Where we live, we have relatively short, but hot summers. Our winters are long, harsh, and frighteningly frigid.
On your run-of-the-mill winter day, hitting -25 degrees Fahrenheit is commonplace. While it's really rare, we've even dipped down to just a few degrees shy of -60 degrees Fahrenheit with the windchill, at the absolute worst.
While you wouldn't be venturing out with your twins on those ultimately bone-chilling days, you will find yourself needing to run errands, hit the grocery store, or pop into the pediatrician's office on your "regularly cold" winter days. And when you do, you'll want to make sure your newborn twins are warm and cozy for the duration of the outing.
The covers are water-repellant and feature a snuggly, fleece-lined cover, which is wonderful for your newborns, who are still working on building up their body fat resources and developing in a way that allows them to properly regulate and maintain an ideal body temperature.
The elasticized trim allows these covers to fit most infant car seats. You can quickly and easily put them in place, which is a game-changer for any mom and dad, when you're already likely running a few minutes' behind (times two, because twins). You can be on your merry way in a few fast seconds, without struggling to get the covers to stay put.
With a double zippered-design, you will have easy access to your babies, which is an important detail that's been worked into these covers. You can quickly open the peekaboo tab to check on your little one or to offer ample airflow once you get inside from the chilling cold.
And because newborns are sometimes prone to spit-ups while on-the-go, I can attest from my own experience that these covers wash and dry well and stay in spectacular condition. You don't have to worry about them shrinking or the fleece lining getting all pilled after just one or two washes. It's fair to say that they should last you for your first winter with your newborn twins.
