[QUOTE="ready2run, post: 492233, member: 11339"] just because you can't breastfeed full time doesn't mean you should just give up. how old are your babies? if you don't have enough milk pump after they eat when you are empty. this will increase your milk supply and in the mean time supplement them with formula. it's normal for breast fed babies to want to feed again after a half hour, especially in the beginning and during growth spurts. for cracked nipples you can get cream that helps quickly. i never had mastitis but the doctor will know what to do about that. if it is a clogged duct then pumping and massaging or heat compress should help. i know they are not the same thing but people often confuse one for the other. you are young and caring for babies is hard. i was your age when i had my oldest and i struggled alot. the most difficult struggle was having to constantly prove to people that i could do it and that i knew what i was doing. i think that made me try extra hard to prove them wrong. good luck to you and try to get some sleep while the babies are sleeping even if it is during the day or you will be too tired to tend to them when they need you.
