Twin Baby Hurt on Fireplace Hearth

We had to buy the twin baby set corner and edge guards today because the twin sister is pulling herself up onto the side table in the playroom, and the twin baby boy just pulled himself up for the first time today.

I put the corner and edge guards on the table and on the wall corners where they stick out by the closet.

I know these corner and edge guards won’t keep the fraternal twins from getting hurt, but they will at least protect the twin baby set from these corners and edges.

In this picture, the twin baby set is sitting on the fireplace. I know those corner and edge guards would help here too, but the fraternal twins aren’t really in the family room, unless they’re in the walker - so they can’t get to the fireplace edges yet.

I saw on Amazon that fireplace edge guards are also available, but for the number of feet in each package type, the corner and edge guards are actually more economical. I do think the fireplace edge guards may actually be bulkier, to cover more, so they may be better for the fireplace. I guess we’ll deal with that when the twin baby set outgrow their walkers.

Twin Stroller

My fraternal twins have really outgrown their Double Snap N Go by Baby Trend Swann. This twin stroller has been the absolute best since it weighs half as much as the DuoGlider by Graco and it fits into a much smaller space.

The twin stroller is actually just an twin twin infant carseat carrier frame, not an actual stroller, since it requires the carseat carrier to hold the twin baby set.

The twin stroller frame has been a life saver for my twin boy and twin girl twin baby set, but once they reach about 22 pounds, they are ready to move into the DuoGlider by Graco which is also a great twin stroller. The DuoGlider allows you to just set the infant carseat carriers into the stroller or use the stroller seats once the twin baby set can sit up.

If you get this twin stroller, be aware that only ONE infant carseat carrier comes with it, if you buy the DuoGlider by Graco TRAVEL SYSTEM, and it is less expensive for a twin twin family to purchase.

Twin Boy Hurting Twin Girl for Pacifier Binky

This week the fraternal twins turned 10 months old and had their first Thanksgiving. I've noticed that the twin boy is asserting his strength a bit more: he takes his twin sister 's binky (pacifier) quite often, even when he has a binky (pacifier) in his own twin twin mouth.

I'm not so concerned about the twin boy taking the twin girl 's binky, but what about when he starts hitting or scratching his twin sister ? Actually, he scratches now, not on purpose, but he likes to grab things, especially the twin girl 's blinking eyes.

How can I stop this?

Twin Baby in Prison with Baby Gate

The fraternal twins are now able to crawl. The twin girl has been doing it for about three weeks, and the twin boy just started. The twin baby set can also pull themselves up onto their knees.

The fraternal twins ‘ dad had to install a wall-mount baby gate on the playroom door and at the top of the stairs, for obvious reasons, but don’t they look pitiful in their little twin twin prison?

This wall-mount baby gate is the safest for twin baby set because it is not a pressure-type of gate, which means it won't collapse or fall when twin twin babies shake it or stand on it.

If you click this link wall-mount baby gate you can get one for $55, which is $10 less than we paid at the local BRU store.

Twin Girl Standing Alone with Baby Walker

This week the twin girl started standing by herself. Her twin boy brother still cannot pull himself up. The twin girl can stand for about one minute without holding on to anything. She's 9.5 months old, and with the twin pregnancy ending at 35 weeks, the twin girl is right on track, even though she could easily be a bit behind.

The twin girl has the baby walker. Someone told me they were outlawed and not available, but that's just not true. The fraternal twins have two different brands, so that we could switch them when they got bored. The twin girl has the Safety 1st walker and the twin boy has the stationary exercauser. I wonder if this has helped the twin girl learn to stand alone sooner than the twin boy.
