Ok, so usually TLC makes me want to shoot myself in the head... but I am currently watching Bringing Home Baby and I am actually quite happy about it!! This mom had triplets 8 weeks early and they have had nothing but BM!! She is pumping a crap ton (they had to buy a SECOND fridge/freezer!!!) but yeah.. I think it is so cool that she didn't just go straight to formula

Yay!!!! Those are some lucky babies!

Woohoo!

I remember the freezer stash I had with DS#1 (29 weeker). I was really glad I already had an extra freezer!

Wow! Even I am impressed-- I always kinda thought: twins, no big deal, a breast for each. But triplets--how do you DO that? I guess I have my answer--you pump and get an extra freezer. Just think of the extra calories THAT mom needs every day!

 

[Alohamelly]

Good for her!

 

[stanleymama]

That is impressive!

 

[groovynaturemama]

Thats so awesome. I remember seeing sextuplets (or something) on Oprah and the mom said that she always nursed atleast 1 baby at every feeding. They got a lot of formula too - and she didnt have time to pump - but while others fed some babies she nursed 1 or 2 and always rotated.
