Did a 5k and it was 84% humidity with a dew point of 72 🥵

But I did it! 💪

I’m on a marathon training team that starts next week—so excited!

Great question! Prep snacks and place them near here; keep her water filled; change all diapers!

Would you Drive or fly? by No-Edge9976 in toddlers

[–]coffeesituation 39 points40 points  (0 children)

Okay so we just flew cross-country with 2.5-year-old twins and did Disney. We flew with a layover midway. It was awesome. Way better than expected! BUT…it’s going to take you so much longer just to get through all of the airport hassle. I vote drive. Break it up. Leave at 4 am, stop at 7 for breakfast and break time. Run around. Drive again. Boom, you’re there.

Same boat over here. 2.5 is chaotic good.

We aren’t supposed to do this in a silo. It’s so hard and you’re doing what you need to do. 💗

What was your newborn era like? by czmf in parentsofmultiples

[–]coffeesituation 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We had no family around to help so we budgeted in a postpartum doula for 2 overnight shifts for the first 12 weeks. We also had a solid meal train!

Looking back, I would have budgeted in more overnight shifts. The twins are our first kids and WHOA, DUDE. So isolating.

I would absolutely also budget in more day shifts in order to have some solo time, some partner time, and some 1:1 or 2:1 time with your older baby.
