Hello

Hello ladies! I've been here before but not for a long time so I thought I'd re-introduce myself. My name is Jessica (29) & I'm a SAHM to my beautiful little girlies Gabrielle, Caroline & Elizabeth 25mo spontaneous frat triplets. My daughters were 2lb 31weekers who are now average 2yr old toddlers. Anyway I just thought I'd say hi, I look forward to getting to know you ladies better

Hey Jessica! :wavey: Hope we get to know you better too!! B)

Welcome back.

 

wow, triplets! People with one baby always say to me "It's hard with one, couldn't imagine having two at the same time" Well I can now say that but about having three or more. Do you have extra help or can you manage three pretty well now? Bet you have your own technique on how to multi-task huh?

lol we get the 'hands full' & 'how do you do it' comments all the time. I always reply with the truth- I'm blissfully unaware of how much easier one or two kids is. Since they came home I've managed them on my own most of the time. DH worked 3rd shift (11am-11pm 5+ days a week) for the girls 1st 9mo so I figured out pretty early how to juggle baby duties on my own. I don't look at not having help as a negative though because that also meant I didn't have anyone telling me I was doing things "wrong" or that something wasn't possible. Anything I wanted to do was possible & I just figured a way to do it. I'm actually very thankful for that it meant I was never one of those moms afraid to grocery shop or go on outtings with my kids alone which mean I never felt 'trapped' at home with my kids- going somewhere/doing something was/is always an option. Not that having help is a bad thing or anything, I just feel so sad for those moms who feel thay can't go to the zoo without a nanny or have to wait until 9pm when the kids are sleeping & DH is in charge to go to the grocery store. Now don't get me wrong, I've had plenty of failed shopping trips with kids having temper tantrums the moment we walk into the store, I just don't let those experiences stop me from trying again.
