Tamagotchi Friends Won't connect?

[BunnyBee]

I have 2 tamagotchi friends and they were actually connecting just fine up until last night. One of them needed to have the batteries changed and since I changed the batteries my tamagotchis refuse to connect. I've tried for hours. I've even resorted to restarting them both and that hasn't helped either. I'm not sure what the problem is. And I'm getting annoyed and feel like just throwing them both in the trash. The only reason I have 2 is so they would connect. :/

And before anyone asks both tamagotchis have 5 hearts available for bumping so it's not that.

Any help would be great. I just bought the second tamagotchi yesterday :/

(p.s this is my first time posting so if I posted in the wrong spot or something don't eat me.)

Anyone?

I heard that there's a glitch where Friends sometimes won't connect after the batteries were changed, but I don't know much about it. Have you tried taking the batteries out and putting them back in again? Maybe they'll connect again.

Another thing! I couldn't figure it out when I first got mine to connect the big heart that pops up has one side filled and the other isn't yes? well in order to connect you have to make a full heart with the two of them, press the (A) button on one of them and then hit ( and they should be able to bump!
