My friend did a lot of research trying to find the best (and most reasonably priced) double stroller for his new (and too cute) twin baby grand-daughters, Taiya and Aliya. He ended buying the Contours Options Tandem Stroller by Kolcraft, which is currently on sale at Amazon.com for $184.54 with Free Super Saver Shipping and Free Returns (this item is eligible for Free 365-Day Returns on Baby items from Amazon). The list price is normally $249.99.

This Kolcraft Contours Options Tandem Stroller includes a car seat attachment that accommodates most brands of infant car seats on the market today, but as you see from the picture above, the newborn babies are able to utilize the reclined seats just fine. There are also numerous toddler features including areas for easy step-in and rear stadium-style seating for improved view and 8″ swivel wheels with suspension and 10″ rear wheels that never go flat for better maneuverability important feature in a tandem stroller. Each seat can hold up to 40 pounds each. Users love the handy quick trigger fold and free-stand design that remains upright after folding (The folded-up size is 24″ x 25″ x 42″).

My, have double strollers come a long way since my twins were little!? I would have loved to have this stroller made for twins as well as discount websites such as Savings.com seventeen years ago!

When my preemie twin daughters were in the NICU, my “bible” was The Premature Baby Book: A Parents Guide to Coping and Caring in the First Years by Helen Harrison and Ann Kositsky. While it was originally published in 1983, most of the information was still relevant in 1994. In fact, between my two preemie twins, they had almost every complication (ie Respiratory Distress Syndrome, PDA (heart murmurs), central line infections, retinopathy of prematurity (ROP) and Necrotizing Enterocolitis (NEC), etc.) that the book covered.

Preemies: The Essential Guide for Parents of Premature Babies by Dana Wechsler Linden, Emma Trenti Paroli, and Mia Wechsler Doron M.D.Since that book is now hard to come by, and I’m not giving up my copy (it stays in my remembrance tub), I frequently get asked what book do I recommend? After some research, I suggest the top selling book in the appropriate category on Amazon: Preemies: The Essential Guide for Parents of Premature Babies by Dana Wechsler Linden, Emma Trenti Paroli and Mia Wechsler Doron M.D.

Linden and Paroli are actually mothers who met in the hospital when their preemies were born, and Doron is a neonatologist who all put together this comprehensive guidebook for parents of premature babies. Order your own copy from Amazon.com.

Since I’m a big fan of saving money with coupon codes, you may want to see if you can find some Books Online coupon codes. Unfortunately Amazon never has coupons available for books, but their prices are comparable without.
