    What’s everyone’s twins going for Halloween?

    @maryatexaschristian Minions. I’m Kevin, one is Stuart, and one is Bob lol. My husband is Gru. He has a scarf he loves, but I’ve been telling him he looks like Gru, so we went with it!

    I’m tired

    @eaglehaze Yes. Sometimes when I go grocery shopping alone, I fantasize about just continuing to drive down the interstate all the way to California and disappearing from this life. Then I remember my cute babies and my husband and feel bad that I even thought it. Doesn’t stop me from doing it...

    SAHP Burned out and making mistake after mistake

    @ajewelinhiscrown It’s ok… I think you’re just tired. I tend to make more mistakes when I’m tired/haven’t slept or need a long break (like a day or even a few hours for myself). Is it possible for you to get a break?

    Cleaning

    @kamleshchristi I just didn’t do deep cleans very often. Last time I cleaned the bathroom was because one of them pooped in the tub so I scrubbed it and since I was already in there I just did the toilet and sink too. I’m basically always cleaning 😩 even if it’s just wiping something down or...

    2 year old and 6 month old I’m getting really discouraged - vent

    @jlovespb You may be able to access discounted care. My old job had a dental van that would come out once a month and provide care. You did have to make an appointment usually but some of the care was free and procedures were at a big discount. Ask around!

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

    @frenchtoastjones I also cried and called my husband home. About to be 18 months. Yesterday and today were just awful days, but I’m glad I wasn’t the only one.

    1 crib vs 2

    @theophilac20 Separate mini cribs. We fit a big floor bed to share at 14 months and they love it!

    Jogging stroller: BOB, BabyJogger or Thule?

    @abctradelinks We have a baby jogger but it’s the city gt (older model). We love it. The suspension is insane, it drives super smooth, folds up very easily with pulling up, I’m 5’1 and can lift it into the back of our Honda accord easily. The girls are comfy in it, it reclines almost flat, and...

    Walk me through your laundry routine! I’ll start

    @ava1453 It’s honestly way more manageable! I used to have an in-unit washer/dryer at our old apartment and I would do this everyday. It takes 5-10 mins to hang up a few shirts. Now that I have to go to the laundromat, it takes me 3-4 hours a week to get through everything. I hate it.

    AITA for not wanting to go to restaurants with our 13 m.o. twins?

    @johnvladimir I wouldn’t say he’s an AH, just overwhelmed and probably embarrassed by the situation. I mean, he felt bad enough that he literally cleaned. Sometimes it’s time to go. This sounds like it was one of those times. I think it’s unfair of her to be upset when he’s having a freak out...

    Thrive Market

    @nicholassoap You still pay monthly, but there’s an option for “auto ship” where there’s a list of items you have sent to you monthly, so I think that’s what they mean by subscriptions.

    Weaning sadness

    @cassidyshay Thank you!! This transition is definitely tough. I feel like it was also a surprise, no one really talks about it!

    Weaning sadness

    @cassidyshay I stopped pumping 3 weeks ago and my hormones are still going crazy. I cry almost every day for whatever reason. I’m not sure how long it will last, but my babies are what’s getting me through it. They need me, so I try my best for them. Other than that, my husband has been my...

    Preeclampsia and 34 Week Di/Di Twin Boys

    @codymcg I have modi twins and developed preeclampsia at 35 weeks. I had been symptomatic prior but wasn’t technically in the range. My blood pressure usually is 100s/60s and was running 130-140s which is quite a significant increase for me but on paper still seems “safe.” I was also dizzy...

    Tips for cleanup after eating that isn’t a dog

    @faye58 The catchy!!!! They have a deal if you buy two (like $20 off I think). We have it on our ikea chairs and it’s awesome. We have a rug in the dining area and I was soooo tired of spot cleaning it. You still have to clean the catchy, but for me it’s much easier than the floor. It also...

    Sharing a crib

    @cam I’m just sharing my experience. Our bassinet worked for us and I bought it with the mesh, which I was comfortable with.

    Sharing a crib

    @smaxiner There’s ways of sleep sharing that are accepted and safe in other countries (I’m in US) such as both at each foot of the bed. We had a twin bassinet at first where they were separated by mesh and after that we had them each in mini cribs. For naps, I would sometimes put the twin z in...

    New SAHM depression

    @heremiah I totally get this as I also stay home because it was more affordable for me to do the childcare. We also only have one car. The loneliness and sadness was directly linked to getting out for me. I have made it a goal to get out with the babies at least every other day, and to get to...
