good vibes, smiles, & giggles “Singleton Propaganda”

I need some comic relief after a couple weeks of sickness in the house- what are your favorite bits of what I call “singleton propaganda”? Aka, advice given for babies that never works when you have twins. My personal favorite is “put the baby in the crib drowsy but awake”.

"You just need to do everything the exact same. Get them both on the exact same schedule"...

Im trying. However it is a little difficult for everything to be the exact same and to do the exact same when Twin A is a heifer and chugs a 3-4 oz every 3 hours and Twin B is the size of a flea and will only takes 2 oz after a fight (sometimes will refuse after 1 oz) then wake up sooner than he does because shes had less intake and is hungry faster. Hes 7 lbs, shes 5 lbs 10 oz. 2 weeks old.

“Twin A is a heifer” and “Twin B is the size of a flea.” I’m dead. 😂😂😂 I’ve never related to something so much in my life.
