Awesome, sounds like everyone is doing fine. And Mum is just being protective over the kids, depending on her personality before this, she may or may not get use to you touching them. As said, got crap knowledge on how to handle babies, but I'd say wait another 24 hours and then handle the babies again for just a little more time. You keep doing this and Mum will slowly get use to you handling them. As long as she doesn't (god forbid) eat one, she's doing good. Sounds like she's doing good, taking care of them and playing the mom role well. Congratz.
