Two appointments in two days!

It has been a busy two days with doctors appointments! I had one with my peri yesterday and then today I saw my OB. Yesterday at the peri all went well with the babies and my cervix is still "a mile long" at 4.3cm. These are the weights of the babies at 31 weeks:
Baby boy A is 3lbs 13oz
Baby girl B is 3lbs 10oz
Baby girl C is 3lbs 11oz
Let me add that is 11 pounds and 2 oz of baby!!! Grow babies grow! These weights range in the 48-5oth percentile so we are very pleased with that.

Today my OB measured my belly and I am measuring that of a woman who is 45 weeks pregnant! OUCH! No wonder I feel like my skin is ripping apart. They also did yet another U/S to check for the fetal heart tones. The tech was so sweet b/c she snuck in some 3D pics of the trio. Unfortunately we couldn't get a good one on Baby C but we got the other two. We also observed on the 2D part of my scan that all my babies have hair but Baby A, our little boy, has the most! Go figure!! My OB also decided to do the FFN (fetal fibronectin test) today. We should hear the results by tomorrow. My guess is that it will come back negative. I really feel that I will make it to our c-section date (which is 4 weeks from today). Sorry if this is short. I have antsy little Emily crawling all over me as I type!

I just came here from Multiples and More. Wow, I'm so impressed. Your three are already bigger than my twins were at birth, and they've always been healthy.

From one mom of multiples to another, way to go on keeping those babies healthy!

I just came across your blog from Multiples and More and I'm so encouraged to see someone who's made it as far as you! We are at the beginning of our triplet journey (I'm 9 weeks pregnant) and am nervously excited about the road ahead. I love your blog and will keep checking back for updates! Congratulations on the baby's weight, that is a lot of baby in there!
