Our triplets were in the NICU for 4 and 5 months. In that time, only my mom, dad, and step mom really say the kids at all and got to hold them. My husband and I were at the NICU everyday from 7:00am to midnight. We only let a a few friends in to see them but never to hold them.

At this time you need to not worry about offending people. Let them know your kids are too fragile to handle visitors right now. If they want to see the kids maybe let them do that but no touching. You schedule the time not them.
