nursing help

I currently nurse both girls together one in the cradle hold and the other in a football hold, can anyone suggest a position that will work and is comfortable?   I feel like the one in the football hold is getting her legs jammed into the couch/chair. Thanks

  • Hi?

    I still tandem feed the kids and their length has always been an issue. ?You could continue to football hold and stack several pillows behind your back so that you are closer to the edge of the couch. ?Or sometimes, I have the kids fold their legs up the back of the couch so they are in a sort of L position (it sounds weird, but as long as they are latched they really don't seem to mind the position that their body is in).

  • Like the pp said - try putting a big pillow behind your back to give them some extra leg room.  I do double football hold with the EZ2Nurse Twin Pillow and they seem comfortable.

  • Thank you for the help I will try this next feeding.  I have thought about getting the EZ2Nurse twin pillow but I wasn't sure how well it worked and I didn't want to waste money on it.
