Abstract
How do women experience breastfeeding multiples? Given the rising rate of multiple births and the global public health target of increasing the number of women exclusively breastfeeding up to the first 6 months, it is imperative that we understand why women who give birth to multiple babies breastfeed for shorter durations compared to those who have one baby. This chapter will explore the qualitative experiences of mothers who breastfeed twins/triplets and the social and physical capital women use to support multiple breastfeeding. Paying close attention to the mothers’ personal accounts this chapter will detail the many resources women draw on to meet the challenges of breastfeeding twins and triplets.
