Twin Baby Gear Registry

This bedside bassinet allows for your twins to be near you and next to each other, but secure in their own defined sleep spaces. The 360-degree swivel makes it easy to either move the bassinet closer to you (great for nighttime feeding or if you’re recovering from a C-section) or away from your bed so you can get out more easily. It also features soothing sounds and vibrations, a floor light and caddy, and comes with two sheets and two waterproof mattress pads.

This all-in-one solution is a great sleep option if you’re looking for a more affordable twin bassinet and a product that can go the distance. The nursery center includes two removable bassinets that convert into standalone rockers, a larger removable bassinet that fits in the top of the playard, a changing table and a parent organizer. Pop everything off as your babies get older and you’re left with a roomy playard that’s perfect for when you need to contain the chaos.

Price and design put this crib at the top of our twin registry wishlist. Although it’s not the least expensive crib option, it won’t break the bank and eventually convert into a toddler bed, saving you money down the line. We also love the built-in storage drawer underneath, perfect for all the extra blankets, bedding and more that you’ll need for two babies.

You’ll need a minimum of four crib sheets for twins—and that can add up. Target’s Cloud Island sheets come in lots of fun, modern designs, wash well and are under $10 each.

A swaddled baby is often a calmer, more content baby, but when you’ve got two baby burritos you need something that gets the job done quickly. The Swaddle UP comes on (and off) in seconds with one quick zip. It also lets babies sleep with their arms up so they can still self-soothe with their hands if needed.

This nursery item is worth the splurge for twin parents as you’ll be spending more time changing diapers than the average parent. The Wipe Clean Changing pad has a non-skid base and can be used on any hard, sturdy surface, eliminating the need for a changing table. Best of all, it wipes completely clean so you won’t need to deal with buying (or washing) covers or pads.

You’ve got enough on your mind as a new parent of twins, and the last thing you need is a complicated monitor that takes hours to figure out. Enter Motorola’s PIP. It’s super easy to set up (truly, we’ve tried) and features an HD camera that you can control either via the parent unit or your smartphone through an app. Done and done.

We always recommend adding a sound machine to any baby registry, but it’s especially useful for twins who may be more likely to wake each other up at night if they’re sharing a room. (White noise can also come in handy if you’re trying any sort of sleep training.) This one pulls triple-duty as a sound machine, night light and time-to-rise clock for the toddler years, and it can all be controlled via your smartphone. There’s even a battery backup option that runs for eight hours in case you lose power.

If you have the room in your nursery, a glider is worth the splurge and an item you’ll use with your twins for years. Standard models don’t usually accommodate two babies and an adult, but this one does. It’s just the right size for tandem nursing and bedtime routines.

Twins = more clothes, more diapers, and more stuff to organize. Keep everything in its place with these drawer dividers that are just right for organizing tiny clothing and lots more.

Twins are often born early and weigh less than singletons. You’ll want to make sure you choose a car seat that accommodates smaller babies, and the KeyFit 35 is a good twin registry pick. It’s extremely easy to install and works for babies four pounds and up. It’s consistently one of our top rated infant car seats, and it’s also compatible with lots of the best strollers, so it’s easy to make your own travel system.

There are a few different options when it comes to twins + strollers, but one of the simplest (and most affordable) is this universal stroller frame. It’s lightweight, easy to maneuver and fits any infant car seat, making it easy to transfer your babies from the car right to the stroller without disturbing them.

Finding a double stroller that can accomodate twins is tricky. If you don’t need the double car seat option, this stroller from Baby Jogger is our favorite pick. You can add on two prams (sold separately) that turn each seat into a bassinet until your little ones are big enough to sit in the stroller seats. It’s pricey, but more affordable than many other twin-friendly strollers with a similar design, and the City Mini GT2 Double is a solid choice with great suspension and maneuverability and an easy fold. (For a less expensive option, check out Baby Jogger’s City Tour 2 Double Stroller, which also accommodates two side-by-side bassinets.)

If you prefer a tandem (front-to-back) option, Mockingbird’s Single-to-Double 2.0 is a good choice for multiples. Although it can’t accommodate two bassinets, it can do two car seats or two infant seats. Both seats are reversible and there are other useful features like a one-hand fold, a spill-proof extendable canopy and never-flat wheels.

A baby carrier that is comfortable, can accommodate newborns and most of all is easy to use is important for all new parents, but especially those of twins. The Weego is specially designed for twins from birth and is easy to put on without any help.

