When you’re pregnant, you worry a lot about what you need. Pregnancy pillows, tummy support bands, maternity yoga pants, ect. You also worry a lot about what the babies will need… Diapers, toys, whatever Hilary Duff tells you to buy, ect. The one person who doesn’t get a lot of thought during this time is you after you have the baby. Or in your case, babies. Believe me, the twin mom version of you is screaming to be remembered right now. Take some of that glorious free time of yours and spend it on making sure future you has everything she needs to not only be a great mom, but a sane, organized, money saving queen. She doesn’t know it yet, but here are a few things that will definitely help her out later on down the road:
A watch
An apple watch is totally fine but keep in mind that the babies will find it fascinating and might even turn a workout on while you aren’t paying attention.
A simple but cute notebook
It’s not class, but you will be taking notes. Here’s a good one you can add to your cart and cross off the list!
Lots of hair ties and/or clips
They will grab your hair. I like the thin ones but you do you.
A Kroger pick up or instacart account
Look, you may think you’ll have time to go to the store, but this is a very tricky thing. Taking two babies is not an option if you plan to fill up a cart. Make it easy on yourself and use a pick up service.
The Target Debit Card
This will come up a lot on this blog and is in no way sponsored. Saving 5% on every purchase just makes good sense.
A stanley cup
These are popular for a reason. Stay hydrated. Get it here – and don’t question the price. It’s worth it!
A twin mom community
I never thought to join a facebook group when I was pregnant, and I so wish that I had. There are so many to choose from. If you want some suggestions, let me know!
Crock pot
Fast meals will be your life.
WooZoo Fan
Our twins sleep so much better with a little airflow. This fan is quiet and moves all around the room.
Fuzzy non slip socks
Stay cozy. These are great for the hospital too! I’ve been living in these for longer than I’d like to admit.
