Breastfeeding Twins!

Week three of this new journey leaves me exhausted and worn out! True story! I struggled in the beginning with whether or not I was making enough to feel my two little ones. I was so determined to strictly BF but they seemed so hungry! I felt horrible as a mom because I felt like I was putting my wants above their needs. I wanted to BF. However, at their three week weigh in, they had both gained 13 and 11 oz. I was so happy! I wasn't starving my babies!  Now, I'd love to be the supermom that claims to tandem feed all the time, but it just doesn't always work that way. I just read that a lady feeds her twins on demand and individually, unless they are both demanding at the same time, then she tandem feeds. This is a very sacrificing journey, but then....isn't parenting?  I'm still searching for that "routine" we always try to get in the first few weeks.  We're making it, even if the "ladies" feel freeze dried and abused!  It's most definitely worth it!  Here's to more water and healthy eating in the weeks/months to come!
