This translated article is based on a conversation with Leila Green. It was released for length and clarity.
I remember a paralyzed shock from behind me when I discovered that I would be The presence of three twins. My husband and I went to perform an examination for a heartbeat examination, sitting in the same waiting room that we previously sat at the times we discovered that I had aborted.
Lie on the table to be wiped by the photographer, I can say that something has ended. I tried very much not to be afraid, and I remember the bad news that we made Latest pregnancy.
The photographer turned the screen to see it. “We have pulses,” he said. “There are three of them.”
I have struggled with guilt
We have planned for you to do You have a section c With 28 doctors and nurses in the room – a team and a team for each of the children.
Although I knew in advance that the children would be Transfer directly to NicuI was not aware of the shock to be separated from my children. We were a team – the three in me – for several months, then they were just transferred. I was mistaken.
A few days after their birth, two of my child had to be taken to a different hospital, while the other child stayed in the original hospital. This was the worst day of my life. I just did not imagine that this would be my start of motherhood.
Five weeks after their birth, I brought two children home, leaving my child, who needs more support in the hospital. This is the point that The guilt was avoided For the first time.
I cannot be in more than one place at one time. If I fed children at home, I didn’t feed the child in the hospital. There was not enough mother to wrap. It does not seem to be a winning option – I felt that I was always leaving someone down.
Finally, in nearly six weeks, all my children were at home. My husband and I were new to paternity and motherhood I didn’t know what we were doing With one child, not to mention three.
We rented help
We created a bed and a variable station in the basement and the top floor.
Feed occurred, a mixture of breast milk and formula, every three hours. They all fed at the same time. I was breastfeeding while the other two were feeding from a bottle in bed. We used a gauze blanket to support the bottle in place for the second in the skies, and they arranged that they could move away when they no longer wanted.
I had huge amounts of anxiety about feeding times. Whenever someone wanted to visit him, I tried to make sure they came during feeding, so I was not doing it alone.
Since a very early age, we had a strict bedtime routine and a night tall schedule – something suggested by the motherhood nurse we rented to help us for a week when we all got home. We were ashamed and flexible because anything would give us a minute for more sleep worth doing.
We tried to keep them all at the same table overnight, which means when one woke up to feeding, we all feed them. Otherwise, we will return to sleep just as another wake up.
Those moments in the middle of the night, when I was exhausted and I wanted to sleep – I felt I would break. I remember the times when one rolls or hit each other in the face, and everyone awakens-destroying the soul.
You need 6 numbers to cover day care costs
One of our best decisions was to rent a nanny to come from 6 am to 9 am in the morning a week. In this way, I knew, even if you spent a terrible night, I can join sleep if there is.
Once children became first place, I began to consider the possibility of returning to work. I participated in the establishment of a company alongside my brother. I have worked that I will have to get at least 85,000 pounds (about 109400 dollars) just to break the nursery.
Although I know that many women would do this for several reasons, I decided that nothing was ready to do it.
My career was an integral part of my identity, so I had to go through the stages of sadness until I finally accepted. It was a great cost that I paid in three twins.
Since we live in the United Kingdom, we qualified for 15 hours of caring for free children in September 2024 when children were 2.
I am using time for exercise and Building a brand new“F *** Mum Gailt”, which will host mothers’ events My mom’s guilt.
It was amazing to have time and brain to think about building and create a brand from zero – to get time to do something for me and for other mothers.
Now that they are young, we face a new set of challenges.
On the last day, the three of them worked on how to push a brother over the stairs gate at their bedroom to go to the basement, and pull a chair to a higher cabinet to get cookies, then returned them to distribution to the backward two. It seems as if they were wandering on me.
The uncomfortable diseases were challenge. Whatever one of them, they all get. In theory, they are recorded in 15 hours of childcare, but they seem to be rarely there because they are always sick.
Most of the time, I am just firefighting – sorting everything to do. Of course, I think about all the things I failed, but when I have moments to think in the past two years, I consider that I have created three children at the same time. Now I am raising three young children. This is very incredible.
