Popular Post Melissa in Australia Posted July 7, 2023 Author Popular Post Share Posted July 7, 2023 (edited) The hospital is so amazing. Last night a nurse showed me where there is a laundry room and lent me a hospital gown to use as nightdress. So many parents arrive just like me, unexpected, no luggage. they're all set up to help in so many huge ways.

I’m so so glad things seem to be looking up. Hope you got some sleep and some food. It is pretty stressy, but I think me being with twin 1 is less stressy than poor dh and twin 2, back at home and worried sick. Twin 2 has completely gone off eating. And of course in true brotherly style when they did talk to each other the first thing twin 2 said to twin 1 was "I smashed all your lego" . An untrue statement. 2 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So many parents arrive just like me, unexpected, no luggage. they're all set up to help in so many huge ways. I'm so glad! I was confident that they would be, but sometimes parents get a little lost in the shuffle until the dust settles, and at some point, the parents need to be able to shift into self-care mode to keep going! We had one expected hospitalization last year that had a lot of twists and turns and then one unexpected/emergent hospitalization that was more relaxing, oddly enough. It's very weird how it plays out at times. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An untrue statement. Having been both the parent at hte hospital and the parent at home, I agree with you that DH is probably having a hard time. And of course his brother said something that usually would make his brother come running. Consciously he knows it won't work, but subconsciously, he doesn't. 7 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
