Moral Dilemma
The feeding pattern for the twins is change the diapers, feed the babies, put them down to sleep unless they are awake and want to play. Let's imagine that while they are eating, it becomes quite clear that one or the other (or both!) has, um, soiled his or her diaper. The feeding continues. The baby in question decides to drop into a peaceful slumber. Am I a horrible mom if I choose to let the baby sleep in a dirty diaper rather than wake the baby up and start the cycle all over again?

The diapers now a days are pretty good at soaking up the moisture... let the sleeping baby sleep!! :)
Take care
No, you are a SANE mom.
If they are annoyed or it's bothering them, they will let you know, no question!
Nope. I have an 18 month old daughter. I am still nursing her. Did it all the time when she was little like yours are. I always used ton of vaseline to give her a nice protection. I find that between the extra-soakable diapers these days and the vaseline protections it would help ease my guilt. Never wake a sleeping baby is my motto! Still is, in fact. I can count on one hand the times I've woken her. I always choose sleep over anything else.
