So yesterday we had our weekly appointment with Dr. Starikov, and things continue to be going well. My blood pressure is good, heartbeats are strong, and I am about 5 lbs. away from the minimum recommended weight gain (55 lbs) for carrying triplets. Curious? Brace yourselves...I am now tipping the scale at a whopping 192 lbs! I will most likely hit the 200 mark by next month. I had to take my second gestational diabetes test...if I don't hear from the doctor today-no news is good news. He did mention that the last one was "close" so we'll see. We also had our growth ultrasound and the doctor said the babies continue to have excellent growth! Big Boy is still the largest at 2 lb. 13 oz, while the other boy is 2 lb. 8 oz, and my baby girl is 2 lb. 6 oz. We stopped at McDonald's on the way home to celebrate-seemed appropriate!
*UPDATE: Dr. Starikov called this afternoon...my heart sank when I saw his number because he said he'd only call if something was wrong with my GD test or ultrasound. But, he was calling to give me the all clear. I passed my test and babies are fine!

Belly button is slowly disappearing...as Dave says "The aliens stole it..."
Sometimes I catch my reflection out of the corner of my eye and think...it used to be my butt that stuck out the most!
