Did you twins sleep together in the early weeks please? Did you put them side by side or heads at either end of the cot? Did they wear sleeping bags? Thank you

Heads together until they were too big then too and tail.

Yes to sleeping bags.

For feeds you can easily recognize the cry, and know who’s hungry and they get used to you feeling their heads to see which is which is the dark

Yes they slept together for several months. Heads together and in their own sleeping bags. If one cried, the other would not wake.

Yes they slept together in the first few months with their heads together.

Yes, side by side for 18 months. Had to use sleeping bags as they were both wrigglers. When they went into separate beds they'd creep into each other's bed - may as well have had one bed till they were 4.

Same. Mine were swaddled side by side even in the little hospital cot and then went into sleeping bags in a Chicco next to me or a big cot we had in the kitchen for their day time naps. From very early on they would creep or wiggle to be next to each other. So sweet.

Yes, side by side. I didn't know about sleeping bags for a couple of months, when I found out about them they were a godsend.
