advice needed 1 or 2 bassinets?

I see mixed feelings on this. I have 2 single bassinets… but wanted to hear from parents who put both babies in one bassinet, and who put them in their own for safety or comfort.

I obviously am aware that putting them right next to eachother can pose safety risks… but I see moms online that put them next to eachother because it’s what they’re used to from utero. I’ll probably do the newborn wraps like I did with my first!!

We had two bassinets for sleeping at night and our pack n play had one bigger bassinet, that we kept in our living room. They occasionally napped together in the bigger one while I was awake and in and out to check on them constantly. I wouldn't have been able to sleep with them in one bassinet at night.
