I was put on bedrest at 19 weeks and managed to keep my
girls in until 28 weeks, so that was about 2 1/2 mos of
bedrest. I'm so glad that I took it seriously because
it literally saved my girls' lives (they are now
perfectly healthy happy 3 yr olds). So I echo what
everyone else says: hang in there, it is totally worth
it. I found it very helpful to have a mini-fridge and
microwave right in the room with me, you can get them
pretty cheaply from Sears or Target and they deliver
(or probably more cheaply from craigslist). After the
girls were born we continued to use them in the nursery
to store breastmilk and warm bottles so we got a lot of
utility out of them.As for night nurses, we had Niccole
Blalock who was amazing: http://www.doulabynature.net/
I can't speak highly enough of her, a true
lifesaver.Good luck and hang in there-Kim

love our twin feeding table! If you have room for it,
it's been a lifesaver for us... just pull up a chair
opposite your twins and feed back and forth. plus our
girls can play with each other and with toys while we
do other things int eh kitchen and they are happy
there. would highly
recommend!http://www.justmultiples.com/twin-table.html

I am in the same boat as you - except that we only have
twins, no toddler to get down as well. Recently our
twins have begun waking each other up and then it's
been hard to get them back down. The only thing that's
worked for us so far is separating them - we did put a
pack & play in our room and though we put them down in
the nursery togehter when one wakes up (assuming it's
after we have gone to bed) we bring that one into our
room, rock that twin for a little bit til asleep
(sometimes let them fall asleep in our bed) but then
always transfer to the the pack and play. From then on
any night waking by one doesn't interfere with the
other even though our rooms are next door. so it's an
option that could work for you. that said it is pretty
annoying to have a kid in your room all the time. and i
do worry that they aren't learning to tune each other
out, especially since they will ultimately need to
share a room. i too lean toward attachment parenting
but am going to give cry it out a try this coming
weekend. anyway, long story short, you are not alone,
and for what it's worth separating them does seem to
work, but sadly also feels like just a temporary
solution... :(good luck!!!
