That's the twins at 17 weeks now only on mamma's milk!
Sophie is 14lbs and Euan 13lbs- they are both lovely and healthy and wee content bubbas I'm chuffed to say!
I'm still using one side to feed them- Sophie on the left and Euan on the right and my body has adjusted to their needs. I haven't put them on a routine I feed when they need to be fed. I'm definitely more chilled out about breastfeeding than I was with my other babies and thankfully I've reached the easy stage where they take a full feed in about 5 minutes.
They seem completely fine on the breastmilk at the moment which is great as I want to hold off weaning till the 6 month mark. Here they are...
It's a photo of a photo so the quality isn't the best- sorry!

Awwww Lynie they are absolutely stunning, so sweet and beautiful! How are the big brother and sister?
Congratulations for doing so well with breastfeeding… ironically I would have thought breast feeding twins would have been more difficult but you seem to be doing fab! Keep up the good work hun x

here's big brother and sister too!
They're getting along fine, the twins coming along has helped bond them closer I think, and they're starting to play lots of wee imaginary games together.

Well done on breast feeding both of the wee ones - can't imagine how hard it must be to feed two yourself!
