Breastfeeding Twins
Photo Gallery and Guide
We have created this special Breastfeeding Twins Photo Gallery and Guide to provide visual education, encouragement and support to those mothers contemplating, or who already are breastfeeding their twins.
Tandem nursing is a unique experience and sometimes requires some unique positions to accommodate two babies comfortably. You may have to get creative with the different holds to find what will work just right for you. It definitely helps to see exactly how other moms are doing it successfully. We appreciate all contributions made here in celebration of twin breastfeeding and sincerely thank you for posting your helpful pictures!
