Another great check up yesterday for Beth and the triplets. Her cervix is still holding strong and steady, which is great news to keep these babies in and keep them growing big and strong. Baby A is turning out to be our chubby one, he weighs in at 1lb 5 oz, Baby girl B is our little peanut weighing in at just 15 oz, and Baby C is right in the middle at 1lb 1oz. They are all very healthy and had good strong heartbeats, and the blood flow through the umbilical cord came back as normal on all 3, so that was great to hear. Beth also passed her gestational diabetes test, which was great news as when you are having multiples with a family history of diabetes, you are more prone to get it, but she is proving to make it seem like she was made to carry multiples! Bed rest is looking further and further away, which is a huge relief!
We also made a very hard choice at this last appointment, as we will now be moving all our care for Beth and the triplets over to Abbott, so that we are able to deliver down at Abbott Northwest Hospital, which is right across the street and connected to Children’s Hospital. We have been going to multiples birthing classes there, and have loved every second that we have been there. Next week we are going to be touring the Children’s Hospital and the NICU where or little peanuts will be spending some time growing strong. We made this decision not only to help us out, but more to make sure our babies are getting the best care possible, as it is not about us, but them. We are looking forward to our next appointment with our new set of doctor’s hopefully in the next week or so, and getting to know them better.
We have also started working on the nursery for the babies, as well as the room across the hall that will be our rocking/changing room for the babies. We will post after pictures once the rooms are finished, but here are some before pictures for now.
Thank you again so much for everything and we look forward to continue to update everyone with the great news!
Love,
S&B+3
