(3 months ago)Better late than never right. The office finally got the internet, and I am taking advantage by blogging again. I plan on doing a re-cap of basically the whole last year and a half, since that's when I pretty much quit blogging, but first we got to hit the most important thing to happen to us in that time.<br />
<br />
I was scheduled for a c-section on Tuesday May 14 and had my last appointment the Friday before. When we woke up that morning for my non-stress test and doctor appointment I noticed that I had lost my mucous plug. I called the doctors office and they told me to come in to labor and delivery instead of the ante-natal testing unit. When we got there they hooked me me up to all the monitors and noticed I was having regular contractions. Luckily they weren't painful, but I wasn't very dilated. The doctor decided to go ahead and take the babies that day and I was scheduled to go in immediately. Luckily Rich and Lisa live relatively close and were able to come get Ezra.<br />

<span style="font-size: xx-small;">The last belly shot. I really wish we would have gotten a better one, but it all happened so fast.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<span style="font-size: xx-small;"><br /></span></div>
I really did not enjoy having a c-section, but I didn't have a choice because Tavi was breech. We got to the hospital at around 9 am and the Tavi was born at 11:40 am with Levi right behind her at 11:41. It all went pretty fast and the cord was around Tavi's neck twice, so its a good thing they decided to just take them. Tavi was not breathing quite as well as they wanted so they took her to the NICU and Levi came with me to recovery. Bob went to the NICU with Tavi, so it was nice to have my Mom there to hang out with me in the recovery room. I was bleeding a lot, and they ordered blood for me, but luckily never needed to use it!<br />

