So Wed morning 11/30/11 around 2 AM, I kept waking up because I kept getting really bad cramps like I was having a period from hell. In the morning I was still having them. I tried laying down in different positions, and that didnt help. SO I tried to get some cleaning done, see if maybe if I got my mind off it, if it would help. (On a bright side, I got everything finished that I wanted to). It didn't help though. So when Mark got home I took a pretty hot shower and just let the water roll over my hips to see if that would help. It didnt. I wasn't sure at that point which hurt worse the hip pain or the cramping. So I called L&D because they actaully answer. If I call the OB I would of been sent to a voicemail. So I explained to the nurse what was going on, she said ok hold on let me get a different nurse for you. I told her, I jsut need to know if I need to come in or not, she said well normally not, hold on. So I guess she was explaining it to the nurse next to her, and my one OB (the one that keeps sending me home) was standing right there and heard my name. So the nurse gets back on and says well the OB says to just come on in. (I didnt want to go in really, because I didnt want to be the one that freaks out over every twinge you know, and then have it be for a waste of time.) So I get there, and Mark and I are just talking like normal, and I was smiling and all, and the OB says your not supposed to be smiling, your supposed to be contracting. I told her I dont think they are contractions, I know what contractions feel like, this is just lots of cramping and pressure. So they get me settled into a room. Strap me up to a machine, got all three heartbeats on in about 10 minutes, and then the contraction monitor. About 5 minutes later, the OB sticks her head in the room and says, well do you want to have some babies today? I said wait what? Today, she said yep in about 30 minutes. Your having contractions, and Ive talked to the MFM they said its fine to go ahead as long as your contracting. I know what contractions feel like, and these didnt feel like it at all, but I guess they were. So a freenzy of bloodwork (my platelet count went up drastically!! 123 vs the measly 83 it was a few weeks ago). They get me all settled in, wheel me to the OR, switch my tables, and I bet the spinal. After I was good and numb they started before Mark even got in the room. Out comes Baby A at 8:02 pm, didnt even have to make her cry, she was doing it all on her own. She was breech. Then literately a few seconds later again at 8:02 out came Baby B. Took her a minute to start crying but she did. She was transverse (sideways). Then at 8:03 they pulled out my baby boy, he was the only one head down. Took him a few minutes but he started to cry too.
The OB stitched me back up, she used stitches, no staples. I asked if my stomach will ever go back to being tight again, she said she doesnt know. But when I was finally able to see my stomach again, wow, it has deflated.
I have a pressure wrap on my stomach atm, it is supposed to give me more support because of the incision. I do hurt a great deal, but I also am trying as hard as I can to do things on my own. I know the more I baby it the longer it will take for me to get back to my normal self. My stomach itches a ton!! When they take the wrap off, I feel like I am looking at skin colored jello. :( I havent had it off when I stand up yet, I will do that later when I take my shower. I asked one of the other nurses, she said it might tighen up but it might take 9 months too. So we will have to wait and see. I havent weighed myself yet, Ill do that when I get home.
As of today, 12/8/11 Faye is in an open crib, Riley has done a total turn around, and is now off his canuala, and in an open crib. Camryn they would put in an open crib except she is the smallest and they do not want her to burn all her calories on trying to stay warm. I just got off the phone with them and they said they may see how she does.

Don't worry over your stomach yet. It will take awhile to see what it's going to do.
Welcome to the world, Faye, Riley, and Camryn!

"It's harder to talk about how crazy in love you are with your kids than playing along with the narrative that parenting is terribly hard. If you decide you want kids, don't do it expecting happiness or exhaustion or perfection or anything at all. Do it expecting your life to be ripped wide open and to keep expanding."-The Rollergiraffe
