Well Jason usually does the postings but I thought I would fill you in on the latest for once. Jason is in the baby room doing some additional painting as we speak. He has been amazing since I have been on bedrest.
We have had a couple of scary moments in the past couple of weeks. I know it comes with having triplets but when in the midst of these moments, it is terrifying. There has been a couple of times when I have been slightly over my contraction threshhold but, between the doctors and Matria, they have gotten it under control. There was another time early in the morning when I woke up and all the sudden thought my water had broke. That has been the scariest moment. I was just completing my 25th week and I knew if they were born that anything could happen. I couldn't imagine them being born that early. I spoke with the doctor and he said what had happened was normal. Being a first time mom, I don't know what to expect so it makes it even scarier. However, in the midst of all the scary moments, God finds a way to show you that he is there through everything. After we had talked to the doctor, I was getting ready to go to bed and was feeling around for the babies (something I do a lot) and I was able to feel Anniston's little foot up by my ribs. It was an amazing feeling and I felt that God was with me at that moment saying that everything was okay. I was able to caress her little foot for about 5 minutes without her minding at all which was a moment that I will never forget. I still feel around to see if I can find that little foot but haven't been successful again up to this point.
Anyway, we recently went to another appointment and all babies are growing and remain strong. We pray and ask you to pray that they continue to stay strong and healthy as we continue on through this journey of ups and downs. Please pray that I can view this time on bedrest as my sort of purpose in life right now. This is a way that I can take care of the babies right now and the longer they can stay in the womb, the better. Please also continue to pray for Jason. Like I said, he has been absolutely amazing during this time both with me and the babies. He is a true provider and supporter of his family and I am sure that will continue to prove true on throughout their birth and into their homecoming, etc... I couldn't ask for a better husband. He reads to them every night and rejoices in the happy moments when he has been able to feel them move & kick. I know he has been overwhelmed at times with projects, housework, getting things for me, waking up late in the night when I am worried about something that happens or if he just needs to do something for me.
We appreciate all of your prayers and support and will continue to keep you updated on the latest.
Thanks again for everything,
Kristy
