I know it's harder with twins though. I don't think it's a problem to feed them together sometimes, as long as they still get a lot of cuddling time.
Oh believe me, they got (get) LOTS of cuddles! I didn't have them really on a schedule for a while, but their feedings were also normally not at the same time, so needing to feed them together only happened maybe 25% of the time. I just remember feeling like I was going to lose my mind when they were newborns and thinking I wish I could prop a bottle, just once!

I know the "types" you mean though, who prop and feed at the same time all the time.
