Hey there you. I recognized you from the pregnant with multiples chat and when I saw your post was wondering if you guys were going to try to get your milk supply up as well for the new babies.

Hopefully your twins will not come early but if they do and they have to spend some time in the NICU definitely look into seeing if your insurance will cover a pump while they are in there. Also if you dont qualify for medicaid yourself but your kids do then the hospital can bill the pump on your new babies medicaid and I KNOW they cover it until they come home from the NICU.

Also dont know about your financial situation but if you qualify for WIC they can/will sometimes give out loaner pumps to moms (especially moms of twins) for pretty much as long as you need it.
