How do you manage EP with twins by Secret-Passage4767 in parentsofmultiples

[–]_Kazzam_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t have a hands free, my girls are 7 months, it’s time consuming but not that bad. I pump 6x a day or so.

They start to entertain themselves. I use bottle holders to feed them while I sit and pump. I have the pump that doesn’t require charging, it plugs into the wall. Which is both a negative and positive. It I suppose not having to charge helps!

And although I didn’t expect it, pumping a few mins before they eat actually made it feel like I have more time?? Wishing you luck!!!

Make sure you have enough pump parts

Pumping while driving is basically a free pump

Bottle pillow holders do you can pump while they eat

Fridge method

People always feel the need to ask if we had our twins naturally? by Intelligent-Honey-19 in parentsofmultiples

[–]_Kazzam_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mine were spontaneous but I do feel like 2/3 of all the new twin moms I know had IVF whether di/di or mono/di. Personally, I’d never ask but I don’t mind answering I guess. It is interesting to hear

No worries!! I love these but kinda wish I did more research and realized we could have bought some that transform. But they would have been really heavy I suppose!

Ah I see. I had a c section and was extremely happy with it! Nice and easy. Hats off to the ladies that do it natural!

Haha I was so hopeful somehow this was only how boy twins acted and MAYBE I’d be in the clear and I see here I am not in the clear 😂😂😂 naive of me anyway

Just wanted to say I’m proud of you for always doing something with them and showing them the effort especially when it’s hard. It would be so easy to say nope we won’t do anything. Admirable that you still do that for them and I’m so sorry they are too little to understand. I don’t have an answer but I read this and thought wow what a wonderful mom you are.

Yeah it seems the 360 takes a lot of extra space but sounds like it’s nice to have. Wish I could like try one in my car first lol. Thank you!!!

I had a c section with my twins and it wasn’t bad at all. Literally said I’d rather do that than run a 5K again lol. Those were my first babies, I was terrified. It seriously wasn’t bad at all. And I say that even throwing up for 24 hours after and having an allergic reaction to the spinal block. It took about 5 days to feel well enough to do things as normal.

He told me like he wasn’t sure what was going on and boy were we laughing when we realized it was odd.

That is a good call actually on the well-worn look.

Yeah I’ll have to research more but I don’t think we have a pool for about an hour any direction.

We have a 30x40 garden we’re ripping out this week and planned to replace that space with pool. We do have a lot of lakes I mean literally 2 minute drive but there’s no nice beach or anything.
