B'sha Tova. I don't know from your quesiton wether or not you have older children. I always suggest to soon-to-be-new moms to buy nursing bras. It's very helpful in the hospital and the days after and the last thing you will have time to go out an get when the baby(ies) are here.
I didn't have twins myself but my sil did recently and she had them sleep together, swaddled in the same bassinet. I am pretty sure you can do that for a while. I have even seen people with large single bassinet strollers do the same thing for taking them out.
Good luck and an easy birth.

one pack and play will do for right away. car seats. lots of onesie undershirts. nursing bra and nursing pillow for twins. bottles if you either don't nurse or can't nurse right away (sometimes it's hard after a C-section), you can arrange to rent a pump if you don't want to buy one, or the hospital might lend you one. spit-up cloths, diapers in the tiniest size, a couple of outfits to start with (you're not going anywhere important too soon anyway). most important, make sure you know who will be there to help you when you come home -- a hired nurse, night nurse, family member, etc. I wish you a fast and easy birth, and mazal and bracha. You and the babies should be well and healthy.