We shared a room the whole time we were there, except the first night, but it wasn't too bad. We were so busy that we didn't think about Ellie too much, that happened more after we brought them home. We didn't get a ton of pictures because we were too busy trying to catch up on sleep when we weren't holding babies.EmmaLeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04058003848139523407noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8628600780592952158.post-87962145530588302482013-02-04T15:53:00.000-05:002013-02-04T16:35:16.530-05:00Baby BFor those of you who don't know (I can't imagine there being many of you) Bob and I hit the jackpot on our second round of IVF with triplets. We were nervous and excited and in shock. It has turned out to be even more of a roller coaster than we were expecting.<br />
<br />
For the first few weeks everything was going great, I was puking my guts out and the babies looked good! Then things started to be less than ideal. Here is the breakdown of some of the ultrasounds:<br />
<br />
<b>12 week ultrasound:</b> All the babies look good, except that they think there is a possibility that Baby B had clubbed feet, but that she was still so small that it was hard to tell.<br />
<br />
<b>14 week ultrasound:</b> Babies are doing well, but Baby B is diagnosed with a pretty severe bi-lateral cleft lip and palate (okay no biggie, we've done that before) and they aren't so convinced about the clubbed feet. Also she has CPC (choroid plexus cysts) which can be totally normal, they only worry about them if the baby has other problems, and all 3 babies had CPC's. They were also worried that she might have some kind of muscle contracture disorder. Basically she wasn't straightening her arms or legs as much as they would like to see. Also she was measuring smaller than her siblings.<br />
<br />
<b>16 week ultrasound:</b> They had us meet with a genetic counselor and she told us that she was pretty concerned about Baby B. She was thinking that Baby B possibly had Trisomy 13 which is a lethal condition and most babies die at birth. It was a little hard to hear, but we were looking forward to the ultrasound. They recommended that we get an amniocentesis to check her chromosomes, because if we knew she was going to pass away, they would not put the other two babies at increased risk to help her. For example, lets say I am 29 weeks along and Baby B has stopped growing. Ideally they would make me deliver the babies to give Baby B a better chance of survival, even though that is really early for them to be born. If you know she is not going to make it no matter what you do, you leave the babies in for as long as possible to allow Babies A and C the best chance of survival. Hard to think about, but having three of them in there really complicates things.<br />
The ultrasound went much better than expected after the news we had just been given. She still had the cleft (which runs in my family) and they decided that only the right foot was clubbed (generally if it is associated with a syndrome it affects both feet) she still had CPC's and they felt like she was moving her arms and legs better. We also found out that Babies A and B were girls and that Baby C was a boy! She was still the smallest of the 3, but seemed to have caught up a little bit. The doctor said she felt that Baby B had Trisomy 18 which is also a lethal condition in which most babies die at birth. At the end though she said she felt pretty "wishy washy" about it. We decided to put off the Amnio until our next appointment for insurance reasons. They said the only reason we would need to do it that day was if we were going to "selectively reduce" the pregnancy, which basically means kill Baby B and we certainly weren't going to do that.<br />
<br />
Bob and I went home with pretty mixed emotions. A lot of praying for the best, but planning for the worst. I felt pretty confident that she did not have any chromosome problems, Bob was much less confident. It was a long wait for our next appointment, but the holidays were a good distraction.<br />
<br />
<b>20 week ultrasound:</b> Everybody still seemed to be doing fine. The girls still had CPC's but C's were gone. Baby B still had a cleft (it's not like they go away) and her right foot was clubbed. The doctor said her left foot was not clubbed but did not "look normal". We had a different doctor this time, and she was pretty tight lipped, we had to pry a lot out of her it seemed. She was definitely moving her arms and legs plenty so they were no longer worried about muscle contractures. She was again smaller than her siblings they were both 13 oz and she was only 11oz. It was definitely something they were concerned about no matter the outcome of the amnio. Everything else seemed fine, her heart, kidneys, intestines all looked great (those often have a lot of problems with the chromosome problems). At the end of the ultrasound we did the amniocentesis and were told it would be 10-14 days before we got any results. I thought things went pretty well, but this doctor said she was pretty sure it was a chromosome abnormality.<br />
<br />
While we awaited the results, my sister-in-law lost and delivered her sweet little boy at 25 weeks. Our hearts broke for them and we prayed that we would not suffer their same fate. They think that he had a CMV (cyto-megalo virus) infection. The day of his graveside service (Monday) we got the wonderful news that Baby B's chromosomes looked completely normal. We finally felt like we were in the clear and could buckle down and prepare for her upcoming surgeries, having three babies and one with problems, we even kind of settled on a name for our sweet little girl! (Eliza and call her Ellie) Bob headed off to Florida (Wednesday) for a class and I went back to the doctor the next day.<br />
<br />
<b>23 weeks 5 days ultrasound: </b>Babies A and C looked great. They are growing well and completely healthy. When they got to Baby B and started measuring her head and abdomen I was getting a little nervous. Everything kept saying 19 weeks 1 day, or somewhere in that range. It is really scary when one of the babies is not growing as well as the others, and I really didn't want to have all of these babies come really early. The other babies had been measuring around 24 weeks, so this was a big difference. Then she went to measure the heart rate and could not find a heart beat. She stepped out of the room to get the doctor and started praying that somehow she was wrong, even though I knew she wasn't because Baby B was so small. The doctor came in apologizing for our loss, asking why Bob wasn't there, and explaining that the baby had probably died shortly after our last ultrasound because she wasn't much bigger than last time. She said we would never know the cause of death because that would require an autopsy be done now, and that is not possible when there are two other babies that have to stay in me. She said she thought it was unlikely that the amnio caused her death, because usually when that is the case it is due to infection and you lose the whole pregnancy. I personally think that Baby B was clearly struggling and that even if the amnio was the straw that broke the camels back, it would have happened eventually. I had Ezra with me at the doctor and kept a brave face until about the time we got to the car. I strapped him in, gave him is Kit Kat for being good at the doctor, and turned on the radio so he would be oblivious to my crying, I wasn't ready to talk to him yet.<br />
<br />
It was a hard day, especially with Bob gone. I had to break the news to him over the phone and we both cried, just wishing we could be together. I left Ezra with my sister-in-law for the rest of the weekend and cried the whole way home. I called my Mom on the drive (don't tell, that's illegal here) and Bob told his parents. By the time I got there I had pretty much gotten my act together. I really hate crying in front of people and sweet Bruce and Alicia (my in-laws) hardly made me shed any tears. Friday I did some shopping with my other sister-in-law, which was a nice distraction and had the rest of the day to myself. Saturday felt like forever with Bob and Ezra not getting home until late that night, but we were doing pretty good. I got really nervous going to Stake Conference that night, because I didn't want to talk to anyone. I feel like being pregnant with triplets has given me some kind of celebrity status, and everyone feels the need to come talk to me. I felt okay talking about it at that point, but I still don't feel okay having to tell people about it, it's like living it all over again. I'm crying just typing this!<br />
<br />
The good side of all of this, is like Bob and I keep saying, it's like we got the easy way out. We no longer have to deal with surgeries or braces, two babies seems infinitely easier than three (I know those of you who have twins will tell me it is still no walk in the park), I can breastfeed them both at the same time, and only pump when I want to. I can be so much more independent, and Bob should be able to get more sleep. I should be able to carry these babies longer, now that Baby B is not going to take up any more space, which means they will be bigger and healthier at birth, and if we are lucky we can completely bypass the NICU stage we were planning on.<br />
<br />
All that being said though, I did not want the easy way out. I want my baby back with all of her challenges. Right now the grief comes and goes, and I know it will be that way for a while, I am a little scared for the delivery because I am afraid it will bring on a whole new wave of grief. I just try to think of her up in heaven having a great time with little Crew! I think they passed away within about a week of each other. Crew was 25 weeks and my sweet little one was 21 weeks! We miss her so much!<br />

