      You're doing a wonderful job. I was a nanny for neonate triplets and know what it's like to feed one at a time the moment they begin to stir.
      Men's mess is enough to drive me crazy.

    I cannot even imagine two at one time. Double duty. The babies are so adorable. You both are doing good taking care of your babies. So precious.

    Ell, I was on my own with my pair (it was 40+ years ago) but I used to swear blind by bouncy chairs. You can feed them both at once. As for winding, one over your legs and one over your shoulder to burp both at once. You are doing great!

    My daughter had twins @ 36 weeks just days ago. She is in the beginning of the journey and tired. Your videos help me to understand where she is and what she needs. Thank you. You are both doing an amazing job with your boys.

    My mum had twin sisters on her own, she would feed one, then wake the other and get them into a routine of one is fed first and then the other. It’s hard but it does work.
    You’re doing amazing on your own!💗

    The boys are getting so big. They have grown so much. I love how Noah have a conversation with Dad...his little smile is priceless. Mom, enjoy the moments whenever Ari sleeps while Noah is awake. Perhaps he's giving you a break...look at it as a blessing while one sleeps and the other eats. They're absolutely adorable and growing fast. Mom and Dad you are doing a great job...Thanks for sharing your Light with us 🙏

    This brings back so many memories. The colic/reflux days with twins are hell but it doesn’t last long and will soon be a distant memory. I would love to tell you it gets easier but there are just different challenges my two are 20 months now and running circles around me everyday. Literally.

  • @bobbysmith855
    @bobbysmith855 Рік тому +1

    One thing you could do which helps, is to not change their nappies at the 5.30am feed. Just get them down for another hour or 2. When they are sleeping through the night you wont change their bums...they'll be fine, and will help them go back off to sleep if you dont wake them so much. God bless you, youre both doing brilliantly!

    When my twins were babies, we put the bottles in the dishwasher. Yes it’s probably not recommended but it saved much needed time, and they’re going in the steriliser after so should be fine. When you’re on your own try some white noise (app) for the baby waiting to feed, was a life saver for me when they are too little to master feeding both x

    I would definitely love to see how you do the evening shift! I think you're doing a fantastic job with the babies on your own! I agree with you both on dropping the one feed, you just need to gauge what the boys want and if you noticed they are not wanting to feed at half past 5 then skip it, they will definitely let you know when they decide their hungry! Loved the video as always! Hugs from CA

    My son is a couple of weeks shy of turning 3 and he woke up every single hour of every single night for 2 of those 3 years. And although I was married, it was like being a single parent within the relationship, so I handled having the baby all day and night alone. This last year it has been just my son and I as we left the UK back to my home country, but my son has started sleeping better -due to age I suppose, though he still wakes up twice a night or so. At first I wasn't worried too much about being awake all night as I was diagnosed with severe insomnia when I was younger, but during the night when I couldn't sleep, I at least rested. Now with a child, resting is not possible, so I'm just counting down the days until he is able to manage better on his own with age (at the same time, not wanting to miss his being a little one). Well done on working together as a supportive team and handling being twin parents! The time really does go fast and you'll miss their newborn selves where they crunch up their little legs and give the best snuggles. You're doing a great job!
