This feeling is a good thing. Both the girls are together, off of O2, no iv’s or bilibeds, just being babies. They got better fast which we are very happy about. However that means that all of the stuff we would have normally been able to adjust to is crashing in fast. The boys are emotional, we are getting up every 2 hours or so to pump, we are spending long days in the hospital, and doing lots of waiting with pretty healthy girls.
I think we are going to be a bit frightened to bring them home, away from constant observation and machines. I feel we may even revert to our first child fear status. But we will get over it, life will go on, and the craziness of a four child household will set in, in which case the “what the hell were we thinkings” will have time to set in. So now we are completely out of the trouble zone, at least in my mind. Now we just need the OK from the docs to bring them home and start our life.
