Thank you so much for the update. You are amazing.....working 5 days a week with a triplet pregnancy and major morning sickness. You are truly a resilient mama. So happy babies are healthy and strong. You have the pregnancy glow, hope you start feeling better more often (thats the best way to say it, as you probably won't "feel great" until you hold the babies in your arms). Keep up the good work momma!
Thanks, Deb! I decided to cut back to working 4 days per week starting now. I just get so tired and with the velamentous cord insertion with Baby A, I think I need more rest. I am starting to feel better now. I'm just dealing with this cold. Thanks for always checking in with us!
So glad to see an update. Pregnancy is so much harder than people make it out to be. I was so convinced it was going to be so easy, but I no clue how hard the first trimester was going to be. I just popped at 17 weeks! I started gaining at that point too. Now the weight is coming on fast! I think you are smart in cutting back on your work schedule if you are able to. You are growing three human beings! It is hard not to be worried, especially with multiples. I love that you are doing your best to stay so positive. Already being a good mother! Praying for you and the babies!
I knew you would pop soon! I'm glad I cut back at work. I'm just so tired now and the velamentous cord insertion on Baby A has me concerned. Thank you for your prayers. I'm so glad you and the girls are doing well!
So glad to see you sweetie. Sorry the beginning of your second trimester was so rough. In all honesty, my second trimester is where I felt the most awful too. I had more nausea (never threw up though. Thank God!), more discomfort, and more exhaustion than I ever did in the first. All I kept reading and hearing from people is how wonderful I should be feeling, and I just felt like crap in my second trimester. Funny how it turns out like that for some people. Hopefully you are past all that uncomfortableness very soon. You look great though! Keep those positive thoughts flowing! Praying for you and those sweet babies all the time. I can't wait to hear what they are!!!
Things are starting to look up. If I could just get over this darn cold! I have been thinking of you every day! I'm praying your little bean get nice and cozy!
My goodness, Sarah your pregnancy is flying by. I cant believe you are 16 weeks!! You may not feel it but you are glowing. We found out yesterday we are having twins in Sept/Oct. So glad everything is going well for your babies. And Baby A sounds strong regardless. They call them Twin 1 and Twin 2 here. I hope you get to enjoys things more soon xoxoxox
I know! It seems so long, but so very short. Congratulations on your twins!!! So, will it be Summer for you then? Sept/Oct is Fall here. I hope everything goes smoothly and you feel fantastic!
Thank you for the update Sarah! You sound tired but you look great. Tired bliss becomes a state of being when you have little kids. Big ones too actually. I'm always overtired but mostly I wake up smiling because I'm so in love with my crazy family. I hope those beans stay in for the long haul. Xo
Hi Sarah! Thank you so much for your videos! Been TTC #1 for 3 years and now starting IVF Journey! Your videos have inspired me and given me so much hope! I just found you yesterday and I've cried with you. I have family in St Louis so I feel a special connection w you :)! I'm about start my stims on Wednesday so I'm excited and nervous! :) I hope to have a positive experience like you! Prayers that it all continues to go well for you and your precious babies! Xoxoxo
Good luck with stims tomorrow! It is a very exciting and nerve-wracking experience. But once your cycle begins, it moves quickly! I pray everything goes smoothly for you.
So glad to see your lovely face! So sorry that you haven't been feeling great. I have been wondering how you have been doing. I too feel like I have to have the perfect conditions to make an update... Sigh life knows better than that. Honda Odyssey is my dream momma-mobile too, hope you can find something you love. Hopefully you continue to be on the upswing to only feeling better and better. Really glad to hear from you!
Ugh, we are so in love with the Odyssey! Even though I have family who works for Honda, the new 2015 is still too pricey for us. But, they seem to hold their value so we are searching for a used one now. I am definitely feeling better. Just wishing this cold would go away. Thanks for checking in with us!
Thank you so much for updating us! You look beautiful in this video. I'm sorry that you've been so sick but I'm so happy to hear that you and babies are doing well! You're in my prayers daily.
Thank you for sharing your story. It is a scary process for anyone but you appear to be doing veryl. Stay positive and your blessing will continue to be fruitful and multiply.
I decided to go ahead and cut back to working 4 days per week. It was the right decision considering I get so exhausted and Baby A has velamentous cord insertion. Thank you for the well wishes!
So happy to see a great update from you! I've been thinking of you and the babies. I'm happy to hear things are going well. Keep up with those affirmations and have you considered doing some birth art or pregnancy art? I highly recommend it. :) Take care sweetie!
Sorry, I thought I responded to this! When I was pregnant with my second son I read "Birthing from Within" and in that book they suggest creating birth art. So I went and got some paint and materials and did some paintings. It was a way to get in touch with my inner-self that I didn't do with my first child and it was transformative. I just painted how I felt. I painted a pregnant mama and some other pieces, too. Other suggestions are maybe using other mediums such as clay to create art. I'm a little artistic, not an artist so I was apprehensive but again I recommend it to pregnant mamas. It was a great experience. Hope you are doing well!
Just realized I missed this update... I'm so glad you're feeling better! Are you finding out what you're having? If so you probably already know :) Look forward to your next update!
My heavens I identified with SO much of what you said--from feeling terrible to trying to find the right minivan to trying to find the perfect time to record a video. :-| I'm so glad babies are doing well. Sorry, though, that it's been rocky for you. And holy cow, you're pretty much at the mid-point! Incredible! I tell ya what, you may be feeling yucky but you look amazing (looks like your hair is growing quite a lot). Hang in there mama. The second half flies by (well, up until you get to the last few weeks and then suddenly times moves at a snail's pace). :)
Hahaha! That's what I've heard about the time/space continuum during pregnancy! I hate that you've had a resurgence of sickness in the 3rd trimester. Boo! Thanks for the compliments. It is nice to hear when you're feeling under the weather. :)
Thank you! I would definitely consider cloth diapers if I could stay home with them. Our plan is for my mom to watch them every day I'm at work until they can start running around. If I ever decide to use them I've got a cousin who can give me some.
I love watching your videos & so glad that all the babies are doing well. I'm having some complications with this pregnancy as well, I just need to stay positive as you said in your video cause if not its going to drive me nuts lol. Are you feeling the babies move? I can feel the baby move (not any big movements) & I so enjoy it. Wow, 3 baby showers I'm sure you are going to get all the pampers you need, I didn't realize you have to start planning for a shower this soon. My family is planning this big shower for me in the summer. Well take care & God Bless
I'm sorry to hear you have complications :( I pray everything goes smoothly for you. Staying positive is exhausting because it takes constant effort to fight those worries and negative thoughts. I admire how calm my husband has been. His philosophy is "I'm not gonna worry until someone tells me it's time to worry". It's a nice Yin to my Yang. I *think* I feel babies? It just feels like gas rolling around my abdomen. Yeah, I decided to have my showers as early as possible in case I was on bed rest. I've read it is very common to be put on bed rest at any point after week 20 with triplets. Plus, I get so tired already. God bless you, too!
It's insane to think about sometimes! I am starting to feel better. Just dealing with this stupid cold that won't go away. Thanks for checking in with us!
Things are looking up. Just have this residual cold nonsense. Hopefully I can enjoy a few weeks of feeling great before I get really big. Thanks for checking in on us!
That's a huge difference on your BP! And for the record, I think this glorious pregnant feeling is a total myth! hahahah I love the way you put it though hahahahaha Ive been having blurred vision too!! I went to see a doctor and I have bifocal vision at the moment.... While I left everything for last minute, I dont think you have that luxury my friend!! hahah with three babies coming it could happen sooner than you think, but hopefully after week 35!! XOXOXOX
Right?! This pregnancy thing is hard! So many things change. I had to buy new bras today... Yeah, they say not to bother buying glasses while you are pregnant because your vision is so different. Now that I have cut back at work I'll start getting things ready for babies.
I do not share the desire to have triplets and three placentas vaginally. I know it is possible. It's the only way triplets were born up until the C-section was available. I'll update soon, but labor is very dangerous for Baby A. I am comfortable with having a C-section.
i have a honda odyseey look into a used i have 3 kiddos a 4 year old and almost 2 year old twins and we got an amazing deal on ours and its top of the line
I've seen the link, but have no desire to watch. I have to make very conscious decisions about what information I take in. Thank you for thinking of me!

