck, when they went to the nursery they kept them on opposite sides of the room!!

Same.
I had a hard enough time in beginning swaddling one 
ETA: I swaddled using Swaddle Me's.
I tried the blankets...they always broke loose.

I never thought to swaddle together. I'd think they would wake each other.

Lol...someone on here mentioned that it was very effective to swaddle together & another twin mom told me that once she started doing this, they slept through the night.
Worth a try!
Thanks for the responses!

I never swaddled together. I would swaddle them separately and then they slept next to each other all snug and cute under another blanket.

Never swaddled together either. Used SwaddleMes because they broke out of a blanket swaddle very easily and then woke themselves with movement.
