I had twins last August and my baby B had to spend some time in NICU. My husband bonded with him straight away, but it took me some time. Like you, he felt less "mine" than he did when he was on the inside, especially because his twin sister got to be with me straight away. Anyway, thank you for always sharing vulnerable moments with us. It helps bring awareness to so many varying issues!melindarosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10469502937215867518noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3552008288188142238.post-7957685250430930112007-07-17T05:04:00.000-05:002007-07-17T05:04:00.000-05:00You are all in my thoughts.

All my thoughts will go toward his strengthening quickly and coming home soon. Take care of yourself and the bonding w/ Landon will come in its own time. My son felt like a stranger for the first couple weeks and we didn't have your hardships to deal with.

It didn't help that day 2 or 3 your hormones go insane. I was hysterically sobbing all day long. Drink as much water as you possibly can - that really helps with the crying and the major leg swelling that you will no doubt experience, especially if you're standing a lot and sitting up in a hard ICU chair for the next week or two. I have been there and wouldn't wish it on anyone.
