I'm 39 weeks with triplets currently and I'm so happy I made it this far. Going for a natural birth because my boys are in position for it. Already 5cm dilated and ready to rumble! I have a scheduled delivery next week when I turn 40 weeks if the boys don't come by then. So excited! My bump has grown so much I can't even stand on my own now. The babies make it even hard to turn around in bed! But its all worth it
How were your labour experiences?

That's fantastic! My first pregnancy was a singleton and I was induced. Probably something I would not do semi-voluntary again! Let's just leave it at that.
So excited for you!! Just a little bit longer and you will get to meet your bundles!!
Mine we're born at 29w5d and all weighed 3.5#..all boys too!
Definite c section. It was my 2nd.
I wouldn't have it any other way. Too risky. I'm at northwestern in Chicago which has a fabulous nicu program, so I very blessed to be here. My cousin had twins an d did the first with just an epidural, but the 1st flipped the 2nd, so she needed a c anyway.
A friend in TX had triplet girls. The 1st and 2nd were born naturally, though the 2nd needed forceps. The 3rd was finally taken by c, but didn't receive enough oxygen during delivery and does have problems. Same exact situation with 6 yr old triplet boys at my church, minus the forceps. The 2nd, born vaginally, is in a wheelchair.
I suggest a c for safety.
Two years, two losses and three IUIs...
We are having TRIPLETS!
EDD 1/26/16
GGB born November 2015!
