Return to article: How to Breast-Feed a Premature Baby
on 8/8/2006 My twin girls were born at 33 weeks and 4 pounds. I pumped for nearly a month until they were ready to try to breast feed. Now they are 15 and 16 pounds at 7 months old. It is worth nursing twins.
on 11/22/2005 Please, do not start feeding your preemie formula just because you may not have enough milk, or because the baby can not suck for a long time. I have a preemie baby, she would not suck either. With a lot of effort, she is doing just fine now. Breast feed your babies, it is the most important care you can give to them. :)
