I am end of 2nd tri with twins and as so many are prem, I am trying to think about the practicalities!
I bf DD for around 9 mos, ebf till nearly 6 mos then returned to work but managed to keep 3ish feeds in 24h till 9mos.
But it was HARD. She clusterfed like a champ for hours as a newborn, my back hurt so so much, she put on weight slowly and I was pressured to top up with formula - compromised by expressing and adding to her feeds with a syringe.
I would really like to ebf the twins but how possible is it? I am searching for twin nursing pillows tonight and the vast majority are clearly intended for ff mums so I am getting the sense it is not that common.
