We literally started from the day we got home from the hospital. Now, we didn't have any complications so the boys came home together. Because they were on the small side and lost some weight from birth we were on this schedule.

Nurse every two hours. Immeditely after nursing feed babies 20 cc's of formula. After that I would pump for 20 minutes.

If the boys were sleeping we would wake them up. as they got bigger and started gaining weight better we wouldlet them sleep but if one woke up to eat we would wake the other one up. It usually balanced out that the one who was woken up wasn't as hungry so he wouldb e the first one to wake up the next time around.

Now, they're almost five months, one of our guys still wkaes up in the night. the other one sleeps through. We stopped waking him up when we realized he REALLY didn't want to eat.

Hope this helps.

Congrats on your twins!
