High-Risk Pregnancy

had my twins @ 35 wks!

Michael Timothy and Anna Grace were born at 35 wks last thursday just shortly before 1am.  Both are doing great but still in the special care nursery.  I came home yesterday and have been a wreck ever since.  I have 2 other children here at home that I need to be here for but I feel like I have abandoned my twins.  I know they are exactly where they need to be and getting taken care of.........  my head knows that but my heart hurts knowing that I am not with them.  My mom was suppposed to come over today and take me (I can't drive b/c of the c-section) but she is sick and not coming. My dh is going to go there on his lunch and feed them, but I won't be able to go there today to see them. By the time he would get home from work it would be dinner time and he doesn't want to take the other 2 there that late...... older one has homework and has to be in bed early for school.  So that means I won't see my babies today and they won't know that I am there feeding and holding them.  I didn't expect this to be this hard.

  • First, congrats on you babies! I'm sure it is so tough to be away from them and not be able to see them.  Do you have any friends who could stay with your older ones for a few hours?  You are doing all you can for them and I'm sure they will be home with you soon.  Do you know how much longer they will be in the NICU?  Hang in there and keep doing what you are doing!
