We are now 9 weeks along and loving being pregnant. It is amazing to think that just a few months ago, I thought it would be impossible for me to ever be pregnant - just wishing that I could have one baby; and now, I am incredibly blessed by being pregnant with triplets. I continue to be in awe that God chose for me to become a parent.
Though it seems premature, we have started shopping around for strollers and cribs and car seats, etc. I have already found that stores don't understand the need for mom's of multiples. It is a little discouraging, but thankfully online shopping is abundant. I just wish I could actually see what I am buying before I buy it. Especially when we are looking at $60 just for shipping for a stroller. Yikes! Almost makes me want to just take a vacation to Ft. Myers, FL to pick it up.
I love deals - so I am really hoping to find some great deals in a few weeks when I go to a "Mom's of Multiples" resale. Yes, they actually have groups for moms of multiples. And now that I am joining those ranks, I just might find such a group to be helpful.
Each of the babies are about three-quarters of an inch by now and are continuing to grow at a good rate. The arms and legs are formed - and moving by now! The facial features are developed, but the eyelids are still in the process of developing. Even their teeth have started to form - which is amazing to me, since they don't even have teeth showing when they are born, but yet they are formed so early! And watching their heartbeats on the ultrasound each week is incredible! It makes it so much more real! I will be disappointed when I reach a point in my pregnancy that I won't have weekly ultrasounds, which is just a few weeks away.
