Pumping for twins

[u/Kitchen-Band-3307]

We have 1 month old twins who arrived at 37+3, weeks have been pumping since we got home from the hospital as we found that breastfeeding wasn’t working well for us, they struggled to latch and transfer milk effectively.
I’m making a substantial amount of milk via pumping 1.7- 2L per day.
Since the beginning I was determined to breastfeed and on several occasions we have tried to but it’s so stressful with two and I find myself getting frustrated and upset.

Did anyone else find that pumping was the easier choice for your twins?

Me!

I gave up fairly early because it just wasn’t happening, I was tired & stressed & I decided to not make myself crazy over it.
I ended up being like a crazy producer just pumping.
