Thanks amber, I'm starting to feel a tad better, but still exhausted and pulling skin and big belly.... My doc said at least 2-3 weeks before I start feeling noticably better.
Alyssa, no tape holding their eyes down. They didn't open them until about 72 hours after birth, which is so so common (as the nurses/doctors told us) with preemies.
Eli and anyone else (auntie Jen) who can't see the pictures, email me at division902@hotmail.com (for some reason I CAN'T access the verizon one at my mom's house-ughhhhhhhhhggggggggg) and I'll email some to you.
Jane, everyone (myself and our doctor included) was SOOO surprised at their size. Usually 32.5 week preemies are just over 3lbs, ours were over 4lbs, chubby (not skinny and really thin looking like most preemies) and just overall a good size. My doctor was So surprised, she just kept saying they were huge and beautiful, <img src="i/expressions/face-icon-small-smile.gif" border="0">
Mel, we want to dress the boys alike to go home and for some photos but not all the time, we want them to dress differently, but on special occasions, yes dress them alike. also, have the same outfits but in different colors if that's an option... Cassie of course is pink and we have yellow and blue, not sure which boy will be which right now, but color coordination (we've been told for things like bottles, pacifiers... work good for triplets) I'm sure Mark will like the comment about his eyes. He DOES have beautiful beautiful blue eyes, I LOVE them. I love him too of course but his eyes are stunning!
Leah, as far as coming home, we are looking at another 2-4 weeks plus and it looks like Tristan will be coming home first, then probably cassie and Then Ryland, but of course, that could change, it could happen later or earlier. I'll keep everyone posted though.
Hey Jessi, I got your message but going between the hospital and home a few times a day, and sleeping and pumping, my phone has died a few times and I'm so tired to call, or when I do feel up to it, it's late like it is now, 11pm plus. As of now, it's only family allowed for visits in the NICU. They said that usually changes in a few weeks but it all depends on how the babies are doing as well. I'll keep you posted though and when the friends are allowed to come, I'll let you know (call or send you a PM) and you can come for a visit.
Thanks to everyone for taking the time to look and I'll post more pictures in the next few days. I have ones with their eyes open (finally!!!!) but am just too exhaused to shrink and post them tonight, Ihope you undersand.
Thanks again,
