I am having twins and would like to BF but with a toddler running round I can't see being able to do 2 at the same time, so I was going to express some for 1 baby and use the podee.
just want to know if anyone has used this, if it is any good and do you have to buy the bottles or do the attachments fit any type of bottle?

sorry to bump this KHIN, but it is something I am considering.

Anyone used it?

I appreciate where you are coming from on this, but... having just had my second dd (no twins) and thinking i'd be able to express plenty for whilst i was work just like i did for dd1, i have realised that life is just so v different and busier this time round and it has just not been possible, on the rare occasions i do have time to sit down and express, i find a helpful toddler insisting on squeezing the pump for me - results milk clamming up completely .

Obviously i do not have twins so could be very wrong - but i'd imagine bf two twins will be far easier than bf one then expressing and bottle feeding the other.

Good luck. When are you twins due?

sorry hattie if I have misled you. 1becomes3 and I both had our twins in March. She is fantastic and is breastfeeding, but I have had to resort to bottlefeeding and wonder if this type of bottle would help dt2 who suffers from colic. It is also sometimes difficult to feed them both together when I am on my own

Doh! sorry just realised the message was from Jan! .

I was just thinking expressing was hard going in addition to breastfeeding twins .

Congratulations
