Karleen,
I have a mom with twins (I think I posted on this before?) who took 3 weeks
before she produced drops of milk.  At 10 weeks she is totally breastfeeding.
Only because of her dedication with a pump and SNS. She nearly died giving
birth  She has had support from the author of Mothering Multiples, LLL, and
Lactation Consultants.  Her husband has been the most powerful support.  She
refused to believe she couldn't produce milk.  We tried only breastfeeding for
nearly two weeks.  One twin didn't gain, one gained 4 oz. She is back to feeding a
little extra expressed milk but not much as they gained beautifully with just
a little extra.  It is a miracle one twin is nursing at all because he
wouldn't suck unless the SNS was in place.  But this mom is a nutritionist who
educated herself 100% and REFUSED to give up.  So anything is possible.
