Online Class – Preparing to Breastfeed Twins

Message from Twinfo’s Founder, Naomi: This marks the first occasion since Twinfo’s inception where I’ve decided to exclude triplets, quads, and other higher-order multiples from a particular offering. This decision wasn’t taken lightly; however, I recognised my limitations in providing accurate information on breastfeeding more than two babies at once. While the majority of the content remains relevant, it may not sufficiently address the nuances of feeding three or more babies at once. As a gesture of support, I’m pleased to extend this course at no cost to families expecting triplets or more when you purchase our practical Online Multiple Birth Pregnancy Class. If this applies to you, please don’t hesitate to reach out via email at info@twinfo.com.au.

ARE YOU AWAITING THE ARRIVAL OF YOUR PRECIOUS TWINS?

As you prepare for this incredible journey of parenthood, one aspect that may be on your mind is breastfeeding.

But fear not! Our “Preparing to Breastfeed Twins” course is here to arm you with the knowledge, skills, and confidence you need to embark on your twin feeding journey.

While the adage “Fed is best” resonates with many parents, at Twinfo, we believe “Informed is best.”

While breastfeeding is often hailed as the gold standard, we believe that being informed about all feeding options empowers parents to make the best choices for themselves and their families. Whether it’s direct breastfeeding, expressing, donor milk, formula feeding, or a combination of all four methods, having access to accurate information and expert guidance allows parents to navigate their feeding journey with confidence and clarity.

By prioritising informed decision-making, parents can ensure that they are equipped to meet the unique needs of their twins while fostering a nurturing and supportive environment for their family.
