Broken
I keep going back to my April 24th post when I wrote:
But I know the end result is worth it: A take home baby--- No tubes, no wires, no alarms, eyes opened, crying pink baby, a healthy baby boy for us! We are in the home stretch!
Well our baby boy did not have any tubes or wires or alarms. He was pink. He was big (7lb 12oz) and beautiful (head full of black hair, chubby cheeks) and healthy as far as we know.
This Wednesday we were supposed to meet him. I need to get through this week.
I still cannot wrap my head around what happened to our baby. Stillborn. What an awful, absolute term. I cannot believe that we will soon be burying our 3 child in 2 years. We are heartbroken and empty.
When the triplets were in the NICU, at least we had hope. Hope that they would get better, hope that they would come home.
Thank goodness for Nina. We say it all the time, but she is a miracle.
She is a miracle that she survived a premature entry into this world, but she is our miracle for keeping this family together right now with her laughter and hugs.

Updates and such
I am 35 weeks 1 day today! 9 months here I come! Unbelievable isn't it??!!
They scheduled my c-sec for May 27th--at that point I would be 39 weeks 6 days so hopefully they can move it up to the week before as the day draws near.
Had growth u/s this past Monday and baby boy was at 5 lb 4 oz so he is right on target!
This coming week I will start going to Dr weekly!! We only have two more weeks of the P17 shots to go! Tonight and next Friday!
Nina is doing better in the breathing department. The pollen count is supposed to be way high this weekend so we'll be watching her armed with the nebulizer!
We took her to the dentist this week. At her two year appt the Ped said he did not like the way her two teeth looked so we saw dentist and he just filed the two down and could not tell us the reason for the malformation of the two. Basically the enamel did not grow on them. They look a lot better now.
Not much else to report. Jason is painting baby boy's room this weekend and we are just getting excited that he could be here in the next 3-4 weeks!
I am so thankful to have made it this far. I complain about the foot under my ribs and peeing every 30 minutes since baby boy has decided to use my bladder as a pillow.
But I know the end result is worth it: A take home baby--- No tubes, no wires, no alarms, eyes opened, crying pink baby, a healthy baby boy for us! We are in the home stretch!
I must add: KNOCK ON WOOD!

More Mac -E- Cheese!
Unsure if it's the steroids she was on or a growth spurt, but Nina has been chowing down ALL WEEK! She is demanding food and it's really funny.
I tried to get it on tape, but I kinda messed up the filming by rotating the camera the wrong way.
Just turn your head to the left! (that's my mom in the beginning)
