I responded to your message but I wanted to write to you too to make sure that you saw what I wrote. I saw that you live in Monmouth County. Where in Monmouth County do you live? I live in Oakhurst. What hospital are your babies at? I had my baby at Monmouth Medical Center in July. He spent 12 weeks in the NICU there. If that is where your twins are I can't say enough wonderful things about it. The nurses and doctors are great. We will keep in touch with our primary nurses. My baby's name is Brandon too.

    Hi! ?I live in neptune and we delivered at MMC too. ?All of the doctors and nurses have been wonderful so far, but it's still very overwhelming. I don't know how you did it for 12 weeks. ?The drs are telling us to anticipate 3-4 weeks more and I'm going crazy. ?I will probably be asking a million questions so I'll thank you now, in advance, for sharing your experiences and tips! ?Once the boys come home maybe we can get them together! :-)

    Please feel free to ask me any questions. That would be great if we get the boys together when they come home. What nurses have you had? Just curious if you hav had any that we had. We might be coming in to visit tomorrow night. What time do you usually visit the boys?

    we don't really have a "usually" yet since I just got home from the hospital yet, but today we went right after rounds and are planning to go about 8pm so we might weigh them and participate in feeding, changing, etc.

    i realized i forgot to answer about the nurses.... ?we've had regina, judy, betty, lisa, megan and another whose name escapes me right now. ?I'm sure we'll know everyone in there pretty well by the time we leave!?

    Judy had Brandon a few times and Lisa did too. Our primary nurses were Mark and Chris in the day and Sue and Kate at night. We will probably be visiting the NICU tomorrow night around 8:00. Do you know what "street" the babies are on in the NICU? I will look for you when we are there if we do come. It depends on how he does with his 5 month shots tomorrow if we go or not but Sue and Kate are both working and we want to visit when they are both there.

    How heavy were your babies?

    We always went at that time too so we could participate in cares.

    Where are they in the NICU? We were in every pod at some point.
