Shopping with triplets plus 1, is it possible or even necessary?

January 5, 2011

Going grocery shopping just isn’t the same anymore. When I was pregnant with my triplets, I was put on ‘house-rest’ around 24 weeks.

Cloth Diapers – they’ve come a long way baby!

December 1, 2010

What if this, What if that…. Was I just lucky? I’ll never know!

October 6, 2010

When I found out I was having triplets, we sat down with my OB-GYN (Dr. B.), and talked about how difficult this pregnancy was going to be. Dr. B had experience with multiples, but as far as I know he’s not a multiples expert. First thing he said was let’s not focus on anything negative. Which […]
