Twin mom skills 💪🏼 wait for the end though 🤪 for reference they just turned two months old and are about 9lbs each. I also did this when they were younger and smaller but would get more of my hand under their head/neck for support. They have better head control now and are a tad heavier so try center my hand more on the mid back now. Wonder how long I'll be able to do this with both of them as they grow 🥹 #twins #twinmom #twinmama #momhack #momlife #twingirls #newborn #newbornbabies
Getting out of the house with 2 month old twins is hard but staying home all day with a 3 year old is harder 😅 I used to feel stressed or on a timeline when I took the littles out solo because I was anxious about how I could feed them both at the same time and felt guilty having them in the car seats or laying down to long. My @Weego changed that for me. I can confidently feed both of them at the same time while still being mobile around the park then after they can get a vertical snooze and contact nap in while I have free hands to push sis on the swings and spot her climbing IYKYK. You don't NEED all the extra things to successfully twin mom but I sure am thankful for all gadgets that help make it possible to feel confident doing it on the go! #twinmom #twinmama #babywearing #twincarrier #twinmusthaves #3under4 #weego #momlife #momhack #sahm #sahmlife
I've tried a lot of different ways and set ups for feeding our twins at the same time and so far, at 7 weeks old, this is my favorite set up for at night. 2 snuggle me loungers proped up on an angle by pillows gets them in a little more vertical position for the feed AND it's a great spot to hang out when they are done to let the belly settle and get some fan staring time in ♥️ hope this helps any other solo nighttime mamas, drop your questions or what else you'd love to see in the comments! #twins #twinmama #twinmom #feedingtwins #pumping #pumpingmom #exclusivelypumping #newborn #newbornbaby #soloparenting
The hours between 5-8pm feel like a marathon 😅😅 This is what's working for us this week but honestly, consistency is not our friend. My husbands work schedule is constantly changing so our routine is flexible around when I have help. In a couple days we will be shift to him being gone for overnights so he will be home for bedtime I'm solo for all the night feeds and till afternoon while he sleeps😅 #bedtime #bedtimeroutine #twinmom #twinmama #3under4 #momlife
Bath time with twin newborns and a 3.5yo is 😅😅 but I feel like we finally have a good set up and system that makes it feel more doable! My twins HATED the bath for the first month of life but ever since we got this twin bath where they face forward towards me they have been really enjoying it and it's a less stressful experience for eveyone!

I'm so proud of the freezer stash I have built for our twins these first two months however one of my biggest fears is losing it to a power outage! With tornado season on the way for the Mid West we decided to get the Anker Solix F3800 Plus for peace of mind and back up power in the event of an outage. This power station can keep our freezer and other every day family necessities running with ease! #ankersolix #ankersolixf3800plus #backuppower #Ankerpartner #newmom #twinmom #breastfeeding #freezerstash #breastmilkstorage #pumping #pumpingmom #pumpingjourney #poweroutage #tornadoprep #tornadoseason
The girls have been big spitters since day one. We've tried everything. Yes we pace feed. Yes slow flow nipples. Yes we burp them. Let them rest upright after feeds. It doesn't matter what we do, some of it is coming back up. We're currently trying to up the girls feeds from 4oz to 5oz because we're a little behind for their age and the spit up is really flowing as a result. There isn't to much concern because they are gaining weight just fine and aren't showing signs of pain or an allergy. They are in good hands, dads a pediatric ER physician and auntie is a NICU feeding therapist in addition to their own regular pediatrician visits. But just in case you're wondering... this is what over an OZ of spit up looks like on the floor. What's worse than being covered in baby puke all the time and having to clean your floors 24/7... the fact that it's pumped breastmilk 😭😭😭 brb gotta go cry over my spilled milk!!!! #reflux #babyreflux #spitup #breastfeeding #breastmilk #pumping #pumpingmom #pumpingmama #pumpingjourney #
Our journey to twins + 1 wasn't easy. It was filled with emotion and doubts but ultimately we ended up conceiving the family of our dreams without any medical intervention despite being told that would be nearly impossible. I credit a huge piece of that to diligent and accurate cycle tracking with Inito. You can get Inito today for just $89 using my code "TANNER89" or the link in my bio ♥️ @Inito Fertility #initopartner #fertility #fertilityjourney #infertility #cycletracking #ttc #ttcjourney #ovulation #ovulationtracking
The @Baby K’tan wrap is currently my favorite soft carrier to use with the twins. It's the easiest to put on by far in my opinion! I had this carrier with my first daughter and used it all the time, especially when traveling, because it's quick and easy to put on yet also compact enough to pack in a carry on no problem. This is a size medium and with just one baby was a loser fit and we used it up until around 1 year. With two babies (9.5lbs each currently) it's a tighter, higher fit and I'll likely size up to a large for more room when they grow ♥️ #babywearing #tandembabywearing #twins #babycarrier #twinbabycarrier #twinmama #twinmom #momlife #registrymusthaves #babyregistry

Just a few baby items that made our second month with the twinnies a little more manageable! I made this same video for month one with our twins and everything in that video we still use everyday headed into month 3 (other than the preemie swaddles) #twins #twinmom #twinmama #twinmomlife #momlife #babygear #babyregistry #babymusthaves #2monthsold #2months

Thankful to be a pumping and breastfeeding mom! The journey to breastfeeding wasn't smooth for us. In addition to all the reasons why in the video, our breastfeeding journey started with pumping right from the hospital. They were concerned the girlies weren't getting enough because they would only feed for a few minutes at a time before falling asleep or unlatching. They had me start pumping so we could closely monitor their intake and we continued this at home to monitor their weight gain. We kept working on breastfeeding though with solo sessions and just this week had our first successful tandem feed! ♥️ #breastfeeding #breastfeedingjourney #tandemfeeding #pumpingmom #pumpingmama #twinmom #twinmama #combofeeding
I think since before they were born the thing that gave me the most anxiety was knowing one day I would be juggling bedtime with two newborns and a 3.5yo solo 🫠🤪 just this week had two days of back to back solo bedtimes and while everyone did eventually all sleep(ish- newborn life) in their own beds, there was def some tears and trial and error along the way. Still don't feel like we have our routine nailed down so open to any advice. What do you do with your babies to keep them settled and safe while you do bedtime with older children??? 😅😅 #soloparenting #bedtime #bedtimeroutine #twins #twinmama #twinmom #3under4 #newborntwins #momlife #solomom
