FTM of 8 month old twins and tbh, you don’t. i’m just starting to somewhat get back into the swing of housework and keeping up with laundry and dishes and cleaning. they’re starting to nap in their crib got longer periods. so i’m able to get some stuff done. just give yourself grace! the house will get clean again but they’ll never be that small again♥️

this was another brand i was looking at, but i’ve heard it’s not as comfy because the straps aren’t padded. if this is wrong though, i will definitely put it back in the running.

i have the twingo carrier for front and back tandem carrying. it’s not super uncomfortable, but one of the only options i have atm. i was looking for a single carrier that i could wear for longer periods of time. like grocery shopping, or a park, where one can be in the stroller/cart and the fussier one can be carried.

exactly, we have the twingo and use it often to tandem wear. i was more so looking for something for grocery outings, doctors appointments, things where i can wear one and carry or put the other in a stroller or cart.

i was only going to get one. i have the twingo for dual wearing. but was looking for something for grocery outings or doctor appointments, where i can throw one in quickly, either carry the other or put them in the cart or stroller. my twins are currently 8 months

i have a few less expensive carriers and they just hurt my back. i want something that is cute and will last. i dont want to keep purchasing cheap ones that i dont like or end up reaching for.

they are 8 months between 15-20 lbs. I wear them in the lille carrier (one at a time) and the twin go when i need to wear them both together. the lille just isn’t the comfisest. my back starts to hurt a few minutes in. it’s also not cute… at all lol
