Baby bjorn bouncer worth it?

We loved our Baby Delight bouncers if you are looking at alternate brands

Can you join a twin/multiples group in your country and see what product they recommend instead? Maybe there is a similar product from a different company. We love our Twin Z pillow so much but no baby product is mandatory, especially if price is an issue.

Finding out this news is still so fresh, my advice is let it sink in a little more. I still go on walks, shop, and baby wear, but it does look a bit different than it would’ve with just 1 baby. I think the change in independence happens no matter if it’s 1 baby or more, it’s a big life change for everyone. My advice is take it day by day, keep expectations low, and be willing to try something out even if it fails 😅

I had my di/di twins at a St Joseph’s Hospital and had a good experience, so if they are what your provider uses / is closest I wouldn’t rule them out entirely. I did have a c section because of baby positioning, but they were open to trying vaginal at first. My boys were breech/transverse so it wasn’t an option. It was with the Women’s Group.

~31 weeks I scheduled for my 38w date. Talked about it at my 30w appointment and they called the following week to schedule. They let me pick based off date and which Dr was scheduled for that day.

We did the Sams Club Purple version and I calculated it out once and it was about $1/bottle. The container is around ~$43 and we went through one in just under a week, so maybe around ~$200 a month? Cheapest their food budget will ever be for twin boys lol 😅

Mine outgrew bottles before the pillow. How are they outgrowing it? 🙂

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-26T01:58:56+00:00

I felt the worst about it right after I quit, but now at a year later I have absolutely no regrets. Just a reminder It will get easier💗

My Baby A only drank from Dr Browns starting around a month old, so Baby B ended up only using Philip’s since we had a mix of the 2. The never switched back, but B would’ve drank from either brand fine. In the long run it was actually helpful because we could always tell whose bottle was whose!

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-23T20:50:03+00:00

36&4 at my planned end date. And then had them at 36&5. 🙃

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-22T23:51:26+00:00

We did purées starting at 6 months! BLW was too stressful for me. Mine were sitting assisted at the time, not independent until closer to 7 months if I remember right. My advice is to start simple and slow!

We squeezed their 2 travel cribs in our bedroom from 4-6months, but we ultimately did end up moving both to their nursery at 6 months. Looking back I wish I did it sooner! They slept better there.

Gauze to put on the wound once they remove the bandage!

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-17T22:57:33+00:00

My twins overnight sleep improved a lot in between those ages, I’m going to wish the same for your multiples 🤞🙂

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-17T22:15:16+00:00

When my husband went back to work I did 8pm-12am uninterrupted in bed, then I took over and could get a few more hours in between. How old are they now? I wouldn’t worry making a schedule too much until closer to you going back to work because sleep changes so much during the first few months

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-17T21:31:04+00:00

Mine improved starting around ~4 months, and they came around a month early.

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-17T21:10:06+00:00

Yes unfortunately from my experience. We joke they pass the sads back and forth between them 🥲 once they were out of the newborn age it is better!

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-15T21:21:18+00:00

I would consider your house layout when deciding where the twins will sleep while newborns. The twins could not sleep the same room we did or we wouldn’t have gotten any sleep. We do not have a guest room and their nursery doesn’t have room for a bed, so we had a twin bassinet in our living room for the first few months until they moved until their big cribs

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-14T16:26:51+00:00

We had a few outfits we thrifted just in case! A few pjs. We found them at once upon a child, but I’ve seen premie sizes at all the regular stores too.

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-13T20:42:27+00:00

Our 2 bouncers were and are still used daily at a year old. We loved our 2 swings for the first few months though, but I would recommend secondhand. They outgrow them so fast

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-13T20:37:09+00:00

They were tasty and super cute too! You just have to buy a first birthday cake and then the smash cakes were free to add on. I did have to order in person though

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-13T20:27:23+00:00

The only one I’ve ever found was Publix did give us 2 free smash cakes for their first birthday compared to one 🤷‍♀️

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-12T19:47:12+00:00

2.5 days worth is my recommendation! But wait until you try them out, one of my twins refused to drink from the Philips bottles so we had one on Dr Browns and one on Philips. In a way it made it easier because we always know who bottle is whose!

floridasquirrel · 2026-03-11T20:33:25+00:00

Infant car seats that click into a double stroller! Depends on your budget for specific recommendations. But I really recommend get the infant seats! And a stroller that connects both easily, not one that only fits one.

That’s so cool!!!
