26 weeks

So far, so good! As of now, it doesn't look like bed rest is going to come anytime too soon (knock on wood). I had another growth/anatomy ultrasound almost 2 weeks ago and at the same time there was a  fluid evaluation (for identical girls) and i have another fluid eval this week. So as of about a week and a half ago the babies weights were:

baby 1 (girl): 1 lb, 2 oz. -5th percentile
baby 2 (girl): 1 lb, 5 oz- 20th percentile
baby 3 (boy): 1 lb, 8 oz- 50th percentile

So, its nice knowing at this point they're probably even bigger! I am currently measuring as if i were 35 weeks with a singleton! I'll have my glucose done again at 28 weeks and i will also have another growth/anatomy ultrasound that same week. As of now, i have been going back and forth between the OB/GYN and MFM (high risk) where I'm just getting routine checks (my weight/blood pressure, babies heartbeats, and checking my cervix) weekly. I've currently gained between 30-35 lbs!

Still no names decided!!

The nurseries are currently in the middle of being painted!

Other than just updating all of the facts, this pregnancy has been very easy (for a triplet pregnancy). I have a hard time breathing or standing/walking for a long time, but I really feel like I can't complain- I'm scared to speak too soon, but I really have had no problems with the babies and that is the only thing I can ask for!  I know I should probably be on my feet less and take it even easier... =)

Adam and I are still both full of all sorts of mixed emotions: I am really excited most of the time and then I have my nights where I just totally question my ability to take care of 4 children, a household, be a good wife, and still keep my own sanity and happiness in check.

k, my mac is suddenly spazzing out.... im going to just publish this and finish updating soon!!!

  1. It's getting closer!! You will some how be able to manage it all girl, so stay positive, yes it is going to be a little over wheliming at times, but you have a good head on your shoulders and family support to help you! God wouldn't give you anything you can't handle!:) Glad everything is going so well I hope it stays that way with the rest of the pregnancy & after these 3 little ones are welcomed into this world!
