Milk needed for 1 month old twins till reestablish supply... Empty Milk needed for 1 month old twins till reestablish supply...

Post by Mama2preemietwins Mon May 02, 2011 2:42 pm

I am a mom to premature twin boys, they were born at 35 weeks and were 4 and 5 lbs. After the first few days of colostrum I was pumping up to 4 oz per breast while they were in the NICU. Our hospital was not very supportive of breastfeeding and I was unable to try to teach my boys to latch. They were givien bottles and pacifiers against my wishes. They are 1 month old and still purse their lips and lick or open their mouth but don't actually latch. I noticed my supply getting lower and lower and I started on fenugreek and was just told to try oatmeal daily. I still pump every 2-3 hours and spend a lot of time trying to let them latch on. I really hope I can get my supply up, I do not want my boys on formula. [we cannot afford it!! They go through a can in two days!!] One of my sons has a large VSD and I know breastmilk will help him fight off all the problems that come with this heart condition and hopefully we can prevent surgery. I am very excited to discover this website. They have no diet restrictions, and we live in El Paso. I would only need the donations till I get my supply up, which will hopefully be very soon. Thank you in advance...
