Christmas Eve babies

in Pregnant after IF
Well, my trio decided that they just could not wait! I started contracting tuesday afternoon and things progressed quickly. Went in for a c-section around 4pm and my babes were delivered shortly after. They were only 27+2, so we have a long road ahead. But for now, they are stable. We have 2 boys and 1 sweet girl!
Me: 33 DH: 36 Unexplained IF
First pregnancy - DS 01-Apr-09;
3rd cycle Clomid/IUI after 2 years TTC

    Yay, I'm so happy for you!!! I know you obviously wanted them to stay in longer, and that would have been ideal. But what a wonderful Christmas present! And I'm sure they are in great hands. So glad they are stable and doing well. And congrats on staying team green all that time... You are awesome, mama!
