Hello Ellen,
I was intersted in getting information about breastfeeding multiples (twins,
triplets & up) since also teach childbirth classes and was developing classes
especially for moms expecting multiples. The Triplet Connection has many
articles that can be purchased about breastfeeding triplets, quadruplets, and
even exclusive breastfeeding of quints! The breastfeeding book from the Center
for the Study of Multiple Birth "Breastfeeding Twins, Triplets, and Quadruplets:
195 Practical Hints for Success" is no longer published, maybe a Mother's of
Twins Club may have a copy in their library since it can no longer be purchased.
That is what they told me when I tried to order a copy of it.
Another good reference is Midwifery Today, they have many conferece tapes
available and the one titled "Breastfeeding: High Demand Situations" by Sheila
Wallace is mainly about breastfeeding multiples (twins and triplets) and is made
for the LC on how to help the mom manage. She also discuss breastfeeding
premies (since many are early).
I hope this helps, this is about all that I can add from what already has been
posted here.
