November 16th, 2007 - Triplets!!!



We are extremely nervous today, if all goes well we will be able to see your little heart beat for the very first time. The doctor has warned us to be cautious, since many babies do not continue to develop during the first eight weeks. If we can see your heart beat, the chances of you developing full-term will increase significantly. We arrived at the doctor's office around 11:30am and they immediately escorted us into the scanning room. The nurse made your Mommy very comfortable and then began the scan. This was very exciting, because we could also watch what was going on. As the nurse continued on with the scan, she began to smile and then gave us the "Thumbs up Sign"! Your Mommy immediately began crying hysterically, because the nurse just informed us that the little blinking dot on the screen was your heart beat! We were both filled with joy knowing you made it this far!! What happened next is totally unbelievable. The nurse then asked your Mommy to adjust her position to see if there was anyone else in there with you. To our amazement, not only did she see another heart beat, she saw two!! We are going to be having triplets!!! We feel so blessed! We have to be the luckiest people on this planet! It is going to be a challenge, but I can ensure each of you that we will do everything in our power to give you the best life possible!
