Pregnant after IF

AW: 32 weeks!

I can't believe we've made it to 32 weeks, which is the average length of a triplet pregnancy.  We went into this journey fully aware of the risks and always expecting the worst case scenario.  Fortunately, we've had very little problems along the way and I feel so lucky for that.

MFM has schedule a c-section for March 4th, which is around 37wks, but my last, personal goal to reach is 35wks.  I'm at the point where I'm just trying to take it day by day, but I think I could manage another 3 wks if these boys (and my body) allow me to, lol.

    I just gave you a little shout out in the 'how are you feeling' post:-) 

    I just went back and read your shout out.  Thank you so much.  You and the other girls on this board mean the world to me, even if I don't "know" you. 

    To be honest, I've got the same complaints as everyone else does.  But I've been staying away from adding to posts about "how do you feel" and such because, even though I had the same complaints with my singleton, I just can't think the same way with these guys.  I've got 3 babies that will be born early and could have several weeks of NICU time if they're born too soon.  That puts things in perspective for me and is why I try not to voice my complaints too much.  I've got to continue enduring all of the discomfort for as long as possible and am happy to do so.

    I am so proud of you for making it to 32weeks! You are totally a bada!! I hope you can make it another 3 weeks, but if not you should totally be proud of yourself mama! Has your doc been checking you for dilation?

    I was checked 2 wks ago, when I went to Triage for cramping.  Cervix was still nice and long and completely closed.  I was having minor contractions, but nothing to be concerned about since they weren't affecting my cervix.
