The title is a bit simplistic, obviously. I've got eight week old twin boys. I'm struggling at feeding times during the day when I'm on my own because I can't seem to keep everyone happy. I inevitably have one crying furiously while I'm trying to feed and wind the other, and then vice versa. They are quite slow and messy eaters, so feeding often takes more than an hour between the two of them during the day: an hour of them crying frantically, scratching at me, being a bit sick, etc. I absolutely hate it and feel like there must be a better way. I also worry that their brains won't develop properly because their needs aren't being met. They're due a feed in thirty minutes and I'm dreading it! Any tips?
