Moms of singletons and twins:)?

When did you first venture out with the baby/babies after they were born. Visits to the dr. don't count!

I had twins about 9 weeks ago and would like to go to Babies-r-us to pick out a few things, but am a little afraid about a "fussy melt down" while I'm out.

Just wanted to get some other "mommy" perspective:) - oh and tips on how you made it work!

Thanks:)

    I had taken the babies out long before that. Before you leave the home, make sure they each have a binkie or snuggly (If they use them for comfort) Bring pumped b.m or formula in case you need to make an emergency bottle. BRU has nursing rooms if you breastfeed only.

    it's cold so bring a blanket for them. It's no biggie. good luck

    Went to target at 3 weeks-4 weeks. I didnt go alone because i was still recovering from my c-section. Bring a bottle or nursing shawl, diapers, blankets, pacifier and burb rag. And dont worry... if they get fussy and you need to leave its ok.. happens to all of us. Every time I go out I prepare myself for the fact that I can only get done what Sophie lets me... if she is done shopping we go home and I try again later.

    i took them out as soon as they came home from the hospital. they were one month old. it was harder for me to go out but i manage becasue they both came home on O2 and i have to pack around two carriers, two tanks of o2 and the diaper bag. they will most likely sleep and it is not that bad to take them out and about i been doing it and it seems to get easier after you do it awhile. also here is my email tosha_jean@yahoo i have yahoo messenger add me if you want to and i will answer any questions you might have.. my tiwns are now 14 months and they are just starting to state their first steps...

    We went out two weeks after she was born. My hubby was with me. Maybe the first trip out would be easier if someone went with
