Hi Mums :)
Please share with me your tips and tricks for Mum life with two under two? If all goes well with this pregnancy then my little boy will be 17 months when baby no.2 arrives. What do I need to buy in preparation? Double pram? & does anyone have any life hacks that could make general mum life tasks a little easier?
☺️

No advice but following as this may also end up being our situation! Good luck and congratulations! X

I had two under one (10 month gap because second was a premie) so not exactly the same but it was much easier that I expected. I did get the easy baby second rather than first though, so if your first was easy, buckle up. As they get older it helps so much that they are in the same phase and they play together all the time. Also, the first one was so much more adaptable to having a sibling than an older child would be.
Sling plus buggy until the seond baby gets too heavy for the sling, then double umbrella buggy I would say.
Work on the sleep of the first one now and gradually build activities with the other parent if there is one.

@dontmindthegap Thank you for your insight. :) My first baby is super easy and is a fab sleeper, so I am fully preparing myself not to be so lucky a second time! Haha.

@Mrsttcno1 thank you! & good luck to you too :)
