Had my first ultra sound today. Its triplets. TRIPLETS. I didn't know you could have triplets naturally. (yes I realize I am dumb) I have always just been a lurker here, never even made a user name... but realized I was going to need a LOT of advice.
Re: Shock.
They brought a ton of people into my room to look at the ultra sound because there were so amazed! I am the first spontaneous triplets my doc has ever had, and he has been doing this for 15 years! He told me I was in great health so, while I will need close monitoring, he can't for see any problems. They all had strong heart beats
He thinks two are identical.

Yes I realize that, and I meant no offense. I was just in shock and there are nice ways to help me learn that
Thanks! I will be sure to use the right terminology now (Plus I am learning a lot about it now... and will continue to for quite some time :P)

Some people are SO touchy. I can't believe someone would be upset by you using the word "natural" to describe your pregnancy.
Besides, it doesn't mean their baby is unnatural, it just means their means to get pregnant was with a little help. Geez.
Anyway, congratulations! I'm jealous. DH and I wanted twins (kill 2 birds with one stone since we want to be done having kids before I turn 30), but unfortunately twins don't run in either side of our family. Good luck!! I'm sure once the shock wears off you'll be triple excited!! Also, that's AWESOME you got away without morning sickness. I've heard sometimes pregnancies with multiples are double the sickness.:)
