My SIL's triplets are here!  

post #1 of 9
Thread Starter 
Just wanted to share the exciting news that my SIL had her triplets (via c-section) today. She made it to 35 wks (despite a PTL scare at 31 wks) and the babies are doing great-- they did not have to go to the NICU and instead are rooming in with her and my brother. It's so funny to me that although her due date was Sept 9, her babies ended up only a week younger than my baby! I am so so relieved that they are here and healthy and that she can now start to recover-- she's been on bedrest for 15 weeks, so that, combined with the stress of the triplet pregnancy and the c-section recovery, mean that she probably has a rough couple of weeks ahead (not to mention having three tiny babies at home soon!). But they're here!! :

heather I am so happy to hear that the new mama and the triplets are all healthy and doing well!
How much did they weigh? What did they name them!

Thanks, Jolene. They weighed 5lbs 15 oz (baby "A", a boy), 4lbs 15 oz (baby "B", a girl), and 4lbs 14 oz (baby "C", a girl). Not sure how they feel about me sharing their names online, though (have to check with them)-- but we are still using "Baby A/B/C" because their real names start with those letters. Quite a baby boom in our family in the past week-- my parents are so thrilled to have 4 new grandbabies!

Wow! They were really big! My sil made it to 34 1/2/35 weeks (can't remember now), and the girls all went home 9 days later. Hoping a good recovery for all for your sil and those babies. I hope they have a bunch of good friends! That was the only way sil and bil made it through the rough first 3 months.
