When Angela Mazaris came back to her job as the director of the LGBTQ Center 11 weeks after having twins, it was difficult for her to even have a conversation with someone without bursting into tears.
“I was so unbelievably exhausted,” Mazaris said. “[My partner and I] were still sleeping at 45-minute increments at night. I would nurse one of them, and then nurse the other one, and then they both needed bottles because I didn’t make enough milk for them … We would finish all of that and then we would literally have 30 to 45 minutes of time to sleep before they would wake up and start the whole process over again.
