A mum who chose to breastfeed one twin and bottle-fed the other insists she doesn’t have a favourite. Courtney Kleinebreil, 27, was delighted when her twins, Sutton and Brooks, arrived on November 15, 2019 via a c-section and she was able to breastfeed them both.
Sutton was born weighing 6lbs 1oz and Brooks was born weighing 6lbs exactly, but, after a couple of weeks, Sutton wasn't gaining enough weight. After she continued to measure low, doctors advised Courtney to start bottle feeding her - so she could measure exactly how much milk Sutton was consuming.
Courtney - who is also mum to Taydum, four - carried on breastfeeding Brooks but Sutton refused to latch after she got used to the bottle. Courtney continued to nurse Brooks until he was nearly two and hasn’t noticed a difference in her twins.
