    Does anyone still use this table for 2 or twin z after the first 6 months??

    @ktb We stopped with the table for 2 around 8 months adjusted, or maybe it was earlier? The twins Z I have in a closet in their room, my thinking is that if they get sick or something it could somehow be useful, especially if one of us parents is traveling for work at the time.

    I’m an idiot and MatLeave in this country sucks

    @jedidiahanointing Just want to plant this seed anywhere it might bear fruit: parental leave policies should be organized around the number of babies born. Twins and multiples require more physical recovery for the mom and place more demands of sleep and care upon all supporting adults. If you...

    SIUGR baby

    @eb3 What kind of twins do you have? Mine were di/di and identical; each had a different cord situation: Baby A had a v-cord insertion and Baby B had one in and one out, instead of two in and one out. Baby B was under 10% every time they measured (20 weeks onwards). I had 4+ appointments per...

    Universal Childcare Call to Arms!

    @samleebr423 A full time nanny for our twins (3.5 months adjusted) is the same cost as our mortgage! And so we have a part time nanny, and I work fewer hours. I'm not sure how we will swing 2X preschool when the time comes-- where we live a full time nanny is comparable in cost to putting our...
