December 3rd

Today we had our Doctor's Appointment. We got to hear the heart beats today! We were not sure if the Doppler would work for us, but because the babies are in three nicely separated areas, the nurse was able to get readings on all of them!! The bpm ranged from the high 150's to the mid 170's which is right on the money. It was so uplifting to know they were all chugging along!

We sorted out confusion on due dates today as well, and pretty much confirmed that the due date in June 5th. The actually delivery date is going to be sooner, but an accurate due date is important to know so we can have an accurate gestation age. So, the triplets are 13 weeks and 2 days along! How time flies! We have an ultrasound next week as well, so we are quite excited to see how the little ones are progressing.

As for Shara's health, she is doing great! Besides still being quite nauseous (McDonald's was quite unkind to Shara this past weekend), Shara is gaining weight at the rate she is supposed to, her blood work is great too, save for needing to take iron supplements now. The doctors are great and really want to look out for Shara. We will be getting a home blood pressure monitor just to be safe. Shara's pressure is good, but it has fluctuated in the past and they are overly cautious. It is amazing the amount of care we are getting. The nurse we see is awesome too. It has been a great experience with them thus far.

We are starting to get plans developed for the arrival of the SD3. I have actually started a Project Plan to keep us organized and focused. I know, it is over the top, but that's how I roll ;o) So much to do, and time is not a-plenty! For all those family and friends out there, don't fret, I will have your names beside a few action points soon! HAHA! That is about it for now. Keep checking back and leave your comments, we love to read them!
