'''Don't top up with formula''' - your milk is produced on a supply and demand basis. That means the more you feed the more milk you have. In the early weeks your twins will cluster feed and you might worry that you are not producing enough milk. The truth is that cluster feeding is how they encourage your body to produce more milk. If you top up with formula (which is sometimes mistakenly recommending by well meaning health visitors) then you will in fact lessen your milk supply and hence create a problem. As they get older they will feed less and your supply will be well and truly established to meet their needs. I found the Kelly Mom website a great help with understanding all about breastfeeding [http://kellymom.com/parenting/parenting-faq/fussy-evening/KellyMom]
