Twins are now triplets

Well I had a scare yesterday and started spotting so I immediatly called my OB and he had me come in for an U/S to see what was going on.  And he found another baby and heartbeat.  But the third baby is so much smaller and than the other 2. The other 2 are growing big and are looking good.  But the third baby looked like the sack was colaspsing and that's what was probably causing the bleeding.  He said there's still a chance the third baby could pull through and be fine but he really doesn't have high hopes.

Oh girl congratulations!!!!! I know what you mean about the trucking business being slow....
My hubby is a sales rep for a company here in MD, and sells dump trucks, crane trucks, hooklifts and all kinds of hydraulic eq. for trucks...... he loves it, but it's getting slow.... all of a sudden it'll pick up.... that's the way it is! and you'll see, you guys will have it good!! =)

LOL I'm actually expecting him to say there is one more.  I was doing some looking on a previous U/S and where they found the third baby there is something that looks just like the 3rd one so I'm actually expectin another.

DH and I always joke that he married me for my insurance bennefits.  When he had to pay for his own, it was crazy expensive.

3 little miracles!!!!  Too exciting!  I think the power of positive thinking plays a huge part in all of it so keep believing!  I wouldn't think it would be too uncommon for one to be smaller especially w/ three in there.  One of my twins (the girl) has been smaller the whole pregnancy and worried me sick until last visit and she has now caught up!   I hear you on the money thing......its very stressful just thinking about it but it will all work out!  I will say lots of prayers for you....take care of yourself!! Welcome to the Multiples Club!!  ;)

My Dh is 24 and we're both freaked.....he's not reallly let baby #3 sink in yet but I think if he sees some growth he'll believe it and love and accept we're just meant to have 3.
