How to Be Out with Twins Alone

Parenting is daunting when figuring out how to be out with twins alone. With a singleton, you can carry your fussy baby and focus your attention only on him. With twins, you’re plain outnumbered.

That was me. I couldn’t take my five-month-old twins to the beach the same way I did when their older brother was their age. I considered using a wagon before realizing they’d be too small to sit up on their own. I couldn’t push their double stroller through the sand. And I definitely couldn’t carry both of them in my arms.

Going out with twins alone was turning out tougher than I expected.

Still, I found ways to go out with twins alone, for both big and small outings, and you can do the same. Maybe you won’t go to the beach, but you can try these suggestions instead.

How to be out with twins alone:

One of the easiest ways to be out with twins is to stick to places you’re familiar with. Visit your local park you’d always taken your other kids to. Go to the mall by your house, or the library you usually borrow books from.
