Here's the reference for breastfeeding "conjoined" twins:

LaFleur EA, Niesen KM
Breastfeeding conjoined twins.
J Obstet Gynecol Neonatal Nurs 1996 Mar-Apr;25(3):241-4

Mayo Foundation Hospitals, Department of Nursing, Rochester, MN 55905

Abstract:  "The breastfeeding experience of a mother and her preterm
conjoined twins is described. Assisting the mother in achieving her
breastfeeding goal presented unusual nursing-care problems in securing,
positioning, and comforting the twins. This case report emphasizes the
individualized support provided to this mother and her infants, which was
a critical factor in their breastfeeding success."
