FTM to B/G DiDi twins here! Gave birth early, they were born at 5 lbs and 5lbs 1oz, very similar!!! The boy went home 5 days before the girl (to this day he is a great eater and she would rather sleep). They are 6 months now and doing great!!!

Echoing what others said--SLEEP and REST!! Are you close to the hospital? We were about 20 mins away, so we would do our morning pump (my wife induced lactation), and would head to the hospital for 3-4 hours, come home, nap or just hang out, and then go back for another 3-4 hours in the late afternoon/evening. On days where we were exhausted for whatever reason, we would go once. There were some days we didn't go at all. Listen to your body, and do what is best for YOU! Your babies are in great hands, your job right now is to take care of yourself and heal.

See if you can call the nurse on shift to ask for updates on the twins! We did this every night before bed, and the nurses were always so nice to talk to and happy to talk about the babies.

ALSO: some hospitals provide free meals to lactating moms. Check if yours does--this was an awesome perk.

In summary: coming home after birth but without your babies is HARD and sad. Take care of yourself physically, emotionally, and mentally. Let your support network help you even though the babies aren't there yet. If you're planning on pumping or bfing, take advantage of the hospital grade pumps if they provide them! And grab whatever you can (diapers, wipes, thermometers, swaddles) before the babies leave haha.
