You know, the breast milk thing did sort of work out - the twins got the food they needed, which is the central thing. I'm a big fan of breastfeeding and everything, but when you talk about the pros of bf'ing "getting fed" has to be at the top of the priority list. <br /><br />That might have sounded lame...<br /><br />...also I'm so behind times this comment probably doesn't mean much any more...<br /><br />BeaBeahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11877513815828460269noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30259745.post-75092217204288001072009-08-21T17:23:59.155-04:002009-08-21T17:23:59.155-04:00Thank you for sharing such a beautiful story.
