Breastfeeding
Did anyone breastfeed with twins?
How does it work? I am so confused on when you would feed one and then the other, dont you wanna try and feed them at the same time?

Re: Breastfeeding
you can do it either way, feed them separately or at the same time while using the "football" hold. It's something you'll probably have to get a feel for and then decide which way works best for you and the babies.

Re: Breastfeeding
I did in the beginning - football hold was the easiest position to hold them both - the nurses in the hospital worked with me a lot on that while i was there. they were really wonderful, even called me at home to see how we were doing.

Re: Breastfeeding
I prefer to feed them one at a time but usually one after the other. I found it hard to get them both latched without help. It's easier for me and I like the alone time with each twin too.
