Triplet pregnancies - how far did you go?

Though 32 weeks is term, I'm wondering how far triplet moms actually went.
14 month old DD was born at 36w6w.  I slowly began dilating at 31w and by 36w was 3.5 cm.  Quickly got to hospital on 10.25 during the night and was already 7 cm.  She was born via c just an hour 15 after arrival.
Been doing great so far with the trips.  Cervix (problem previously b/c had 2 LEEPS) is still at 4.6 cm at 20w5w!  Even increased from 4.3 cm 2 weeks ago.  I thought this was going to be the major concern, but seems to be OK.
So, in reality, is this a normal measurement at this time and how far did you really go?  If you delivered before 32 weeks, what was the cause?
Just want to be educated on what really happens.
Thanks!

No periods due to 17 years of ballet and distance running after college.  Zero response to 2 months of Clomid, little response to Letrozole.  IUI left with 9 cysts = too many viable eggs due to age.  On to IVF.  Low dose of all meds still produced 37 mature eggs 12.6.11.  Froze due to overstimulation.  

FET #1.1 1.22.12 BFN.   FET #1.2 2.22.12=GRACE! (and a vanishing twin).  

Grace Katherine born 10.25.12 @ 36w6w 6#14oz 19.5".
FET #1.3 3.2013 BFN FET#1.4 4.2013 BFN. Never tried a fresh transfer.  Let's try, despite 10 still frozen.  
ER 6.26.13 27 mature eggs, slight overstim. ET   7.1.13 ectopic, FET 2.1  9.10.14   TRIPLETS!!
