Buying for Babies…Times Two

If you receive a twins baby shower invitation, do you immediately rush to buy something from the registry – times two?  I’m sure there are many things that parents of multiples can never have enough of – socks, onesies, bottles.  It should be no surprise that there are many resource and community sites geared towards parents of multiples.  The team at LookLoveSend has browsed these sites to find twin gift ideas that may not appear on those baby superstore registries, see below for some of our favorites.

Baby timer and tracker: The Itzbeen Pocket Nanny is an iParenting Media Award winning handheld device that helps new parents keep track of their baby’s eating, sleeping and changing schedule and provides reminders for medication doses, feedings, etc. One touch timers and alarms, built-in nightlight and easy carrying clip make this an easy gadget to use for sleep-deprived parents, babysitters and grandparents alike.  The Itzbeen Pocket Nanny is available as singles, but it’s the twin pack that we think is really a must-have for any tired mom woken by a crying twin at night.

Personalized picture frame: For that must-have newborn picture of the twins sleeping side by side in matching or coordinating outfits.  www.justmultiples.com has some great options for personalized twin frames, nursery décor and also twin-themed gift baskets.

Twin diaper bag: There are so many diaper bag choices available today – from backpacks to designer bags to diaper bags designed especially for dads.  But twin diaper bags are definitely worth consideration for their multiple-friendly features – being able to attach to double strollers, dividers for each baby’s section, and of course lots and lots of storage space and pockets.