Thank you. We have the same seasons as yourselves. I love Autumn though :o)
Sending prayers and glad things are going so far so good for you!!! I hope you start feeling better soon...xoxo
Thank you! I'm already feeling better. Just wish I could get rid of this cold! I'm so excited for you to meet baby girl!

I remember my poor mom always being tired! LOL But, she was always amazing. As was my dad. So, I look forward to being tired with my little loves. :)

Thank you Sweetie!!

Thank you!
I am so happy to see that you and your little blessings are doing well.
Thank you so much!
You look fabulous!!! Pregnancy looks great on you. Glad to hear you and the babies are doing so great. Whoohoo 3.1415!
Let's hear it for Pi Day!
Hoping all is well with you and yours!
Thank you! All is well so far.
So glad the babies are doing well. Hope you manage to get some good rest!

Love my affirmations. Thank you again for suggesting them! No, I haven't considered any art. What does it entail?

You should cloth diaper!! Great way to save money, and you can get cheap gently used as well!
Thank you! I would definitely consider cloth diapers if I could stay home with them. Our plan is for my mom to watch them every day I'm at work until they can start running around. If I ever decide to use them I've got a cousin who can give me some.
Love your updates

She had triplets and had them naturally thats all the video was about. That if ur pregnancy goes well u do still have that option. Good luck.

i have a honda odyseey look into a used i have 3 kiddos a 4 year old and almost 2 year old twins and we got an amazing deal on ours and its top of the line
24 diaper a day per baby seems way over the top i would say 12-15 i did disposables at the beginning and now cloth diaper and love it
MaKayla J That sounds more manageable!
Hey look up trauma triplets birth just so you can see the video on you tube
