Hi ...

I am expecting twins in the 1st/max 2nd week of feb.... hence i need some advise from someone knowledgeable or experienced about breastfeeding twins...

Things like ... how do you do it ... both together or 1 at a time ... holding positions... how long is it humanly possible to keep bf them ... when can some formula be introduced for say just one feed a day ( for me to get some sleep in the nights) ... and anything else from experience...

Hey there,
This is LK from Feb board but I am scheduled for a C-section on 24th of Jan.I am also having twins.Its my second Preg.I am also wondering how i am going to manage with both the kids either to Bf then how long? or when should I intro the formula and lots of Q's are going through my mind.Anyway I have bought some bottles to be prepared.I read in the internet that we can save some time if we feed both the kids at the same time or if one is sleeping and the other one is hungry,then as soon as the first one is done feeding we can wake up the second and feed the baby.Anyway just one more week for me.My babies are in Breech positions so i am going to have a C.But my due date is Feb8th.Good Luck! to you.We will keep sharing our
experience.
