Hey just checked my email!!
So many of you asked about the mattresses I wrote about a bit ago. (Post about mattresses…click here) The company is Lifekind and they are having a March madness 60% off sale, online only! You just punch in the coupon code: MADNESS. This is an amazing company. I have loved their products. The bedding is amazing as well. The wool cover for the crib mattress is incredible. Renn pulled off her diaper while sleeping and peed all over the bed…YEAH! I thought the mattress would be ruined. The wool held it all and didn’t let it leak through!!! So if you get a mattress invest in the wool pad to protect it….
Thought I’d pass this along….LIFEKIND COUPON….happy shopping:)
Getting 2 crib size one's for my twins due in May. Besides the mattress and wool cover should I get anything else in my Lifekind order?
Any other twin must haves I need to get or tips? You'd know!

PS-New reader, love your blog, turned me on to so many products. Already bought the Learning Tower you posted about for my daughter. She loves getting to help me out more. So thank you
Thank You SOOOO much! Have been wanting to buy one ever since I read your first post but was a bit expensive for me.
Oh how exciting! Boys girls or both?
I got the cotton sheets. I got the toddler pillow from a different company..will update when I get home and see the brand. But you won't need those for sometime. I got a bath filter dechlorinator which dangles from the spout and is good too. Can't truly tell how much it works though…never actually tested the filtered bath water, maybe I should.
In regards to products. I have started working on a "need list" "want list" and definitely AVOID list" of recommendations and reviews that hopefully I will get up here soon. Did just see a cool twin baby product that I wish I'd had when mine were babies: buytablefortwo.com. isn't that cute!?
Please feel free to ask me any questions! I love talking twins and mommydom:)
I know! I waited for a sale as well a while back, then bought one crib and 2 fulls at the same time. Still didn't get one for myself though. Maybe I should take advantage of the sale I'm telling you about! haha
ps- you asked in another comment what company makes the triple stroller. It is a guy named Roger Berg. He makes this same stroller for 1-6 kids! It is awesome! Doesn't fold but is very easy to push! His number is (503)649-7922. He is very helpful. Tell him I sent ya:)
My friend is having twin boys, i will most definatly recommend this to her! Thank you for putting this out there, and the awareness! <3
Oh my goodness!!! That feeding chair is amazing!!! Where was that when I was taking care of twins!?! My friends and I used Podee bottle (www.podee.com) which allows you to burp one baby as needed without having to stop the other from eating. It worked ok, but this table for 2 feeding chair is awesome!!! My favorite part is the arm rests in between the babies legs. Way better then sticking 2 bouncy seats next to each other!
-wow that was a lot of exclamation points for one comment (!)
I love this blog ! I wish I had read your warning about the Stroll – Air before I bought that piece of crap stroller for my child. I had the same exact prob., I too was screwed by them! So if you say a company is good I trust you 🙂
I wish I had read "Sleep Safe in a Toxic World" before I had had kids! Raimy has asthma symptoms that stopped once I made a few changes in our home and diet. This being one of them:)
I know! They have come out with so much amazing twins stuff since my twins were babies! Dang!
Thank you! Their customer service was horrible!!! You can have an amazing product but if you don't stand behind it why should we not warn people to save themselves from a future waste of money. I heard multiple people have problems with Stroll-Air. People wrote me that they had googled Stroll-Air and found my post then chose not to buy. Look at me saving the world one mommy at a time!! HAhahaha! Wish you had seen it sooner:(
Why did you tell us about this book?! Now I can't sleep!! Glad I caught the sale, couldn't spend that much otherwise, couldn't sleep again otherwise. Let's just say, glad i don't have kids, glad i don't have to buy a bunch of these things lol
I know I know I know!! Wish I hadn't read it either!! Gross right! I actually am still sleeping on a chemical bomb mattress… Figured I'm already screwed! Hahaha Kidding..got the kids figured out…saving up for ours. They last forever so want to get the nice one:)
Heads up though… These mattresses are HEAVY!! Be ready to have 4 people when they deliver, to get this thing to your room and on the frame. I did the crib mattress alone though.
