Grats man!

Man, I have a very easy to deal with well behaved baby but I cannot imagine how much I'd be pulling out my hair trying to deal with three of her at once. Especially when they all wake up and need stuff at different times.

They look pretty good. How's the mother? That's a pretty good day's work right there!

Congrats. Your life isn't over. It's different, and it's going to be awesome. Congrats!

Yep, going to be awesome. They are all great, breathing normal air, regulating temperature pretty well, blood pressure is good, etc. They'll likely be in the NICU for a few weeks regardless, but we will see tomorrow how they are with oral feeding.

Mother is great now that they are out, she has been on a Magnesium Sulfate drip for the past 4 days, and that shit is miserable. She's asleep while I try to watch the end of the WS game, but I'm pretty exhausted too. Especially considering I didn't actually do anything.

The 20 minutes where I sat alone while she was prepped for the OR was nerve wracking though. Was going through all of the shit that could go wrong in my head and couldn't really stop myself.

I dunno man let's not sugar coat it, with triplets life might be over for a little bit. Congrats!

Also did a triple take on the pic, thought the two on the right were joined at the arm

Lol no, just baby skin folding since their arms were on top of each other. I've already been to the NICU three times, had to tell myself to wait until morning took again

But yeah, my free time is going to be non existent.

Wow! congrats on the trey. the first year or so will be fun to say the least but having 3 to play together or fight with each other will be a blast. Our daughter is only 7 months old but to watch her play and interact with her 3 year old brother is wonderful. She already knows how to mess with him and I can already tell by the cries whines she makes if he is being mean to her or if its something else. Good luck and have fun it goes really fast.

But seriously, I can do 3 car seats when they are small. Once they get bigger you really need 2 people

Car seats are so fucking awkward to carry too, wrist-breakers.

Oh I would love to see someone carry 3 car seats at once. Our kid is still in the same one, they're just awkward and ridiculous to carry. Now that he's 17 pounds it's like "FUCK THIS"

I was merely wondering how you carry 3 kids at once, like what are the logistics of that?

Take them out of the seats and carry them in your arms I guess? Or have a triple-stroller so you don't carry them? Maybe some kind of seat/carrier that holds 3? Not really possible to carry three separate car seats with one person.

It has officially begun

Kid is 2 1/2, and when we're home alone I usually focus on playing with him. He has zero attention span so he's always wanted to do something different every 10 minutes.

So yesterday he's unusually focused on his train set...had been playing with it non-stop for like half an hour. I figure I can maybe sneak some video gaming time in while he's playing with his trains.

I fire up the new Assassins Creed, and the kiddo is instantly enthralled. "HE"S CLIMBING" "RUN RUN RUN RUN" "JUMP DADDY, JUMP!"

He's already hooked and he can't even hold a controller yet.
