Having Twins - General Advice

[Cybyassociation]

Hey Fanatics,

The wife and I are expecting twins in late November/early December. Wanted to start on a thread for any other parents of twins (or parents with multiple kids) on general advice/things to do. A few of the questions my wife and I have:

What kind of stroller do you use?
What kind of bassinet did you buy?
How long did they sleep in your room (if at all)?
Did you purchase 1 or 2 cribs?
What kind of pack and play did you buy?
Should I buy a minivan? Currently, we have a 2018 Ford Fusion and 2008 Jeep Liberty so feels like one of us needs to upgrade.

We live near Ames so it's easy for us to get to Ames or Des Moines to purchase things if you recommend a certain place in Central Iowa.

We're excited to bring 2 new Cyclones into the world, but I'm terrified as well.

Thanks in advance.

I'll let you know as I go. Ours are making their arrival August 30. These will be #2 & 3 for us as we have a 2 year old at home right now.

Congratulations! You will most certainly be busy - good luck with everything and would appreciate any tips.

I know that you are expecting twins, but thought you might enjoy this story!!

"You don't ever see triplets being conceived naturally, let alone going 34 weeks without knowing. So, everyone's like I can't believe it. We're still in shock, trust me,” said Dannette Giltz. “I go to the doctor's thinking I'll have surgery for kidney stones and end up going into labor with a c-section that night. It's crazy.”
