I’m about two weeks out from having a C-section to have my twins, and I think I’m a little too delusional

@rrruff There's no way to really understand what it's like to bring home 1 baby let alone 2!
Mine were in the NICU a few days which gave me a chance to recover while they were in the best of hands, so that's a good deal.
I think I hear what you are saying, and I think I get it and I don't think you are delusional. Take your pain meds from the c section and rest when you can. If there is anyone who can watch and snuggle babies while you nap get them to come those first few days. Before you know it you have made it through

@jakerocheleau That’s so reassuring! I’ll have my mom here for about a month and my sister for the first few days we’re home. I know they’ll be great help

@rrruff We hired a night nanny, if you can swing it, you should too

@holybelieverr I looked into that, but I don’t think we can do it financially. We’re living on just my husband’s income at the moment so I can stay home with the babies for the first year or so.

@rrruff You can try to negotiate their rates or just have a Persian come one or two night s a week. It’s going to be a very important tool for your mental health, unless you have a bad a$$ family member that is going to help you, try to find as many “extra handsome as you can!
