Sounds like time to bring out the big guns
How dare that midwife speak to like that!!
Is there someone that can speak up for you i.e the kids paed,or a midwife you get along with. Sounds like she is trying to bully you, but if she had someone stand up to her - maybe she will relax and crawl back to her corner.

Another suggestion is to see about hiring or finding out about a lactation consulatant to come down to special care. Especially someone with twin experience and even premmie experience. She might be able to work with the nurses to set up a amicable rountine that could continue when you leave and help you become more comfortable with feeding Ivy and Noah

God dam it ****es me when they throw their weight around. You feel helpless and crappy enough as it is and then they try this power trip thing.

Don't take it personally - she is just a *****!!!!
take care hon
and hang in there - they will be home sooo soon now.

My two came home at 36 weeks at 1.7 and 2.1kg so once the feeding is there - you surely to god must be otta there!!!
It was only that one of the midwives had twins herself that i got it happening enough to get home

take care
