Dear wonderful colleagues,
I recently posted about a mom of twins, one of whom was having some feeding issues.  I received several very helpful responses.  I am happy to report that both twins are now nursing well with no supplements (of either breastmilk or ABM being given).  Baby "B", who was having issues gained 11 oz. in 8 days last week.  Mom is amazing in her persistence and thrilled that both babies are taking the breast well now.  She attributes the problems to use of a pacifier for one day at approx. day 7.  

Thank you to everyone who responded, it provided me with reassurance and ideas of things to say and try with these little guys.  

And a big thanks to the List Mothers who keep this list up and running for all of us.  It is such a valuable resource.

Warm Regards,
Dawn Martin, CD (DONA), IBCLC
