I had my twins at 34 weeks and they're coming up to 6 weeks old. I know that we have to be mindful of their corrected age as it relates to milestones, but does this essentially mean the last 6 weeks have counted for nothing?
I know it sounds silly but everyone keeps telling me it'll get easier, and feel better at the 12 week/3 month mark and now I just feel like we're nowhere near that milestone versus being halfway there in terms of their actual age.
Im struggling alot and finding it very depressing to think were only just 'starting' now so to speak at day 0.
Does anyone have any experience of this? If your babies were early did you correct to 40 weeks or 37? Did your babies hit milestones at the corrected age or were any early?
Thank you - a very tired twin mum.
