Feeding Time Tips
 
  • When one baby wakes, feed both babies.  This will save time and help you get more rest.
  • Change diapers before the feeding - this helps wake babies and avoids waking babies after they have finished eating.
  • If bottle feeting, one baby can be held on your lap while the other lies beside you on the couch. 
  • Be sure to elevate the head.  Using bouncy seats is a great idea.
  • When doing for one - do for the other (i.e. diaper changing, feeding, nap time)
  • If n ursing you'll want a pillow for twins.  We reccommend this nursing pillow.  Double Blessings
