I am pregnant with triplets as well, and I am 32 weeks. We are expecting two girls and one boy. I understand exactly how you are feeling and my doctors visits are now up to 3 times a week. I can't breath most of the day, and have recently started with cramping at night. One of my babies (my son) is breeched and I feel every movement 'down below'. Not fun at all. But like you...I am just hanging in there for them. It will be worth it all. Keep up the fight....You're reward is coming! I stumbled across your website today and wish I would have done so earlier.

When you posted you felt as though someone kicked you in the crotch, I had no idea what you were talking about until about 1 week ago. My God, I can't even stand up without me feeling I am going to go into labor. I am in a lot of pain also. I just passed 32 weeks and my doc wants to go to 35w4d. Yeah, right. Anyway, you are doing awesome and you are so close. This will be over soon and you will be able to get your body back. The pain from the surgery is a little tough, just stay on top of the pain with the pain killers. I have had abdominal surgery before and I let the pain catch up to me. Not good. Please keep all of us posted at TC. We are all pulling for you. You are already past the most important milestone.

Your dad let us know what was going on. Jenell you are amazing. I think I would have to go to the nut house if I had to go through what your are. Just remember YOU get an additional three times the hugs, three times the kisses and three times the love. You are truly a lucky mom. Hang in there. sue We missed you at the family picnic.
