"I am so glad you are awake Mommy! I am happy, are you?".
That was the first thing Emily said to me when I came downstairs for dinner last night. Of course it made me cry. Every time I think of her these days I tear up. Those words really got to me because for the last week, I have been pretty much upstairs in bed taking it day by day. She is definitely noticing the new changes and as always it breaks my heart. I miss playing with her and taking her places.
I am going to keep this post short and will post more tomorrow after my appointment with the Perinatologist. I went to see my OB yesterday (thank you Aunt Lynnie so much for coming out to help with Emily... she had a blast) and told him all about my misery. He told me nicely to tough it out and stressed again what a trooper I have been for making it this far to 34 weeks with triplets. I don't feel like a trooper! I have hardly dilated anymore. I think he said that I was 1 1/2 cm and 50% effaced. Tomorrow is the FINAL visit to my Peri. They are going to attempt to measure them to estimate weights but my guess is that it will be tough because they are so squished in there. I will try to update tomorrow night!

Just wanted to let you know that you are an amazing mom and that you are in my thoughts & prayers daily!
Love,

I ditto Staci's comment! and I ditto the dr. on the trooper part. Not every one is strong enough mentally or emotionally or physically etc. to carry and then care for triplets. God knew what He was doing when He picked you. He knew that you were the best choice for the job. And that you'd be the one to be able to get through it and still be and amazing mommy to that 2 year old little girl of yours. Not every mommy would feel bad about not spending time with their children, I know a lot of mom's who can't wait for a break. Any way, all that rambling to say that I really think you're doing great!!! Hang in there... you're in the home stretch! 8^)
Love and prayers,
Sharon
You ARE so special, Christy, and Emily is SO special and the triplets will be too. All will be good! Take care!
Love you.

HI! Just wanted to say hi!! You have made it really far!!You go girl!Your baby girl is beautiful!! I can't wait to hear your update!
I am new to blogging and have twins! I am also friends with Lani.Please stop by when you can
You certainly are a trooper! I know how you feel though, in both aspects. I was so stinkin miserable toward the end that i just wanted them out, but i knew i needed to keep them in there as long as possible! You will probably be bringing them all right home with you! I feel the same way with my daughter, who was 2 when my triplets were born. There are days when i just cry because it's so hectic, and i know she was just "thrown" into this, never asking to have her life taken over by 3 babies...but, she's making it, along with daddy and I, and so will your daughter. I wont lie, it's gonna be tough in so many aspects, but the first time you see her helping you with the babies, or singing to them, or playing with them when they're older, you'll know everything will be OK. :O) Hang in there.
