Feeding your new baby

breast feeding

Hello everyone, i am 21 weeks pregnant with twins and don't know who to ask about breastfeeding. When i had my little girl 4 years ago i couldn't breast feed as she was lactose intolerant and i didn't know how to do it correctly so i gave up quickly.
This time i really want to try, does anyone know if you can feed one by breast and give the other one breastmilk in a bottle? Will they dislike my breast because of the bottle?
i would like to feed both together but i am very nervous and also my hubby wants to get stuck in.

HELP

Hi, I dont know much about breast feeding as am only 12 weeks with my 1st.. but my hospital offered me breast feeding classes, maybe get in contact with yours and see if they offer anything similar.

Good luck!! Nicole x

ask your midwife what is available in your area. Breast feeding classes are available in most places now. If its not provided by the hospital/ midwife antenatal classes, then try sure start. M y local sure start does a breast feeding workshop and also have drop in sessions that you can attend before and after the birth
