World = Upside Down

Re: World = Upside Down
Once again, thank you for the replies. I can't remember all the questions, but I will try.
I don't feel like I'm showing much more than I did with Meg, but I have a little extra baggage this time. In the evenings its hard to hide. They are all 4.3-5cm from crown to rump so, yeah, there is a lot in there apparently. Guess I won't be gaining just teh 15lbs that my MW told me I could.
Yes, I was referred the book When youre expecting Twins Triplets or Quads and I'm ordering it now
I just off the phone with Janice, one of my midwives and I am so sad I won't be with them. She is so nice and helpful and wants to keep in touch through it all.
And after talking with you guys, a friend with a blood clotting disorder, and another insider, I think we may switch from Paek to either Wall or Walker. Walker has the same expertise as Paek in this special surgery. But you'd think that if I needed it, I would get someone who is good at it anyway, right? DH saw Dr. Walker's picture when we were there and was creeped out, so I thought no way, but then my insider told me that he is the most personal of all of them and their #1 choice with Dr. Wall as a close 2nd. Dr. Paek seemed very well educated, but rigid and very technical. I am used to my happy midwives who are there to talk and chat and make me feel great. DH and I need to talk before I make any changes of course.
I still feel like I need to wake up from this dream.
Steal my kids picture or pretend they are yours, I will find where you live and ship all of their dirty diapers to your doorstep. Promise.
What an amazing pregnancy!!! Congratulations to you and your man...I hope you have three sticky and healthy babies. And please touch your feet while you can!!!

Holy sh*t! I can't even imagine the million and one emotions you must be feeling right now. I'm speechless. Congratulations!
Just remember, you can handle A LOT more than you think. Think back on the things that you've been through, and know that you can do this! Whenever I get scared and freaked out, this is my mantra.
Big hugs to you.
Wow Wow Wow (one for each baby!) That is SO not what I was expecting!
How amazing and exciting (and terrifying)

I was working with the midwives up until I had to change at 6 months when I developed too many complications. The midwives did keep in touch and even visited me in the hospital. I changed to Dr. Wells as my OB and Dr. Wall as MFM. He made the change really easy because he is so calm, smart and makes you feel you can do it. He has a way of giving you the facts without making you twist up inside with worry. Dr. Wells was fantastic as well if you need to add an OB to the mix. MFM may just choose to deliver you regardless.
WOW - totally speechless - what a crazy day for you and an amazing adventure to look forward to. You are strong and will be a great mommy to these 3 and to Meg.
congrats to your family and we want to hear all about the family reaction!

You will be an amazing family of 6. I'd love to see your families faces when you tell them! Enjoy this very special Christmas & your last one with just one child - it will be a busy one with 4 next year!!!!
Oh wow oh wow oh wow! Amy, that is so wonderful. I will totally keep my mouth shut [We know a lot of people in common in "real life"...]
I am so excited for you. If you ever need help, I'm local. I know you have a great support system but if you ever need more, page me or email me.
Yay!!!
What a miracle - this is truly amazing!
Congratulations & best wishes to you on this amazing journey. Happy & healthy 9 months to you and those 3 babies!!!
I'm simply speechless Amy....and that takes a lot.
I'm scared for your health, like anyone would be...but mostly - HOLY CRAP WOMAN!!!!!! You're having triplets!!!!!!!!!! What a wonderful, wonderful Christmas surprise!!!!!!!

I'm so late into this but OMG!!!! How amazing! CongratsQ! I bet you look like a chershire cat with a perma-grin on your face!
I too had tears in my eyes and let out a little squeal when I read your post. Audrey was in the other room and said, "What's wrong Mommy, You crying?" Yes, I was but in a good way I told her!
I had to run outside and tell DH too. I said remember Amy, who did A's newborn pics........? 
He said wow, all you guys need to do something special for them when the babies come! We all can keep you guys fed for months! lol
I bet you are scared and excited and so are all of us for you! We are all here for you every step of the way!
What a Christmas miracle!
BTW.... when you tell family.. I think it'd be funny to first tell them you are PG, like you 1st planned with the plums etc... then after they asborb that, then tell them there is 3 of them! lol I can't wait to hear how it goes!
I'm going to make an AWESOME big brother.

Thanks for your kind words. Your hubby is so nice 
Zista! Lady, you need to post here! Join the Monday TTC/pregnancy check in. You will love it here! I'm scared to tell my 1st tri friends because it really hasn't sunk in. I'm sure I will in the next day or two. I really need to join the multiples board too.
