9. Breastfeeding


Feeding twins is time-consuming! Carol Clay, who runs Tamba’s helpline, says, ‘Because twin babies are smaller, it can take them time to latch properly. They can need feeding every two hours, which is time-consuming and exhausting. If possible, try to feed them at the same time.’

Is it wrong I feel so upset about my expanding waistline? I couldn't be happier about expecting twins, I'm currently 21 weeks and 3 days and I feel massive. I don't want to be so selfish but I can't help it. Are any other mums expecting twins feeling this way? I feel so guilty as I shouldn't be worried about putting on weight it's only natural. This I my first pregnancy so maybe that's part of the reason why I'm not used to it and feeling so huge.
