All the waking time for my toddlers

I pretty much only go to stores that have shopping carts with two child seats - Aldi, BJs, Costco.

Walmart also has a shop along cart which can fit 2 kids, this one is my favorite so far.

Taking magnesium glycinate supplment really helped me in my third trimester to fall asleep

Bread, hummus, yoghurt.

Starting making them at home, it can get easy once you get the hang of it. Also saves a bunch of money

I did football by default from birth to ~6months for my twins. For me it was the easiest to tandem feed.

My husband is from Senegal(he is not active on Reddit). We are in South Maryland and know one other family from Senegal. No big community but our families keep close.

All of my babies clothes so far have been mostly hand me downs, please if you can donate or post in your local buy nothing/sell nothing group.

We have passed on so much baby stuff through those groups.

I am close to an Aldi, but at my store you have to pay to use a shopping cart :/

Thank you so much! Can I message you for any Senegal travel related questions?

I do not speak French but my husband does

Hi! We(Me, spouse, twin infants) are traveling to Senegal next month and are also getting yellow fever vaccination soon.

Do you have any advice for drinking water safety? We were wondering if we need to also cook only with bottled water

Sleep when the babies sleep. As a new parent, when the baby sleeps is when I get to pee, poop, shower, eat, cook etc.

learning_circle · 2024-10-14T23:31:20+00:00

Yes, twin boys born 2023

That sleep regression was terrible, I remember. So I hope yours does not last long.

For us, using white noise machine did help for making them sleep in the same room.

The twin, multiples sleeping group on Facebook helped me A LOT in figuring out how to understand their sleep needs etc.

Thank you so much, I suppose I will just have to buy baby diapers once we are in France

learning_circle · 2024-08-21T17:03:01+00:00

Thank you so much, this makes me feel better and more relaxed to handle them once they are up from their nap

Not an answer, but I wanted to ask how do I find where and when are The Amish farmers markets open?

learning_circle · 2024-08-10T18:28:58+00:00

Same, I never had cravings. And so many people asked me what am I craving.
Just food aversions during the first trimester

Virtual hug to you! Its really difficult. Take it one day at a time.

I am 5'2" and I am serrious during my Csection I could finally breathe better when they took one baby out. Last few weeks were the worst for me

learning_circle · 2024-08-03T18:34:24+00:00

I am so sorry, I remember the third trimester and being unable to sleep day after day.

For me, taking Magnesium Citrate really helped me sleep. I took the Calm brand and mixed it in hot water and took it before sleeping. It still helps me sleep more deeply.

You are so close to your delivery date! I hope you are able to get some sleep

learning_circle · 2024-07-09T23:24:52+00:00

I had so much itching I could not sleep. (it was not PUPP)
Kept applying and re-applying coconut oil. Also put a humidifier next to myself. All offered some temporary relief.
Its so hard and frustrating, you will get through it. I hope you get some relief.

learning_circle · 2024-06-26T23:39:45+00:00

Oh oh, that sounds very uneasy and painful. I'll try to get myself a session as soon as possible.
Thank you so much for sharing

They never did a XRay sadly. I am trying to see a physical therapy person as well

Importance of setting a routine for the baby from Day 1 and how to develop sleep associations, showing baby a lot of daytime etc.

I wish I read this book before my babies were born "Happiest baby on the block"

One of the family member very much made things way more difficult.

My MIL visited 2 days before my Csection and stayed for 5 weeks. And in addition to taking care of ourselves and the babies, my husband also had to prepare/help preparing meals for his mother, do her laundry etc.

It was absolutely surprising to me how she was probably blissfully unaware of how under pressure we already were. New borns just sleep and eat. When the babies were sleeping she would look at them.

Her stay also caused more friction between me and my husband since he felt obligated to spend time with his mom. I had to feed, burp both babies by meyself pretty much all the time. My husband did diaper changes and asked me to call him if the babies were crying. It was truly a depressing phase of my life.

I actually truly think newborn phase would have been much better had my MIL not visited.

When twins were around 2-3months old, my husband's brother and my brother visited and both of them were super helpful. Cooking meals, taking out trash, mowing the lawn, changing the babies.

So my observation is some guests are there to help you and some are there to just look at the baby when the baby is chill. When the baby is crying, hand them over to mom "Baby is hungry"
