Sharing what’s in my diaper bag as a new mom of 3-month old twins. There’s never been a better time to put my chronic overpacking skills to good use. Knowing I have absolutely everything I could possibly need with me has made leaving the house and enjoying our new normal way less stressful…
Sharing a roundup of our favorite, everyday essentials that have made living with twin newborns as manageable as it can be. From feeding to changing & everything in-between…
I’m so excited to be sharing the girls’ shared nursery! This was a small labor of love to finish prior to their arrival, especially considering how difficult it was for me to get around & how I was feeling the months leading up to delivery. But thanks to Thomas + his rapid-assembly skills, my sister & my mom, we got it done well in time.
As someone in the pure thick of it, my memory of this time hasn’t become a blur yet. So if you’re someone expecting, know someone expecting soon, or someone currently in the trenches of sleep deprivation & desperate for some loose suggestions on how to survive this time without losing your entire mind – hopefully this post will provide some reassuring guidance on how to survive the first month with a newborn.
If you’ve followed me for the last 9+ months, then you know how little I’ve been present online. Of course, finding out we were pregnant was the highlight of our 2022 year but it didn’t come as wonderful as I hoped it would be. I had the presumption that by the second trimester I would get all the things pregnancy “promises” an expecting mother – the glow, the energy, the excitement. Instead, I got Perinatal Depression.
