[♪♪] [Streaming Well] [Twins and Multiples - Bonding with your babies] For some parents, [Dr Carol Cooper, General Practitioner] bonding with their newborns seems to be an instant thing. But please don't beat yourself up about it if it doesn't happen that way for you. For starters, your attention is divided between your new babies, so you won't be able to give them the same amount of cuddles and eye contact as parents of just 1 baby can. Bonding can take longer for parents of twins or more, but it will happen. Make good use of any help offered to you so you can spend time with each baby individually and get to know each one as a little person. And that's much more fun than doing chores. Using different colored blankets or dressing them differently or painting one of their toenails will help you distinguish between your babies quickly even during those sleep-deprived moments.

[♪♪] [Streaming Well] [Gemelli - Come stabilire un legame con loro] [Dottoressa Carol Cooper, Medico generico] Per alcuni genitori stabilire da subito un legame con i propri bambini è naturale. Ma non createvi alcun problema se per voi non è così. Innanzitutto, la vostra attenzione è divisa tra più neonati per cui non potete fargli le stesse coccole e avere lo stesso contatto visivo di un genitore che ha solo un bimbo. Stabilire un legame con i gemelli può richiedere più tempo, ma ci riuscirete. Accettate aiuto da chiunque ve ne offra in modo da poter trascorrere più tempo con un solo bimbo per volta e conoscere ciascuno di loro. Sarà molto più piacevole che faticoso. Usate lenzuola di colori differenti o vestiteli in maniera diversa o mettete dello smalto su un'unghietta del piede; ciò vi aiuterà a riconoscerli anche nei momenti in cui siete molto stanchi.
