Have they actually tried exclusive nursing and found babies were not growing
adequately? This would be the only real way to know I would think. A few days
of nursing, and if needed, EBM supplements, and they would have a reality-
based answer...If mom is able to conceive and carry twins at 44 why be unable
to nurse them? I don't understand that kind of illogic.
