I feel so guilty.....

 

My twin girls were born at 34 weeks.  V came home 2 days ago, C is still in the NICU.  I just let the guilt get the best of me sometimes. 

~ I feel so guilty laying V in her crib instead of holding her all day.  I know this is something most moms go through (ok, I think) and it is healthy for her to sleep by herself, but I feel like I should be making up for lost time.

~ I feel EXTRA guilty not being up at the hospital for C as often.  Since V can't go back up MH and I take turns going.  It is so much harder to leave her there by herself then it was when her sister was with her.

~ I feel the most guilt because it seems like the 3 of us are becoming a family without C.

**Thank god C is supposed to be home this Saturday.

  • I know how you feel....It was probably the hardest thing I ever went through!  DD2 came home 2 days after DD1.  Just know that the hospital is the best place for them to be when they are there!  I hope everyone is home soon enough and you can all be a family!

    I totally know how you feel. Once C is home you will feel much better and if you are anything like me, these sad/guilt ridden thoughts will be long forgotten.
