One hill I’ll die on as a new twin mom: my babies do not need to be on the same schedule.
All throughout my pregnancy, one of the biggest pieces of unsolicited advice I received was how important it was to “keep the twins on the same schedule.”
And I understand why people say it. But I’ve never been a schedule mom.
If my baby is asleep, I let them sleep.
If they cry, I feed them.
If they need comfort, I hold them.
It’s always been that simple for me.
And while having two babies at the same time is absolutely a lot, not forcing the same schedule has given me something really beautiful — intentional one-on-one time.
If one baby is asleep, the awake baby gets uninterrupted attention. No pressure. No dividing myself in half.
And honestly, that feels like one of the greatest gifts I can give my twins … and myself. 🤍
