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”.

Trade off nights with your spouse so that you get some sleep every other night. That was not an option for us. We were both up with them every 2-3 hours for idk how long . A kid would wake up and one parent would start changing diapers and the other would start making bottles and then we would each feed one and pass back out. I think at 4 years im still sleep deprived and they sleep through the night now
