Tips for starting your life with twins

If any baby needs to visit the paediatrician for regularly scheduled checkups. But you and your twins may need extra help from your paediatrician.

Second, breastfeeding two newborns can be quite different from breastfeeding one. If you're having trouble figuring it out, don't despair! Depending on your needs, a pediatrician or lactation consultant can help.
