I have such a wonderful husband! Today was his first "unofficial" Father's Day and he spent the day taking care of me. He is such a servant and is going to be an amazing dad! He's been taking on most of the household responsibilities, including cooking, cleaning, laundry, and grocery shopping. I feel so bad because I want to help, but physically my body doesn't want to cooperate. Each day is getting more and more challenging physically. I went to Kaiser on Friday to pick up some wrist splints because I have apparently developed "carpal tunnel syndrome" from swelling and weight gain. So, my fingers are constantly aching and numb. It's really weird. I've been trying to wear the wrist splints at night since that is when they are the most painful. I am hoping it'll work! Anyway, when I got in the elevator at Kaiser, a lady said, "Wow! It looks like you're about ready to have that baby!" Then, when I got to the nurse's office (who knows I am pregnant with triplets) she says, "Yep, you're looking about 40 weeks!" So, I am officially HUGE! Well, I know I am only going to get bigger and it's a good thing. The bigger I get, the bigger the babies get! We have another "big" ultrasound this Wed. and it'll be fun to see how much bigger they've gotten. We are hoping that they each will be at least 2 pounds! We'll keep you posted!

Be sure and take the splints with you to the hospital when you have the babies. My carpel tunnel was the worst the first night after the babies were born. I didn't have my splints and as a result I didn't sleep the whole night. So fun to watch you grow! Only a few more weeks!

You look great! I'm sorry you're so uncomfortable. Just remember, there is an end in sight and it includes three precious babies! It's all so worth it.
