As the weeks progress we know we are getting closer to me having to finish work, I am planning on working til 25 weeks (my decision fully, if Kane had his way I was to be finishing at 22 I just knew the boredom would drive me crazy) although if I was told by the doctors or hosptial that I need to finish I would then stop. Going onto one income for any family has it stresses, we are lucky enough that we will be comfortable enough for me to finish without too many stresses obvisouly no more shopping trips but with our savings we have been preparing since we found out should be able to manage. So with still having two pay's we have been trying to get everything sorted we now have a massive stash of nappies!! Approx 700+ it is always hard to work out how many you will need but with ours being prem i'm thinking that they will get used up faster than we think.. We have also paid of our layby of the basinetts and car seats and a huge cost out of the way, it was hard to fit all in the car and the back seat and boot were chocca (pic included at the end).
Every time we go to pay the layby the ladies always remember us and ask for update on the 3 little ones, today a lady behind me in the cue asked me how far along I was, I said 20 weeks and she looked puzzled, im 32 and about the same size. Once I explained that I was carrying triplets she was stunned to say the least but so excited for us. She told that I had made her day and how amazing it would be to have 3 babies! I love when we get these positive comments as sometimes people can be rather rude about the triplets and often remind us of how hard it will be and how sorry they are for us. We believe each of our babies is a blessing and we know it will be hard which I am sure it will be for any other first time families but we both are as excited and amped for the challenge ahead!
I was really taking advantage of my early finishes now being home by 4 was great I would set up camp on the couch switch on the telly and literally lie there until Kane arrived home, was so nice to relax and try and work on the back pain and the cramping I was getting more regularly. Also as soon as I relaxed or laid down the babies thought it was their turn to play, kicking and moving around I didnt mind as I knew that at least they were growing and getting stronger.
We were also very excited as at the end of the week Kane's parents were arriving into Brisbane to spend the weekend with us. Kane had planned a funfilled weekend that I hoped I was up for as some days just getting showered and ready wore me out.
