As you all know i lost triplets at 19wks in Oct 06, Now im 21wks with triplets and i going crazy thinking that the next 3 wks are going to drag I get the steriod shot at 24wks and i know that is a safer point to be than 21wks The littlest pain im thinking" Whats that" one day they are low OUCH But today they are very high that it hurts to breath! I just cant win, to to it all Cerrys will not go in her cot and when shes in bed with me i cant move cos im like a bull trying to roll over plus she only want me sorry for ranting ladies im just feeling sorry for myself!

Yes you are feeling sorry for yourself and forgive my bluntness but you're just going to have to buck up and take it. If you think it's bad now. . .you're tripling normal pregnancy weight gain and you'll be in a world of hurt at 24 weeks. You also need to stop saying things like it's "safer" once they get their steroid shot. . .and instead think "it's safest the longest they can be in there." If you can carry to 33 weeks--great. . .but if you can carry to 35 or 36 that's even better.

You are right to be paranoid and I can only hope that it makes you slow down and REST!!!!

I know thanks ladies ( any chance you could come over for a holiday at mine Val i think i need you here 24/7

That's my job! Don't worry come on here anytime and I'll give you a little reality to get you refocused. Carrying multiples is really tough.

keep hanging in there sarah, you are doing great! i am looking forward to getting past 24 weeks myself, it cant get here soon enough. Then i am looking forward to 28 weeks (the neonatologist that i work with cant wait for me to get there as well....he says that i drive him crazy and give him gray hairs...) after 28 weeks, comes 34, where i will feel even better, and ultimately 38-40weeks which is my goal! that is how i break it down and get through it. i dont mind the discomfort (and i only have 2 to your three--i cant imagine how you must feel!), i just keep thinking that my job is to grow these babies to the best of my abilities. you are doing great! you will have three precious little ones to love and cuddle!

's I am sure you must be uncomfortable. I know you want them in there as long as possible (but not passed the due date I'm sure lol) I am praying for you and your little ones. Just try to take it one day at a time and be thankful for every moment you have. I am sure you will make it to 24 and pray you make it to term. I am looking forward to 28 right now and sooo close. I never ever thought I would actually get this far. My next goal is 32 weeks. It seems much more reachable now and I think once you pass 24 and get passed each week you'll see it is possible. I know its scary and you do question every single feeling you have but I believe you will make it.

poor thing i cant imagine!!!! Im so happy you are making it this far and doing so well tho! Keep your spirits up...and my oldest got the same way once she understood that someone else was coming into our lives

Oh honey! I'm uncomfortable with one, so I know it's gonna be worse with 3. But I know you can do it. And I can hear you about not having room in bed. For the past 3wks my DD has been crawling in bed with me cause she's afraid I'm gonna go into labor with out her.

[angelstarsmum]

Thanks ladies im in tears reading all you posts( hormones! ) I needed that
If i do reach 24wks my next goal would be 28wks i dont want my babies born early. Im feeling a little better today just focusing on eating and resting Im making the most of it
