pacapod changer pod

[claireinmodena]

Hello everybody

has anyone got just the changer pod from the pacapod range?

I'm expecting twins and don't really want to buy a whole changing bag, I quite like the idea of the pod, but wondering if I will have enough space for nappies and a change of clothes for two?

All the other small changing mats seem too small for twins imo

Any ideas anyone?

Thanks so much!!

As opposed to this kind of thing which looks a wee small for 2 babies:

Are you worried that the pod might not be able to hold all the things you will need for the twins?

If you are planning on bf don't forget that you won't have that much to carry, if you're planning on ff you will probably need a bigger bag, an even bigger one if you are planning on ff and using washable nappies [hsmile].

Haven't got twins so I'm not really much use. Is there a TAMBA group near to you where you could ask some experienced Mums, or could your local NCT put you in touch with some parents of twins in your area?

Is there a multiples section on MN where you could ask too claire?

HI Jilted and thanks for taking the time to answer, And yes I am worried it might not be enough but at the same time would like something that I can just put in my own bag rather than getting a proper changing bag.

I do not live in the uk, but in Italy, in a small place and there is not much in the way of twins associations and such, besides the pacapod range is not sold here so doubt anyone even knows of it.

There is a multiples sections but I thought I'd reach more people in here...

thanks for the suggestions anyway.

ps I do not know if I will be able to breastfeed exclusively, so that's a bit tricky to prepare for too.

and definitely WON'T be using washable nappies, I have 2 older kids as well and do not want to drive myself crazy with the added work of washing nappies (which I will NEVER use again either!!)

Sorry just assumed you'd be in the uk else I wouldn't have mentioned TAMBA or NCT. There might be information on the TAMBA website to help though.

Nobody would blame you for not using washables either, you'll have enough to deal with having 2 in nappies never mind 2 older ones .

Now its none of my business but if you are interested in bfing the twins there is some info here, an article, a book review and some more information here.

Congratulations and hope you get some answers to your original question soon [hsmile]
