Feeding twins
I'm curious as to how other mommies handle two screaming babies at the same time, feeding wise. My DH is a huge help when he doesn't have to work...he'll feed one and I'll feed the other. He works 12 hour shifts and there are days when I'll be handling the boys on my own...for 48 or 72 hours straight. Since my babies are only 5 weeks old, they're eating 3-4 ounces every 3-4 hours and it takes a lot out of me, especially when they're both crying. I've been switching off by giving an ounce or two then going back to the other baby.
Any input would be greatly appreciated!

Re: Feeding twins
I used a bottle prop for one and just took turns feeding one or the other each time. It works great.
