Another Update on the Triplets...

And it's another great update everyone! We went in yesterday for my "long" appointment. Which consisted of ultrasound, fetal heart rate testing and regular exam with my Dr. Again the results were the same as last week. The babies blood flow thru their umbilical cords were perfect, their fluids looked great. Of course Snowflake B has a bit more fluid than Snowflake A (which has been the case for sometime) but nothing to be too concerned about. And our lil baby boy is just doing wonderful in his own lil sac. He's just bent in half poor thing. Again the doctors are amazed at how well the babies are doing considering what we've have to endure in the past 3 months. They think it's great that the babies well-being is improving rather than becoming increasingly worse. But of course we know why! It's the prayers that ALL OF YOU have been sending on our family's behalf. The Lord is doing a miracle! Chris and I are so grateful and thankful to all of you and of course to our Lord for keeping our babies safe and growing.

So what's next? Well now we're having to go in twice a week now for fetal heart rate testing. What this does is monitor the stress of the babies thru their heartbeats along with contractions that I'm experiencing. I'll be doing this up until I deliver the babies. I've done it twice thus far and it's just hysterical how many monitors and things are all over my tummy! I don't even think the babies like it...they're always kicking and moving once the monitors are all on. It's kind of funny.
Our next goal is 33 weeks which is July 20th! Once we hit this date, we're smooth sailing. But our prayer request is that I go at least till 35 or 36 weeks! Best for the babies. Oh and our dr. did mention that if I went to 36 weeks more than likely the babies will be able to go home with us! :0 Wouldn't that be amazing? So that's our prayer request...we want our babies to be healthy enough to come home and not be sitting in the NICU for very long.
With God ALL things are possible! Keep praying everyone!

Hi Corrine,
You don't know me, but I taught with Chris at OC a while back (and I got to CCCV too, but as you know, you can go for months & not run into someone!)
I went back and read through a lot of your blog-- what a testimony! God has truly poured his favor over you, Chris & the babies!
I will be praying for you, especially that you can make it past the 35 week mark so those babies can come straight home!
