Baby's head, shoulders and hips should be facing the same direction (towards Mom) In the newborn, the body will usually be in a slightly curved position, a bit like the letter "C". The head should always be in line with the rest of baby's body, never arched back or turned sideways.

To make sure you get good posture and are comfortable,You can use nursing pillow special for twin. There are several "nursing" pillows on the market that help raise baby to a comfortable height and position, or try experimenting with pillows you have on hand. Make sure you are well supported, using pillows behind your back, a footstool to raise your lap, whatever it takes to make you comfortable.
Good Luck...
