Feeding twins from same side each time?

[ceeveebee]

i have been feeding my 17 week old twins from their 'allocated' boob each time, mainly because one of my twins is bigger and greedier than the other so I thought the supply would need to be seperate ( and actually when I express I get almost double from the greedy twin's boob).

But I have just read on another thread that this might cause issues re the twins eyesight as they'll become accustomed to only looking at me from one direction.

They are mix fed btw, they each have 3 bf and 3 bottles a day of EBM /formula, and I/DH don't have any side preference for how their bottles are given)

Is this a problem! Should I start alternating

Thanks

Any ideas? Anyone??

Well I have no expertise whatsoever but I wouldn't think it would make a difference because if you were exclusively bottlefeeding your babies, wouldn't you always do it from the same side i.e. the side you were most comfortably holding the baby, bottle, etc? You wouldn't swap sides like you do with breastfeeding. Or do you?

I have NO qualifications but was advised to switch mine by a cranial sacral therapist so they turned their heads different ways. However that may be a trade off against your finely balanced supply. Mine drank similar quantities but at different frequencies so alternating worked for mem unless someone can come along and give us some sound info I suggest you keep doing what works best for you?

My twins seemed to have a fav boob each, so we stuck with that most of the time, but it also depended on who demanded first and which boob I felt needed emptying the most!

Thanks for replies, think I'll stick to what I'm doing! Ta
