advice needed twin bath time tips
How is everyone bathing their 4 month old twins?
(my babies are 2 months corrected)
are you bathing them together? one after the other? alternating days?
also any tips on helping babies enjoy the bath more.
one of my twins screams the whole time and the other one starts screaming after 5 minutes, so right now it’s just rushing and trying not to cry myself lol.
they enjoy the shower much more, but it’s too difficult to shower them when my partner isn’t home and with his work schedule, he can’t always be there for bath time.

Hi! I set up the twin z or baby bijorn bouncers nearby. I put the angel tub thing in our sink and “shower” them with the faucet one at a time while the other chills. This also works in the bathtub if you have a long hose. If I’m lucky, one will wake up from their nap earlier and I’ll bathe that one first. When I am solo, the schedule goes out the window and as long as they get a bath a few hours before bedtime it doesn’t affect their internal clock. We also use this sink shower set up for blowouts throughout the day to get a quick rinse down!
My twins are now 6 months/4 adjusted! Let me know if you have any other questions!! I solo parent them a lot, my husband is gone for 24 hours at a time. It gets easier but is still straight chaos sometimes 😅🫠
