    Does anyone feel that twins is just a setup to fail?

    @balancedworld Do you have daycare as an option? Or a partner that helps out? I don’t feel this way at all, but my kids (27 months) are in daycare from 9-5 and my husband is with me every single morning and evening. 1-on-1 defense works pretty well for us. If one of us has to take a nap, the...

    @ncyks55 I meant that my babies were acting like monsters, not them. The owners are absolutely lovely people, by all accounts! It’s only a week, but we’ve been super happy with them. I just worried that my girls were being super difficult and they’re trying to find a way to get us to leave...

    @chasullivan Our girls are pretty average 14 month olds, as far as I know. They’re pulling up and taking small steps, but not walking. They crawl and butt scoot plenty. From what Ive observed they play really well with other babies. No special dietary needs either. 🤷‍♀️

    @matt97 They initially gave us a sibling discount, but said that it would not be included in the future rate due to the level of care the girls need.

    @tmp After some research (really more like cursory googling), it seems that the new prices are in line with rates in our area as well. I’m more shocked by how much they underestimated the price initially. The huge jump made it feel like they’re trying to push the girls out.

    @lola1993 It really does feel like a bait and switch. Fortunately, we’ve already paid for the first two months at the initially quoted rate, so we have time to think on it. My husband (who does drop-off) is thinking of asking one of the other dads he’s friendly with if he experienced something...

    …and they want to raise the price of daycare from $325 per girl per week to $480. Almost $1000 a week! Has this ever happened to you? What would you do in this situation? Are these prices reasonable? The daycare workers insist that the girls are a delight, but I can’t help but feel that my...
