Baby Registry Product Picks for Multiples

Having a baby is an exciting time for new parents and finding out you’re having twins doubles that excitement. But, because it’s not quite as common, there tends to be a lot more questions.

From “do we need 2 of everything?” to “how am I going to afford 2+ babies?!” – you're not alone, which is why we've compiled some product picks to consider when building your Baby Registry for multiples!

Double the Essentials

The goal with doubling essentials is to minimize germs spread between babies. This includes bottles, pacifiers, snot suckers, etc. If this requires colour-coding with stickers or nail polish, do it.

Grabbing 1 of each colour of these 8 oz Bottle 2-Packs by Comotomo will help you easily distinguish between which bottle is for which little. We also love the Pacifier Combo's by BIBS that come in a variety of stylishly paired colours!
 

A Double Stroller

With so many strollers on the market, there are lots of decisions to be made here – which is why we've compiled all the stroller reviews you could ever need, including our Tandem vs. Side by Side Double Strollers tell all, and our Stroller Buying Guide. Remember to head into any Snuggle Bugz location and test drive any of your faves.

For multiples, we love the Snap Duo Trend Double and Indie Twin All-Terrain Double for their side-by-side seating position that allows your littles to keep each other company while they enjoy the ride.

Find more fantastic options in our Top Double Strollers of the year article.

Two Infant Seats

Since you’ll be carrying two Infant Seats with you on a daily basis instead of just one, we recommend the Nuna PIPA, the Nuna PIPA Lite, or the Nuna PIPA Lite LX infant seats.

Super safe and stylish – they are also the lightest on the market, with the Lite weighing in at under 5 pounds!

For our full review of the PIPA series, check out this article where we break down everything you need to know about the three models.

Two Sound Machines

If you’re planning to have your babies sleep in different areas of the house, a sound machine for each sleep space is recommended. A white noise machine will help drown out the noise of siblings and allow them to dream right through their womb-mates fussing!

Sleep Sacks

You’re going to have your hands full, and swaddling takes some getting used to. Save time and energy by purchasing a Woolino Ecolino or HALO SleepSack Swaddle and secure them with the pull of a zipper. A huge win for you and your babes when they feel cozy, safe and secure wrapped in their baby sleep bag!

If you're curious about baby sleep bags and sacks, we've covered all the details in our article Everything You Need to Know About Sleep Sacks.

Two Bouncers

There are a lot of items that you can manage having only one of with multiples, but a bouncer isn’t one of them.

You’re going to need a safe, dependable spot to put both babies down when you need to run to the washroom or unpack the groceries. Check out our Top Bouncers article for a breakdown of all our favourite picks. 

A Safe Play Space

As your newborns grow into mobile infants, it won’t be as easy to strap them into a bouncer and use the washroom. A safe spot to put your mobile babies takes a little bit more creativity.

This PlayView Enclosure by Skip Hop works as a room divider or freestanding “baby jail”. Toss a playmat underneath and some age-appropriate toys in this space and feel confident turning around to unload the dishwasher!

A Twin Feeding Pillow

Whether you’re breastfeeding or bottle feeding [#FedIsBest], a spot for both babies to eat comfortably is a necessity.

We love the Twin Pillow by My Brest Friend for its easy to wash, zip-off cover, and supportive comfort for two!

Space Saving High Chairs

Twin parents LOVE the lobster-style high chairs that clamp onto islands or counters. They don’t take up any floor space in your kitchen, and are easy to pack up and bring to the grandparents’ or on vacation. The lobster high chair by Phil & Teds is a top seller (learn more about this innovative chair in our in-depth review).

Note: These seats are not compatible with every island, table or countertop. Please refer to the specifications on the product listing before purchasing.

Feeling Excited?

We're so excited for you to welcome your new bundles of joy, and hope that this article helped you feel prepared for their arrival.
