Babies arrival at home
Just a quick blog update on the girls. Everyone is doing well - of course lacking some sleep. Girls and boys getting along great too. Here are some pix of the girls.
Elaine!! I saw you in the newspapr yesterday and just called Nancy to be sure it was you. A BIG CONGRATULATIONS to all of you. This is so hard to believe. What a miracle, and everybody looks beautiful. Love, Joanna (LaSalle ACH if you forgot...)
OMGoodness! My friend just sent me your link! (we are from an online multiples group and I think she lives in the same state as you- IL) Anyway, what an amazing story and such a blessing! How wonderful! Congratulations on your beautiful girlies!
Cute kids! Last year my cousin had the exact same situation as you guys! She had spontaneous identical triplets, only they are all boys! Congrats! Glad you were able to make it through with no problems! What a blessing.
Congrats! So happy to see everyone at home and doing well. I'm right there with you with the sleep deprevation...although I know you have it 3 times as bad! :) I wish I had more energy to help...I hope to soon, so please let me know what I can do. I would love to make you a meal when we get a little more settled ourselves. God bless you all and Merry Christmas to all 7 of you!
What beautiful little ones you have...all 5 of them! I'm part of the Will County Mothers of Twins Club...so from all of us to all of you - many congrats! If you need a club full of other moms of multiples, we're at www.wcmotc.com - just a click away! :)
My name is Elaine and I am married to a wonderful husband, Dave. We currently have fabulous 19-month twin boys, Alexander and Nathan. I am also pregnant with naturally- conceived, identical triplet girls. We are so excited and feel so blessed! We already have the names picked out - and in order in my belly (Yep, I know, I already know who is who by their personality). Baby A is Emma Jolie, Baby B is Ainsley Anne and Baby C is Samantha Marie.
We started this blog when I was 31 weeks along. Our goal is to reach at least 34 weeks, but 36 would be better. Doctors typically do not want triplets to go longer than 36 weeks, due to an increase in risk to the babies and the mom. I made it to almost 38 weeks with the boys, so we are hoping it will not be an issue to reach our goal with the girls.
Our hope is that through this blog we can help others with multiples and learn from others as well. Please feel free to ask lots of questions and post your comments.
They are beautiful.
