I have to say that hearing about that this morning made me feel bad for complaining about feeling huge with twins...

I reckon she'll be able to do half breast, half formula. I'm sure breastfeeding quads must be possible as my friend breastfed triplets, she used to feed 2 together and then 1, so you could feed 2 then 2!?!?!?! Not sure I would want to try it though.

I'm sure she'll get a good amount of breastmilk into them though.
