Hey Ladies -
I had a long phone conversation with my perinatologist (sp?) the other day. (I had some concerns about my vitamins) Long story short, we had some time to discuss my pregnancy.....weight gain, time off work, c-section, etc....

I brought up the chances of miscarriage and my tendancy to be a worry wort. He told me that if we could "will/worry" ourselves into miscarrying, then there wouldn't have to be any abortion clinics.

I hope this is coming across o.k. I think all of us have m/c on the back of our mind....especially those that have already traveled down that road, but my doctor made me feel better that my anxiety will not bring on a m/c.

take care all

Meg, Im so glad things are going along ok. I think we are all worried about crossing the 12 week mark. So much has been invested into the conception of our children. We certainly dont take anything for granted. I too look for spotting or bleeding every single time I go to the toilet. Often I even go when I dont need to just to check. I pray for every single one of us and Im sure we will all deliver healthy babies

Whew!, I am so relieved to hear from you Meg and know that all is going well!! I am 22 1/2 weeks and still worry about something going wrong. My best friend delivered at 23 wks a year ago and he survived two weeks. It was soo incredibly hard and painful. You then realize, it could happen to you. She trusted in God and did very well with her grief, but my heart broke for her. Baby Kai is in heaven watching over her now and so are the other babies that have left us too early. I know your triplets will be united one day along with the others. I pray for all of us during our pregnancy. It's not over after the pregnancy, we then worry about SIDS, and infections, and accidents, the list goes on!. But what a wonderful road when your child looks up at you and reassures you that it was all worth it!! much love to every one and many prayers for healthy pregnancies, births and babies!
