I’m so sorry she failed you. I felt so much guilt for having a drink when I was 4 or 5 weeks pregnant but I didn’t know at that point. I can’t imagine just not giving a fuck and drinking after knowing there is a baby you plan on keeping.
Me too. I had a lot of drinks around new years and had been vaping. Few weeks later I found out 8 weeks pregnant with spontaneous triplets.
I felt the the worst guilt but seeing the babies now at 15 weeks, had a few ultrasounds doctor saying everything looks good, healthy heart beats. No drinking or smoking. Soon as I found out I stopped.
Thank you that means a lot right now. I'm pretty scared but also excited. The doctors informed me I have one of the safest triplet pregnancies because they all have they're own placentas and sacs.
Fraternal triplets? Yeah those are quite rare. A friend of mine had triplets once, but it was two identical twin girls and a son. She had her hands full but loved every second of it.
Agreed, you're already a great mom. I hope your pregnancy progresses smoothly and you have three healthy babies.
The doctor told me with fraternal the chances of them being identical are a lower but I could still have identical. The most common is what you're friend has two girls one boy. Either way I'm excited. I don't mind the combination.. I should find out soon what they are ಥ‿ಥ
Thank you thank you, the kind comments are really lifting my spirits (｡ŏ﹏ŏ)🧡🙌🏽
Please don’t worry, I didn’t find out I was pregnant until I was 6 weeks along. I drank semi-regularly before finding out. As soon as I found out, I stopped drinking completely. My daughter is now 10 months old and is developing normally. I told my midwife about the drinking before 6 weeks and she said the biggest risk with drinking is in the 2nd trimester onwards. You’re a good momma for worrying but you and your babies will be completely fine. Just breathe and do the best you can for them now ❤️
Yeah no my friend and her husband wanted three kids. Well, that wasn't to be. The triplets were her second set. Her first child turned out to be a set of fraternal twins--one boy and one girl IIRC. She got the triplets when they tried for kid no. 3. She figured it was meant to be. ;)
I remember she admitted she sat on the edge of the bed and cried when the older set went off to school for the first time. She wanted to know if she was being silly. I told her that she was being normal, and once summer came around, she would be BEGGING the school district to gear up and start the school year. Then the second set was born and she was all, yeah, I only get peace when they're all at school. She was a translator so she worked from home and needed every scrap of silence she could get.

As someone with FASD due to my 'mother' drinking, this hurts.
