    Anyone interested in a “cooking for multiples” sub?

    @mendicant If you have oats you can add them to the pancakes and it makes them firmer. It does require a blender though. I’ve had good luck finding cheap kitchen gadgets like that at good will for a reasonable price!

    I need help - baby is not gaining weight

    @apa Please don’t wait until Tuesday and supplement with formula now. You can keep pumping sure, but making sure baby is gaining weight should be priority number 1. Baby should have regained birthweight by 3 weeks old.

    What in the world do you all feed your 9 and 10 month olds? I’m at a loss, PLEASE HELP!

    @justanotherabdullah Our kids are 6 months and we are doing baby led weaning so they feed themselves solid foods. Solid Starts has a free app that shows you how to cut/prepare different foods. As long as there isn’t too much salt, almost anything is fair game.

    When did u introduced toddler beds

    @bchapman We transitioned them to toddler beds at 26 months. We just pushed them together and throughout the night they end up sleeping next to each other. They have similar sleep needs and don't really wake each other up.

    Double umbrella stroller reds for big (>40 lb) 3 y.o. twins

    @am1inside That’s why I suggested the connector. It’s not perfect but gets the job done.

    Double umbrella stroller reds for big (>40 lb) 3 y.o. twins

    @am1inside Yes. Easier on public transport, airports, planes as well. Also provides way more options if you want to split up and do things with one kid instead of both or take them to different stuff.

    Double umbrella stroller reds for big (>40 lb) 3 y.o. twins

    @am1inside I would for sure get 2 single strollers. You can get a connector on Amazon if you want, but we definitely prefer traveling this way. The weight limit is 50lb

    34 Weeks Doppler scan says Twin A at 2.2Kg and Twin B at 1.58kg. Should we be worried?

    @puckharist You can always call your care team now and ask to have someone explain the report to you. In my experience when something was wrong the MFM doctor saw me before I left the ultrasound to talk through the results.

    34 Weeks Doppler scan says Twin A at 2.2Kg and Twin B at 1.58kg. Should we be worried?

    @puckharist Only your OB/MFM team can tell you because it will depend on a number of factors not just the size discordance. My di/di boys started developing a weight discordance around week 32 and my MFM basically told me we will keep them in as long as IUGR twin’s cord flow isn’t compromised...

    Tell me I’m not “giving up” or a failure. Feeding 4 day old twins

    @igbokwe Agree with you have to do what’s best for you. I found I was able to nurse successfully once my boys were full term. It took 2 weeks of triple feeding them individually (nurse, bottle, pump) to work on their latch and make sure they were transferring enough milk. If you’re not working...

    Polling all twin/multiples parents - did you sleep train? Method? How long did it take?

    @maddyiscool I’m sure I’ll get downvoted into oblivion, but we didn’t sleep train. All of my friends who did sleep train have had to retrain multiple times usually after illness, regressions, travel, etc. so I think what you’re experiencing is pretty par for the course.

    Help: WFH while pregnant w/ 2

    @lishanaidoo That's why the tray is clutch. I didn't really have much on it besides my laptop and I kept my phone to the side of the tub. I would just run the hot water every so often. It was more warm than hot, like a pool.

    Insurance question

    @riviere Honestly, I would wait until after you deliver if you can. This sounds really complicated and I would worry about doing a long cross country drive at 28 weeks as well as being able to find reasonable insurance and care in time for delivery. Can some of your family come to you towards...

    Breastfeeding/bottle feeding twins?

    @drterrapin The hospital should have the medela symphony available for you to use, which is a hospital grade pump and has (in my experience) much better suction then a home pump which was important for me early on when establishing supply. I would bring a hands free pumping bra. I would also...
