Nervous

in Parenting after a Loss

So Dh is going to see his Dad who was in a bad car accident tomorrow.  My brother & SIL are coming for the weekend anyway so they have said they will help me with the babies that way my Mom/Dad won't have to drive in.  I am so nervous that when 3am hits they will not be up to helping and I will be flying solo. 

I am also worried about our routine we do the same thing each and every single night and now it is going to be different.  John always feeds Kate before bed and I feed Ben now it is will different.  I need them to sleep!  They both did awesome last night so I am hoping they will have pity on me and sleep for me. 

I just hate when dh goes out of town normally and now with Ben & Kate it just makes it so much worse.  He really does so much with them after work and I am so thankful to have him. 

Please tell me it will be ok and Ben & Kate (mainly) will behave at night.

    They will be great.  Mr. Seminole is gone a lot  and abby seems to "know" and is better for me.  I know it's different with twins but I know you'll do great!

    are they too young to be bribed? probably, huh? i'm hoping they both give you nothing but smiles, laughter and sleep while your dh is away.

    Should I try Swedish Fish?

    It will be ok, they will sleep great. :)  My dh is a really big help with the kids after work, too, and every time he has to travel or even be gone for the evening I have a bit of dread in the pit of my stomach.  Then I do it, and usually find that it's kind of (don't take this the wrong way), but nice.  I still miss my dh, and it's still maybe harder in some ways, but it's also usually fun to have a break from our routine and we get some nice moments we wouldn't have otherwise had.

    I know they will do great! If not, I think bribing them with Swedish fish sounds like a plan.  GL!
