Enlightened hospitals will accommodate breastfeeding mothers and babies when either the mother or the baby needs to be admitted to the hospital, so that breastfeeding can continue. Many rules that restrict breastfeeding are more for the convenience of staff than for the benefit of mothers and babies. Breastfeeding twins is too difficult to manage. Breastfeeding twins is easier than bottle feeding twins, if breastfeeding is going well. This is why it is so important that a special effort should be made to get breastfeeding started right when the mother has had twins.
Many women have breastfed triplets exclusively.
This obviously takes a lot of work and time, but twins and triplets take a lot of work and time no matter how the infants are fed. Women whose breasts do not enlarge or enlarge only a little during pregnancy, will not produce enough milk. Some of these women say that their breasts did not enlarge during pregnancy. However, the vast majority of women whose breasts do not seem to enlarge during pregnancy produce more than enough milk. A mother whose breasts do not seem full has little milk in the breast.
