I read your follow up note today and am glad you went into the hospital to get checked out. You are right, better safe than sorry. I had at least a dozen or so trips in there, some resulted in medications, some resulted in a "take it easy" lecture and the last one resulted in my babies being delivered 5 days later. So you never know, it's best to go to make sure. You are entering that stage right now at 26+ weeks where a lot of women struggle. I just wanted to give you some encouragement and tell you that if you are getting uncomfortable and impatient about carrying these babies much longer, it is NORMAL. I posted an "I want to give up" post on the forum when I was about 27 weeks. I was just miserable, I remember just wanting to quit. It was reassuring to me to know that other women had struggled with the same thiing. So if it gets harder before it gets better (better being seing your beautiful babies), keep trucking and post on TC for some support! Take care, Hey Jenell this is Julie from the triplet connection.
