Tuesday 9/10/07 - Day Two
Even though we'd had a good few hours sleep, we were still up around 4am however. With the way we felt (and still being on a high) this was not a problem.
We had loads of people come and visit us today and I think this is where things started to go wrong. Although we were desperate to share these guys with all our families, we suffered on Tuesday night as I think we got about an hours sleep! Crying, crying crying non-stop, for no apparent reason - we eventually had to dispatch them to the 'laundry' just so we could calm ourselves down let alone them!
The thing is, with one baby, if it cries then it just cries and you can devote 100% of your time to trying to placate it. With two, you calm one down, the other one starts, then both cry at the same time and it just spirals from there. We were going to need to learn some 'twin techniques' very quickly!
Luckily, I've been able to stay in the hospital with Clair and could have stayed throughout however, someone had to get the home ready for their pending arrival. Fast forward to Wednesday....
