#1151, "Need Advice on various triplet gear"


          

It's my first time posting on here! (hope I don't mess this up, lol)
I'm 25 weeks along with BGB triplets...hanging in there! I also have 1 son who will be 5 on New Years Eve. I'm doing my research on baby gear so I can make the most of what I can afford and not have remorse after using the products.

STROLLERS- So far it looks like you almost have to purchase two different strollers....one that accommodates them in their carseats and snaps in, and then another stroller when they have outgrown their carseats and they are able to sit up on their own. Any advice on which stroller or strollers I should consider purchasing? I like the triple decker strollers but they are very expensive. If the Double Decker company makes one stroller that could last from Infancy to 40+ lbs each it may be worth it, but I haven’t seen which stroller that would be.

Feeding Tables. Has anyone found a reasonably priced feeding table? I have been hunting second hand stores, craigslist, ebay, and closing daycare centers. The best one I found the lady wanted 290.00 and it was VERY LOVED (from a school) and I found one brand new for $325.00 including shipping at justmultiples.com. Is this the best option? I hate the idea of having to clean all the “nooks and crannies” of 3 highchairs! The feeding table looks so much more practical. I am open to suggestions ,though!!

Baby monitor: Does anyone have a recommendation for a baby monitor that comes with multiple cameras and displays on one screen? I think I saw one that was by Summer and just shy of $290.00. Please let me know what you would suggest based on your experiences.
Thank you so much for your help!

Welcome! If you don't get more replies here you should post on the main forum and you'll get more responses. I have GGGs who are 2 1/2. We used a bunch of different strollers. When they were babies we had a double snap and go and stacked the third carseat on the handle and closest baby's carseat. It worked great and was way cheaper than a triple stroller. As they grew out of their carseats we had a double umbrella style stroller. Small so it would fit through a doorway and folds up easily. I would wear the third in a front pack or backpack. Now that they can walk we don't use a stroller. They either sit in the shopping cart or walk beside me holding the cart. We have a triple baby jogger that we use around the house for walks to the park and things like that and it got a TON of use.

As for your other questions, we didn't use a feeding table or video monitor. There are times I would like to know what's going on in their room even still but it wasn't necessary. We use the booster style high chairs on a bench (and strapped onto a piece of plywood) so it is like three highchairs together. They still use it and it works great. There is a bit of a mess around the chairs and bench though.

Congrats!
