It is really important to learn about breastfeeding before the babies arrive. You would not learn to drive just as you were driving down the slip road onto the motorway, so it’s the same with breastfeeding.

There little evidence regarding making enough milk for two or three babies. Milk supply works on a demand and supply basis. Having two or three babies coming to the breast means the breasts are stimulated two or three times more than those feeding a singleton.

When parents find out they are expecting triplets, this can cause a wide variety of emotions – shock, love, excitement, worry, and even panic. One of the biggest concerns for many parents is whether they will be able to breastfeed their babies.
