28 week checkup

Yesterday was my 28 week checkup. I went back to my old OB-GYN (who has a little more experience with multiples) and I feel a lot better about it. I just don't feel like my other doctor was really into it. Dr. Suarez was glad to have us back and I feel like I actually have a "gameplan" now. He said I was doing really good and he will deliver the babies more than likely at 34 weeks if all goes well. He did say if I so much as blink the wrong way anytime after 30 weeks that he will go ahead and deliver them to prevent any fetal demise. I really want these guys to stay in for 34 weeks though. That has been my main goal. He said making it 28 weeks is a huge milestone...I just can't believe that in a matter of a couple weeks I could deliver! I was feeling a lot of stress about everything throughout this whole pregnancy but now it's mainly just excitement and anticipation. I do worry a lot about going back to work and who will watch the babies though. Everything is so up in the air. We are planning on taking things day by day and whatever happens, happens. I've always been a planner and this just seems like something I can't plan...just a wait and see type of thing.

The whole bedrest thing is getting really boring. I know I'm doing what's best for my boys, but man I wish I could work! I'm sure if I were working I'd rather be at home though! Being in the bed just gets really uncomfortable. I spend a lot of the day in the recliner in the living room. My husband has been so good throughout all this. I feel so sorry that he is busting his butt working so hard then coming home and dealing with me! He is really excited about the babies though and I can't wait to share this experience with him. We are scared to death, I don't know if anyone is ever truly ready for this rollercoaster we are about to be on! It's hard to believe that there are three babies in me getting ready to enter this world. It all becomes so much more real when I feel them kicking me (which they have been like crazy these past few days!) I just can't wait to see them and hold them. I was really bummed that I couldn't do my 4D ultrasound. With the holidays they couldn't get me in, then I was too far along to do it. She did switch it over and I got a little glimpse of Triplet B's face(Brady's). It was really hard to see though. They are so crowded in there! Everyone keeps telling me that it doesn't look like I'm having triplets, but they are there! I actually feel pretty good except for the muscle pains on my left side and not being able to sleep well.

I've been working on the nursery somewhat...mainly just washing clothes, blankets, towels etc. I'm still waiting on some things to come in, then I can piece it all together and clean up.

I go back to the doctor next Wednesday and hopefully I will know weights...I hope these little guys are beefing up!
