Introduction: Being a mom of triplets is no easy feat. From pregnancy to parenthood, the journey is full of ups and downs, but the love and joy that come with it are unparalleled. In this blog post, I will share my personal journey as a triplet mom, including the challenges and triumphs that I experienced along the way.
My Reaction to the News: I will never forget the day I found out I was pregnant with triplets. It was a mixture of shock, excitement, and fear. I was worried about the health risks associated with a multiple pregnancy and how I would handle three babies at once. However, the love for my unborn children made me determined to see the pregnancy through to the end.
First Consultation with Gynecologist: My first consultation with a gynecologist was a turning point in my pregnancy journey. I was scared and uncertain about how to handle a multiple pregnancy. My gynecologist helped me understand the challenges I would face and provided guidance on how to stay healthy and strong throughout the pregnancy. It was reassuring to know that I had a medical professional by my side who could provide the necessary care and support.
Second Opinion and Counseling: When my husband and I decided to get a second opinion, we underwent serious counseling to ensure we made the best decision for our family. We wanted to make sure we had all the information we needed to ensure a safe and healthy pregnancy. The second opinion gave us additional information that helped us make better decisions and prepared us for what was to come.
Choosing Hospitals with Proper NICU Facility: Choosing the right hospital with proper neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) facilities was crucial for the survival of my premature babies. It was a tough decision, but we finally found a hospital that met all of our requirements. We wanted to make sure our babies would receive the best possible care in case anything went wrong during the pregnancy.
Going Through the Rough Times: The pregnancy was not easy, and I went through several rough times. I experienced physical and psychological pain, including morning sickness, back pain, and fatigue. There were moments when I felt overwhelmed and unsure of how to handle everything. However, the love and support of my family and friends helped me through the tough times.
Family and Husband Support: The support of my family and husband was crucial in helping me get through the pregnancy. They ensured I stuck to a healthy routine, including a nutritious diet and regular exercise. They also made sure I was comfortable and happy by keeping me company and taking care of the household chores.
The Physical and Psychological Pain: The physical and psychological pain of carrying triplets was immense. I was under constant stress, and my body was stretched to its limits. However, the love I felt for my babies made everything worth it. I found the courage to keep going, even when I felt like giving up.
Avoiding Unwanted Thoughts: It is normal to have unwanted thoughts when going through a difficult pregnancy. However, I found ways to keep my mind occupied and focused on positive things. I read books, watched movies, and spent time with loved ones to keep myself distracted from negative thoughts.
Routine Diet by Husband and In-Laws: My husband and in-laws were instrumental in ensuring that I followed a healthy diet throughout the pregnancy. They made sure I had nutritious meals and snacks, and encouraged me to stay active. Their support helped me maintain my health and the health of my babies.
Keeping Me Happy: Being on bed rest during pregnancy was not easy, but my family made sure I was happy and entertained. They kept me company, brought me books and magazines to read, and watched movies with me. Their presence made a huge difference in how I felt during those long days on bed rest.
Conclusion: In conclusion, being a triplet mom was the most challenging and rewarding experience of my life. From the moment I found out I was pregnant with triplets, to the birth of my beautiful babies, I went through an incredible journey. The support of my family, friends, and medical professionals was crucial in helping me through the difficult times. I learned a lot about myself and my ability to persevere in the face of adversity. I hope my journey can serve as a source of inspiration and hope for other moms going through a similar experience. Note: Additionally, I would like to mention my YouTube channel, "Tanu And The Triplets," where my husband and I have shared our pregnancy journey right from day one. We have also shared vlogs of our life with triplets, including how we manage their daily routine, the challenges we face, and the moments of joy and love we experience as a family. Our channel has been a source of inspiration and support for many other parents of multiples. We hope to continue sharing our story and inspiring others to keep going and never give up, no matter how tough the journey may be.
