Umm...yes! They will save your sanity when you are solo parenting. Or when you want to eat dinner with your SO and the babies are starving. I use them in the RNPs all the time.

So I'll add my top 5 most used items (hard to narrow it down):
RnPs- They sleep/nap in them and they are easy to move around the house or take with us to visit family.
Bottle prop bibs- Often I make them bottles and put them in the RnPs and will eat my lunch on the couch with them in front of me. These bibs were the only reason I didn't starve for a while.
Gloworms- I don't know what it is about these damn things but they put the girls to sleep like nothing else. DD1 had one as a baby and DS had the seahorse version that I liked better, but the Gloworms were gifted to us this time.
And I will agree with baby wearing. I was wearing both even in the hospital. They are almost too heavy for the Moby, but my first woven should be here tomorrow!
And a stroller frame or something to hold the infant seats. I go solo a lot with all 4 kids and my baby trend snap n go is a life saver for getting the girls in and out of places like church.
Also they are really well made. I was impressed with the quality even after a million washes to get the milk dribbles out.
Don't worry - you've all convinced me! I will be purchasing them!
You could probably get away with just buying one and hold the other to feed, but I wear them a lot so now their bottle time is my "no kids on mommy" time. It's glorious.

Are the Gloworms the lullaby ones or are they just the light-up ones?
Almost 6 weeks in and these are my must haves: 1)RNP - one that plugs in AND plays music 2)Zutano booties - if you want to dress your newborn in something that isn't footed (got mine on Amazon) 3)A stroller that you can snap the baby carriers into. I have Graco Click-to-connect carriers and a Graco stroller that's compatible. It's heavy but I'd never be able to leave the house if I didn't have it.
Since this was bumped I want to add the summer infant 3Dtwo stroller. It's a double umbrella that for real folds as small as a single umbrella stroller. It is super easy to get around tight store aisles. Probably won't win any awards for jogging or really long walks, but as something to keep in my trunk right now (while babies are not walking but outgrew the infant seats) it is AMAZING.

Hi all! Just looking at all these suggestions. Super interested in these bottle prop bibs. How early did you all start using them?
I loved my bottle prop bibs. I want to say I started them at 4ish months. We used them every day!! One of the most used baby products I own. (I used it with the twinz pillow!)
Well shoot! I as totally hoping I would be able to use on maternity leave, but getting them anyway for the weekends and my one day off work during the week! Can't wait to check these little life savers out!

By any chance are you having girls? or care what pattern? They're navy blue/white/and a bit of pink. I'll mail you two for free if you want them, barely used!

Omigosh! B/G twins, but I don't mind what pattern they are! I would be happy to take them off your hands 😊
