Knocked up, times three

Okay! Now it’s time to find out just how many people read this blog! I’m expecting many comments of congratulations, people. Or pity. Heh heh.

I think most of you know this anyway, judging by the oh-so-clever comments left in the last post, but I’m pregnant. Whoopee doooo, believe me, this news may seem exciting now, but only for the next few seconds. Until you read that I’m pregnant with triplets.

Before I go on, let me say:

1. No, I have no family history of multiples (just lots and lots of kids; see my grandfather who had something like a dozen+ siblings)
2. No, I was not on fertility drugs
3. If you want to know how anyone reacted, ask yourself how you are reacting now. Shocked? You think I’m lying? Surprised? Stunned? Excited? Happy? That’s how everyone reacts. Except George and me. We’re still just stunned.
4. We don’t know if they’ll be identical or fraternal, or some combination.
5. We’d like to keep the sexes secret, if possible.

(Those are the answers to the top five questions we get, so I thought I’d just get it out of the way.)

I wasn’t going to post today, because I’m having dinner with my cousins Monica and Max, and Aunt Mary tonight, and if I can tell someone in person, I’d rather do that. But I’ll take the chance that Monica (and Max and Aunt Mary) is far too busy to read my silly blog.

It’s still early days, and there are no guarantees that we’ll end up with three babies down the line. I know that sounds morbid, but I’m just trying to be realistic. This is scary stuff, people. I’m terrified. So just keep us in your thoughts and prayers (if you’re so inclined) and don’t forget to contribute to the Minivan Fund! (Kidding.)

PS: This is technically proof, but it just looks like three blobs. That’s blobs 1 and 2 on top, and blob 3 on the bottom.

    Good! Talking in three’s was about to drive me crazy. And Paula, apparently!Pamela. You cannot keep the sexes of my three nieces secret! Yes, we all know it’s three girls because Grandee wants a grandson (at least ONE) to spoil after Eleanor and Emily!Besides.. if you have three girls.. plenty of clothes! I think little boys might look awfully weird in a little pink ballgown with bows! But that’s just me… :-)And hey.. we may even get three more placentas and umbilical cords to add to our collection..

    Pam, congrtulations! Thanks for popping in on my blog. Triplet pregnancies are definitely not for the weak hearted, but at 20 weeks, I’m definitely learning that there’s a light at the end of the tunnel and while my husband and I aren’t really over the “stunned” part of our reaction, we’re really excited about the babies we’ll meet in September. I wish you much, much luck and I hope you have a really comfortable chair to park yourself in while your husband pampers you for the next few months. 🙂
