UPDATE #2....BABIES ARE HERE!!! Asking for those wonderful LIF prayers **UPDATE**
Update 7/2/2011: This morning at 30 weeks exactly, our triples were born via C-Section. Lucas is 3lbs 1oz, Brayden is 3lbs 0oz and our little trouble maker Adrianna is 1lb 14oz. All three babies are doing AMAZING!!! The staff at Good Sam have been nothing short of fabulous and OMG the staff in the NICU is a god sent. I feel completely comfortable putting the lives of my 3 precious babies in their hands. The C-section was scheduled at 9:30am and we were only 30 minutes behind schedule. The section went perfect, a very easy 45 minute start to finish procedure (including taking out a cerclage). I was very shocked how fast he procedure was and I still cant believe how smoothly everything went. My DH was able to go right away with the babies to the NICU and took tons of pictures for me. I went into recovery and then down to maternity. By 4pm I was feeling good enough to get out of bed and be wheeled into the NICU (6 hours earlier than I expected...they originally told me 12 hours after my procedure). The babies are all doing AMAZING and I am so proud of each and every one of them. Although it is extremely hard to see them with tubes and wires attached to them, we were able to talk to them and touch them. Within the next couple of days, once they have the incubated tubes that go down their mouth removed I will be able to hold them. I CANNOT WAIT!!!. Adrianna is doing just as well as her 2 brothers...if not even a little better. We are so proud of her. She is such a peanut but so strong and such a fighter. Please continue to keep my little ones in your thoughts and prayers. It will still be a long NICU stay here...atleast 5 weeks we were told. Your prayers and FMs have been amazing and they definitey have been working!
One last thing...we received a bit of a surprise today during delivery. We always thought each of the babies were fraternal because that is what we have always been told. Well I have been getting sonograms WEEKLY and they always checked each of their placentas. I have no idea how this was missed, but it looks like the 2 boys actually shared a placenta and they are IDENTICAL. I cannot believe this, but it was definitely a pleasant surprise.
THANKS AGAIN!!!!!
Update 7/1/2011: Thank you girls so much for all of your prayers, FMs and and sweet words!! They all meant so much to. So I have been monitored everyday since Tuesday (when I posted the original post). This morning, we noticed the beginning of reverse blood flow to our little girl. So they actually admitted me to the Hospital ( I am at good Samaratian) and we have a scheduled C-Section at 9:30am tomorrow morning!! I am definitely nervous, but glad that we made it to atleast the 30 week mark. All of my doctors are very reassuring and keep telling me that all our babies are going to do fine out of utero and the NICU staff here is amazing. It will be a long couple of weeks back and forth to the NICU, but I guess the only good thing is I have been mentally preparing myself for this for a couple of months now knowing that there is a very good chance these triplets will come earlier than expected. So just wanted to keep everyone updated and ask for prayers and easy c-section vibes. I will definitely post another update once all these little ones are here.
So I am not a huge poster on this site (definitely Lurk all day long), but I just haven't been posting, I guess because i have been superstitious. Anyways, after 2 previous MC's, I am now currently 29weeks 3days pregnant with triplets . So here is where I ask for all of your prayers. Since about 16weeks, our little girl has been measuring smaller than her two brothers. Here brothers have always been in the 60-70 percentile while the girl was anywhere between the 15-30 percentile. The Doctors were not too concerned, bc they said some people just make small babies and myself and my husband are both small, so they said she could just be a small girl. For the last few weeks I have been having weekly appointments with my perintalogist because our little girl has had intermittent blood flow through her umbilical cord, meaning her blood flow hasn't been consistent, and this is what is causing her to grow smaller than her brothers. The doctor told me, when they notice that she has not grown at all in 2 weeks, her blood flow becomes reverse or she starts showing signs of distress, we would be delivering asap. Well today I had an appointment and in the last 2 weeks our little girl has only grown 1oz. At 29 weeks 3days our little boys are both over 3lbs and our little girl is just under 2lbs. But they were very concerned because she only grew an ounce. So now I need to go back everyday this week to keep an eye on her blood flow and I will probably be admitted into the hospital this weekend (due to the long weekend). The second her blood flow becomes reverse, we will be doing a C-section that day. I please ask for your thoughts and !!!! I hope I can keep these little ones in me for atleast another week or two. And I hope she grows just a little more. I would love for her to be over two pounds. they will keep them all in as long as her blood flow doesnt become reverse. I am so scared and upset right now. They have all been doing amazing this whole pregnancy and I have been doing great for carrying triplets...and now this happens. I am just not ready for them to be delivered yet and I am not ready to see her at only 2lbs...she is going to be so small. Please pray that she grows and I can keep them in until at least 31weeks (only a week and a half away).
Thank you so much. Like I said I have seen the power of LIF prayers work so many times of this board, so I please ask for you girls to keep me in your minds. Thank you thank you thank you!!!
