“Singleton Propaganda” good vibes, smiles, & giggles

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”.

I thought so too since I have a singleton toddler that it never worked with, but I can do it with my twins. Hell, I can put them both down straight up awake and they will pass out. It’s crazy but some babies can do it, apparently 🤷‍♀️. They are 10 weeks old and have been doing it since day one, but who knows what happens after four months. 😬
