I am still tandem nursing, although without my husband's help I'm not sure it would be happening. It might work for now, but I'm also thinking of trying some other things (one at a time, one with a bottle of breast milk etc) just to see what works for us.
We got them on a schedule at the hospital, and so far they are doing pretty well! Sometimes still confused as to when it's night and when it's day :) Camden is quite a spitty baby, but we don't think it's reflux...just a loose sphincter muscle from being a bit premature. They both have quite the distinguishable personality already.
Jack is doing better each day. He's definitely been acting out and doing things he has NEVER done before which makes me sad...but he isn't directing it at the boys so that's good. I know it will just take time. He's such a sensitive little man and I know we've rocked his world.
Today we woke up to snow! So Trev and Jack spent some time out there and then inside we painted a bird house! Trying to keep the fun up for Jack and keep his schedule regular.
Here are a bunch of pictures from the last several days. Thank you all so much for your prayers...they have been felt.
As we settle in to this new crazy, continue praying for rest, patience and wisdom. Thank you for loving on us!!

ReplyDeleteThat is exciting! Congrats! Jack will adjust soon I am sure. =)Those boys are going to have a lot of fun together!
ReplyDeleteI am so happy that your new normal/crazy life is all settling in at home...no more trips to the NICU for mommy and leaving Jack at home or the twins at the hospital...
ReplyDeleteWill be praying for the nursing/feeding to hit a normal groove...

ReplyDeleteHey sweet lady-
ReplyDeleteYou guys are doing great and yes your schedule will surely ease up as time goes by! One thing I have learned since the girls is just as you settle into a routine they change it up but thats kinda how us girls are..we like to keep people guessing! The boys are thriving being at home surrounded by love and thats so nice to see after a difficult start..your doing great and with an awesome partner by your side anything is possible...YAY for wonderful husbands! Hoping for as much sleep as possible and praying for patience and wisdom!
Take care and much love,
