Juggling feedings, diaper changes, and sleep schedules for multiples is quite the task. The Itzbeen is a simple gadget that times how long it's been since the last feeding, changing, or nap — making life much easier for maxed-out parents.

Stroller Links
Mom might initially use a bulky double stroller for her infant twins, but eventually, her babies will graduate to lightweight umbrella strollers. Parents of twins (or two tots in general) have rave reviews for these affordable stroller links. They easily connect two umbrella strollers, so you have the ease and flexibility of taking the twins together, or alone for special one-on-one time.

Big Ol' Diaper Bag
Double the diapers. Double the wipes. Double the bottles. Mom is going to need one roomy diaper bag! Skip Hop's Duo Double Deluxe bag has 16 pockets and a detachable messenger-style strap that's wide enough to fit across the handles of a double stroller.

Personalized Bibs
In the early weeks of parenting multiples, everything can become a blur — including the names and identities of identical twin babies. If the parents have already decided on names, consider giving them personalized bibs that serve as name tags. If the names haven't been chosen or announced, pairs of bibs in different colors can make a nice gift. Many parents of twins "color code" their babies' clothes to help keep them straight.

A Pair of Bumbo Seats
The Bumbo Baby Sitter Chair appears on many baby shower registries these days, and for good reason. It's a supportive seat that helps babies sit up on their own from as early as three months. Bumbo now offers a Play Tray attachment for babies to eat or play on, which is great for fostering independence in twins.

Children's Books for Twins
Twins share a special bond — and unique challenges — as they go through life together. Help prepare the babies on the way for the journey ahead by filling their library with children's books about twins. The books can also help educate the twins' older sibling, if they have one.
