(PIC) To go to the pool alone w/ a 2 year old and 9 month old?

Question

It'll just be me with my 2 year old (27lbs) and my 9 month old (23lbs). Would this float help or would it still be more of a headache to even try?

Answer

You should absolutely have one parent/person per child, the drowning risk is too high and a float would likely cause more headache because if the toddler gets excited and flips it over? 
I would never do the pool alone with two babies, it's so dangerous.

Answer

When I take 2 to the pool I babywear my 8 month old and my 2 year old must stay in his lifejacket floaties the entire time. Amazon makes a great mesh wrap for swimming.

Answer

This is sooo cute! The only thing I can see being an issue to work out would be the getting in and out part. Like who’s nearby to hold one baby while you load or unload the other baby.  Unless your 2 yr old is very well behaved and won’t run off while getting the 9 month out of the float. And vice versa.

Answer

I truly wouldn’t go alone. I’ll be in the same boat next summer with two under two, and I just can’t imagine taking both to the pool alone. It seems too risky and stressful.

Answer

I can’t see a two year old wanting to stay in the float for to long and once he doesn’t want to be in there anymore things will definitely get difficult I wouldn’t do it

Answer

Personally I wouldn't feel safe on my own with 2 that age but if your going to then absolutely individual floats/lifejackets on both children!

Answer

If it's not coast guard certified most pools wont even allow it in as its deemed "unsafe". 
On a personal note I wouldnt do more than 1 child at a time in a float
