My kids were deprived! Those are way fancy, all we had was plain white.
Coffee anyone ?

Couldn't tell you, I don't have experience with twins. You might ask the midwife/pediatrician.
Pretty sure it was on the paperwork the hospital gave me when we were discharged that they were supposed to have own bare space to sleep in. Same reasoning as not having stuff in the crib, so they won't suffocate. You are the parent though, so you are going to have to decide how you are going to do things.

That's true. I suppose we will just wait and see. It's stressful waiting let me tell you.

Okay my two cents on diapers i need to catch up on thread but dont know if phone will let me. Alvababy are my favorite cloth diapers. The fit from newborn to three year olds. I get the charcoal bamboo liners as they are better absorbent then the white ones. Two-three of them can handle a three year old at bed time with no leaks. I havent had issues with staining even from newborn poop. I will say this you do need to strip the diapers every once in a while(wash with a cup of vinegar) to remove the ammonia i tend to every other wash. Also if you do get stains dry in direct sunlight can actually get rid of it. I wouldnt let them sit either. Most people i know who had enough for several days allowed the dirty diapers to sit for a day or more and their child had more rash issues. I was mine daily might ruin the elastic quicker but i dont care as much on that. I would also look into a premie fit diaper since your having twins as most twins are generally on the smaller side and not the typical 7lb babies most newborn things fit. Inhishand birthing supply company they have a herbal liquid called after birth that is amazing for the contraction of the uterus after wards that works so good and fast and is safe to take. They also have some other bath herbal mixtures that can help prevent infection of the uterus after giving birth since you will be having a water birth.

Maybe that is in reference to people who want the baby in bed with them?
Breathe!
Get into the Lotus position and Om, Om, Om. Maybe you can skip the position since it might be hard for you to get into.
You still have a ways to go, don't stress out
Does your midwife know about the extra kid? Do you have to pay extra for two?

midwife is just stressing out more. I feel like I’m running out of time too quickly. 146 days hopefully. I’ve tried meditating. It’s hard when you are stressed out. Oof.

Personally I would put both babies in the same co-sleeper arrangement.
If the are super wiggly, arm flinging etc. Just swaddle them both. A well swaddled baby can't poke anyone or anything. Super safe.

That's probably what will end up happening.
