 I looked into a pack and play but decided that I didn't
 want to do that much bending after what could be (and
 ended up being) a C Section. I used these great
 bassinets that you can roll into another room and they
 have storage underneath. I loved them and was sad
 when they outgrew them. I actually posted them for
 sale bc my girls just moved into cribs. Pm me if
 interested.

 @emilee We had the exact same issue with the pak n
 play double bassinet so switched to rock n plays for
 sleep and a single ikea crib around 3 months. Once
 they outgrew the crib at 4.5 months we added a second
 ikea crib. I regret buying the pak n play. At first I
 thought it was a wise investment for both early months
 sleep at home and also for travel as they got older. 
 However I now realize that it would have never worked
 for travel for two babies after 4 or so months due to
 size. For travel on planes and road trips we went
 with two Guava Lotus cribs and have been super happy
 with them. They are easy to pack/unpack, fold into a
 back pack for carrying and are easy to set up and use. 
 They have a side zip feature for those of us more
 "mature" parents with back issues. ;-)In summary, my
 recommendation for twins sleeping arrangements is: *Two
 Fisher Price Rock n Plays: first night home until they
 outgrow at 3-4 months

 (Hit send too soon)*one ikea crib in nursery until they
 out grow it sleeping sideways or start to roll. The
 rock n plays can be used at the same time. Our boys
 napped in rock n plays and slept nights in crib. You
 may or may not agree with that but it worked for us. *
 add second ikea crib once they outgrow sharing
 crib/rock n plays. *guava lotus cribs for travel
