Try your absolute best to get your twins on the same schedule early on…for your own sanity! Thankfully by the time our twins arrived, we had gone through infant schedules with our first two children. We knew roughly what we wanted and what we didn’t from the get-go, so if you’re not in this position, it may take a little trial and error, but it is SO worth it. If you can feed your twins at the same time, change them, play with them, bathe them and bed them both at roughly the same time, you may actually get some time for yourself, or at least time to reset and recharge for it all to start over again! Babies love routine and you will love it too. 2. Use some forethought and plan ahead. Whether you’re staying home or being brave and going on an outing with your twins, it’s extremely helpful to think ahead and plan for what your babies will want. When my twins were sleeping, I would be washing dishes, meal-prepping, doing laundry, and making bottles. If I wanted to go out, I packed the car with the stroller, a carrier, several diapers and changes of clothes, burp cloths, on-the-go snacks, and toys before I had to do it all with babies in my arms! Planning ahead is essential to keeping the chaos at bay. 3. Take Elsa’s lead and “Let it Go!” After all is said and done, you simply can’t control it all. Take time to acknowledge and appreciate all that you have done to prepare for battle, and when things don’t go according to plan, let it ride. Everything will be okay! We all experience messy, hard times, but what is important is how we react to them, which directly impacts how we feel. Take a deep breath when something goes awry, know that it will pass, and just let it go.CONTACT USDownload the Twiniversity App: For twin pregnancy tracking and twins baby tracking!
