A mother's attachment to her newborn twins was delayed due to a postpartal maternal illness. Attachment as affected by twin births and separation from the mother is reviewed. Nursing actions, designed to facilitate attachment, are described as encompassing the needs of the whole family. Use of these concepts in similar situations is discussed.