You’ll also want to add a more structured carrier to your twin registry for when your babies are a bit older. The TwinGo is our favorite. It can be used as a double carrier or converted into two single-child carriers so two people can carry one baby each if desired. Accessories allow the carrier to be used from early infancy through the toddler years, so you’ll get a lot of life out of it.

There are a few things we think are worth doubling up on for a twin registry, and this bouncer seat is one of them. These seats are a comfy, safe spot for your twins to relax while you’re getting things done or just need a break. The seats have a small footprint, so they won’t overwhelm your space, and are affordable enough so you can buy one for each baby.

A swing is also helpful to have on-hand in case one (or both) of your babies prefers constant movement—but we think adding one to your registry, not two, is more than sufficient. We like this simple, compact model with six different sway speeds, vibration and sound options.

Parents of twins have dubbed this a “miracle pillow.” It has multiple uses and is great for tandem nursing or dual bottle feeding. It also works for side-by-side propping and tummy time. (For another option, check out the My Brest Friend Twin Nursing Pillow.)

Twin parents are also often pumping parents. This hands-free bra is a must-have if you plan on pumping for your babies. It can be worn on its own or slipped right over your nursing bra and holds your pump and bottles securely in place so you can keep your hands free. (If you do end up pumping frequently, you may also want to check out a wearable breast pump like the Willow or Elvie.)

Babies can be especially picky about what pacifier they like best. Since you’ll be juggling twins, you’ll want a few options on hand—and this pacifier box is a great option. It features seven of the most popular pacifiers among Babylist parents (and babies!) and is the perfect solution for test driving different pacis before you commit.

This unique table isn’t a must-have for everyone, but so many twin parents swear by it that we wanted to include it on our list. It’s designed for bottle feeding two babies at the same time and is sure to make your life a whole lot easier if that’s the feeding choice you make for your twins.

Like a Keurig for baby bottles, the Formula Pro is one of those products that you may think seems a bit over the top until you’ve tried it. (Or until you’ve had two hungry, screaming babies living in your house for a while.) Instantly preparing warm formula buttons with the push of a button, you’ll soon wonder how you ever lived without it. It’s a must-have if you plan on using formula with your twins.

Every bit of time saved with twins helps. Steam cleaning nipples and bottle parts in just a few minutes is not only a time saver, it also doesn’t require your dishwasher to be full.

Feeding twins is messy! Stock up on XL burp cloths like these to minimize the spit-up and keep your babies (and you) as clean as possible.

Double the babies means you’ll be need more while you’re out and about. This diaper bag is a supersized version of Skip Hop’s popular Duo Signature bag and has a ton of space for everything you’ll need for a day out with your twins.

If your sink is large enough for two babies, this insert is a great option for twin bathtime. It’s soft and supportive and can be wrung out and hung to dry.

A humidifier helps keep babies more comfortable and breathing easier when they’re not feeling well. Much like you, twin parents, this one is a multitasker. It’s a cool-mist humidifier, an aromatherapy diffuser and a nightlight all in one.

You can’t beat the basics when it comes to clothing for twins. These organic cotton bodysuits are easy to mix and match and come ten to a pack.

Footed PJs can be worn for more than just sleep—they’re great for daytime outfits, too. These are organic, super soft and easy to get on and off thanks to the zipper.

A baby gown makes the first few months of diaper changes a lot easier, which is important when you’re dealing with twins since you’ll be doing double the work. They’re great for bedtime too.

We recommend buying only one activity gym for your twins, so make it a great one. The Play Gym features five different play zones and is large enough to easily entertain two babies at one time. It also turns into a fort for the toddler years so it will last you for a while.

It’s absolutely essential to have gear that serves many functions. This activity center converts to a play station for cruisers and eventually a toddler table.

Large enough for two babies and cute enough for your IG feed, this milestone blanket is a fun twin registry addition.

These soft animals make the perfect snuggly companion. We recommend getting two different animals for your twins (we love this sloth, but the narwhal and alpaca are pretty adorable too) so each baby has a special lovey all their own.

This oversized foam mat is large enough to contain two active babies. When it’s not in use, it rolls up so it can be quickly tucked out of sight.

Don’t forget, you’re going to need a spot to store all your twins’ toys! This cotton and Jute bin is the perfect solution to tame the (many) twin toys you’re about to receive.
