Exclusive breastfeeding with twins
Hi Akka… I’m your breastfeeding webinar student from July. It’s been a month of exclusive breastfeeding for my twins. I know we have a long way to go but I could not have even gotten this far without you. I was told in my second trimester by my MIL that I wouldn’t be making enough milk. I felt so dejected as I hadn’t even attempted it. My friend suggested that I don’t miss your breastfeeding webinar and I attended it. After the session, I got enough confidence to face what was to come post-delivery. I had an elective c-section done due to preeclampsia and when I opened my eyes in the recovery room post-surgery the first thing, I saw was my twins were being fed together. From their past comments, I just knew I needed to stay confident and post and let that oxytocin go for my little ones. Today we went for the one-month review and both have a healthy weight gain. Our pediatrician is very happy. Thanks so much for spreading such significant knowledge to everyone.
