Going home today....with a triplet!

EverAfterinMi · October 2008

Hi girls..

Just popping on real quick as I wait to be discharged. The triplets were born on Monday 10/20 and I am getting released today and we get to bring one of our boys.. Nathan, home with us! He's was in the isolette the first two nights and has been out the last two. He passed all his tests this morning and say he's ready! He weight 5 pounds 5 oz at birth and last night was 5 pounds 1 ounce.

I am so darn happy I get to go home with a baby as I didn't expect to so of course I've been bawling all morning. And then again, now I am bawling more at the thought of leaving the other two. Ben is still to tiny but he is eating like a champ. Alex is still having issues getting the fluid out of his lungs, but is doing much better. Both are in the next step from home pod in the NICU and they hope in the next week the other two can follow!

I didn't realize how hard this was going to be. And I can't believe how attached I am to them already!

Seriously, you are amazing! I can't believe how long you made it and how big and healthy those boys of yours are! Congrats on mommyhood... maybe you can ease into it a little by starting with taking Nathan home

Oh how wonderful! What a great job you did, mama!

I know how hard it is to be able to take one home and have another (in your case 2 others) stay in the NICU. Stay strong and your boys will all be reunited together before you know it. ((((HUGS))))

Awww...many congrats to you. So glad you are able to take one baby home, I hope the other boys can come home soon!

Congratulations! You did awesome! I don't want to leave my girls here. I'm dreading Sunday. Your other boys will be home soon as well!
