Several of my friends threw a very nice baby shower for us on Sunday. The theme was ‘diapers and wipes’ and so we received a couple of months’ worth of diapers for our three babies, who will likely use a total of 900-1000 diapers each month. We also got some nice outfits and accessories to make our baby attire more boyish.
You will find some long-awaited pregnancy photos below. Being 25 weeks pregnant, but appearing and measuring 37+ weeks (for a normal singleton pregnancy), makes for quite a sight and for several pregnancy discomforts that are usually reserved for women near term. It also makes going out in public and running errands a bit of a challenge. Many strangers ask when I am due. I either have to lie (i.e. “in a few weeks”) or respond to their utter shock that someone with my belly is not about to deliver, but is actually three months from her due date. I’m getting used to what life will be like once the babies arrive, as the questions will be even more abundant and intrusive when we are out and about with three babies. I’m also a bit frightened by what I’ll measure at full-term for triplets (about 34-36 weeks’ gestation) should we have the good fortune to make it that far. Yikes!!!
Lindsay,
You look absolutely wonderful! I love the dress you are wearing!! What an awesome shower theme. Know we think of you almost every day (seriously!) and pray for all five of you often!
Love,
Jess
Lindsay, you look amazing!! I hope you continue to have a complication-free pregnancy.
You are so beautiful, and your glow is obvious. Sorry I missed your big day, but I am so glad that your friends in Charlotte blessed you with a great shower. Keep up the good work, mama!
