I once saw somewhere a front upright carrier for twins (on the same
person) but I think it only went to something like a combined weight of
30 lbs or so.  I wonder whether it would be possible to sling 2 babies
at once in 2 slings.  I get the impression it would not be that easy.

I've thought that if I ever had twins I'd probably sling one, and put
the other in a bucket, which would likely be easier than trying to carry
both of them...and I'd probably alternate them each day or whatever.

Though I have joked on occasion that if I had twins I'd bf one and
bottle-feed the other so that my husband can get up and do that in the
night...but that is just a joke.  ;-)
