it has been such a roller coaster these last few weeks. first they tell us there are twins. the next week they tell us there are triplets. then they tell us baby c won't make it and the following week they say baby c is still hanging on but likely won't make it another week. well today they said baby c is still growing and it's catching up with the other two. what the hell? it's been very hard to find the joy in the situation when they keep telling us different things. i don't mean to sound ungrateful but we need to know what we are dealing with and whether c has serious problems. how can they flip flop on us every week?
meanwhile i've been vomiting so much i'm puking blood. the doctor says that's normal...keep my stomach full. it's hard to eat when everything makes me puke though.
i'm seeing my obgyn for the first time tomorrow. i had to beg to get in since she is booked until next year. i told the receptionist that i was having triplets and i didn't want any other doctor. that worked so i'm excited. then apparently i have to find a specialist who deals with multiples. i forget the name of this doctor...who knew there were doctors specifically for multiples..? so that's really all right now.

wow, what a roller coaster ride! Good for baby C, must be a trooper...but I can understand the concern and can empathize with the frustration at changing info you're getting.
Keeping you in my thoughts!
for multiples you need a high risk ob. where do you live? i can try to give you recommendations if you live in NY.
The best practice for multiples in the New York area is Maternal Fetal Medicine Associates

Ask your doctor about them.
Goodness, you have been through so much. Take it one day at a time and try not to get too stressed!
I'm glad baby C is doing well, and I hope the terrible puking ends soon. That sounds miserable. Yeah, I didn't realize there were the high risk OBs until last year (the perinatologists through maternal fetal medicine offices). I hope you find one you love. They usually all take really good care of their patients.
