In the NICU - when twin babies are stable enough....we will often put them in the same isolette or 'warmer'. The babies gravitate to one another, and naturally want to be touching. We can have babies really stressed independently; but, when put together....more often than not....they are immediately soothed when they can touch and smell their sibling. It's SO awesome to see! 💜

Toddlers are smarter than some people believe. It's definitely a hard topic to comprehend when Flynn can't physically be in the environment, but using pictures and videos, making simple stories to explain where babies are, where mommy and daddy go when they leave to see them, having activities he can participate in like making pictures to put on their NICU beds and showing him that they brought them to the babies... toddlers tend to ask the same questions over and over to come to an understanding but they can grasp things like this in their own way.
@alexaosmotherly20203 жыл бұрын
I actually think this is a great question. Because Flynn knows the babies are born, but maybe he is actually wondering why they aren’t home with him and his parents? You never know what goes on in a toddlers curious mind.

I’m a premie twin! My twin brother and I were born three months early into the NICU and just like your baby girl I couldn’t breathe either. My twin and I were 2 lbs and 9 oz and I believe did about 11 weeks in the NICU. Fun fact I am now dating one of the NICU nurses that helped to take care of us son! You’re babies are going to have a great life as a twin and I want you to know that you sharing be this story has helped me to understand what my parents really went through and it has been so surreal and I appreciate you so much. You’re kiddos have the best gift in this world being a twin!!

Colleen, I'm very grateful that you are blogging your experience with the twins in the NICU. As a NICU twin myself, I have heard stories about my brother and my birth from my parents and although they have never told me how hard it was for them, your vlogs are a wonderful insight in to what it must have been like for them. It makes my appreciate them more and just the fact that I am alive and healthy more. AND, since my cousin is a NICU nurse, it has made me appreciate her work even more as well. So thank you!
