Bottle feeding twins - together or separately?

Question

6 week old twins, husband works full time, currently staggering the feeds by around 15mins, but wondering whether to feed together?

Answer

My husband also works full time but he got up with me at every single feed and I would feed one and him the other. Even now that they are 8 months he always does their first morning feed at 6am with me before he goes to work. Its nice to have the help and nice to be able to feed them at the same time.

Answer

Way easier to feed together in my opinion. My girls are one now and still eat at exactly the same time.

Answer

Whoever said separately is nuts. You'd be feeding all day back to back if you staggered. Feed them together, nap them at the same time and find your sanity!

Answer

My twins are going on two weeks and I feed them one after the other which work out perfectly for me and they seem used to it now. They seem like they know because they wake up like clock work allow me to feed and change once I’m done the other start to wake up I hope I can keep them like this.

Answer

Ok I’m trying but all I seem to be doing is making a mess and one of my boys is bringing up lots of milk every feed... I feel stressed and not sure what I’m doing wrong :( have them both at a nice angle against a pillow, next to each other... any tips please???

Answer

We feed together! But I’m a big time schedule freak haha if you’re more laid back than me, then stagger away. There’s no right or wrong. I just prefer to do it all together. 
If I am alone I put them both in boppy pillows and hold bottles up to their mouths and take turns burping 😂 it’s a pain sometimes but I’d rather get it all done in a half hour than do one at a time over a whole hour

Answer

I personally feel like it's easier on everyone to feed them together

Answer

Sometimes I fed them together, sometimes one was sleeping and so I fed one and then woke and fed the other 🤷‍♀️
