 Amazing stash! I cringe to think of throwing all that
 milk away. It would be great if they let it on the
 plane! Definitely worth a call to TSA. Good luck!

 Definitely too early for synchronized naps. Mine have
 just started about 90% napping at the same time, and
 they are 12 weeks. Seemed like for a while there, as
 one would close his eyes, the other would open his.
 Frustrating, but I tried to look at it as one on one
 time. They will sync up eventually!We were able to get
 them feeding at the same time by always tandem nursing,
 whenever the first one was hungry. Kind of
 heartbreaking to wake up a baby that JUST fell asleep,
 but I would let him fall asleep at the breast to avoid
 being overtired (a big no-no, I know, but nothing is
 worse than being overtired...don't we know this in our
 sleep deprivation! :) also, they really didn't mind
 waking up to eat, to the extent they have to be awake.
 I found staying disciplined with this was the key. If
 one wasn't really hungry, he wouldn't eat much and want
 to eat again within two hours. I would hold him off as
 long as he could be distracted and then feed them both.
 It seemed like there were more feedings in a day this
 way, but now that we're ironed out on synchronization,
 we have fewer feedings. Probably also a product of
 age.Good luck! It WILL happen! :)
