I really hope you asked a Shayla and aren't just fasting without asking!

Did you ask a rav? Perhaps you should be doing shiurim

I'm impressed you ever manage to nurse/pump enough for triplets!

Yes bh I have enough milk, I asked one rav who said no heter for Yom Kippur. I was surprised. So I asked another rav who sad I “can” do shiurim if I have to.
So I eat like a lot and otherwise I’m starving and I get very very thirsty.
So I know I “can” do shiurim but now I feel guilty cause first rav told me no.
And also, will shiurim even be manageable?
I’m so nervous!

Why would shiurim not be manageable? If you’ve undertaken nursing triplets, sounds like just about anything in the world is manageable by comparison

I would make sure you have formula in the house / some pumped milk just in case.

Not going to question who you asked
But I'm nursing twins here... mine eat solids already so was told to do shurim if I felt I need it, if not would have been told shurim from the start of the fast... that's with 2...

I had a baby bout 12 days before YK and was quite weak but was told no heter for YK. Even though the OB said I need to drink but the Rav said I shouldn’t. He said to stay in bed if I need to.

Bh it was ok.

Now I’m just curious, if my newborns eat about 1/2 hour each time or longer..and you have to do that times 3, or pump, do you sit and nurse/pump most of the day?

Probably ALL day. Wow op I'm amazed by you. You're amazing. How did the fast go? What did you end up doing? Do you have other kids? Just asking out of curiosity, because I'm truly in awe of you!

I'm not OP, and I have no idea what OP does, but it is possible to nurse two babies at the same time.
Super impressive either way! (Just commenting on the logistics.)

OP, so how was it?

Wow! Im shocked that you didn't get a heter. How are you feeling? I am not the best faster and am nursing 1 baby who is over 9 months old and was told to do shiurim alternating between powerade and crackers if I feel weak.