<img alt="Photo: I found out this morning a friend of mine just lost her baby to fetal hydrops, the same thing we lost our sweet baby Anna Belle to 3 years ago - it hurts :( my heart just breaks for them as I have an idea of what they will be going through in the coming days, weeks, months, and years. Sending lots of love and prayers to their family that they will feel peace. I put this picture and quote together this morning, but I have no idea who originally drew this beautiful image to give them credit - anyone know?" src="http://sphotos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/c0.0.400.400/p403x403/374340_10151401474832173_1353889194_n.jpg" /><br />

But for now I am going to tell you our latest news. I had my egg retrieval yesterday. I had 39 follicles which gave up 19 eggs, 18 of which were mature. Of those 18, 12 fertilized. They froze 8 of them this morning for later use, and are letting the other 4 continue to culture. With any luck we will have 2 good looking embryos to be transferred on Friday or possibly Sunday. Keep us in your prayers! With all the time that we waited, the money that we spent, and the pain we have endured, we cannot wait for another little one or two, so we really hope this works.<br />

This year was Ezra's first year at a Bowling Easter event. He started the day by searching out his Easter basket. I really like this picture of him inspecting his Buzz Lightyear Pez dispenser.</div>

Much to my dislike, EmmaLee started painting Ezra's toenails when he was little. Now every time she re-does her nails he wants his done too. The other day she left everything out and Ezra decided he wanted to do a different color on his own. It may not look like it in these pictures, but he actually did a pretty good job, especially with his toes. He only got a little bit on the carpet and the nails were painted fairly well despite the excess.</div>

Long story short, they ordered some more tests on Bob and basically recommended that we save our money by not doing any more treatment until they determine whether or not his problem is caused by a lack of hormones. I know it's the right thing to do, and if we have to move to IVF it is definitely good because we will need all the money we currently have saved (Our insurance doesn't cover any of it.). It is just so hard to WAIT! Ezra is only getting older, and it really depresses me that he will be so old by the time he gets a sibling. It's really not fair to him, he is such a great kid, but what can you do? I am also scared that we will do IVF and it won't work the first time, and we will have no money for a round two! It is all just so depressing and stressful. I try to have faith in the Lord and his timing, but it is such an emotional roller coaster ride. I don't mean to sound so down, but I just needed to vent! It is so hard to hear Ezra pray every night for a brother or sister (sometimes brother and sister) and know that I have no control over it! Keep praying for us!EmmaLeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04058003848139523407noreply@blogger.com5tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8628600780592952158.post-62687135147122588552012-03-05T21:38:00.001-05:002012-03-05T21:44:22.882-05:00Un-posted Phone Pics!<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">I feel bad that we haven't blogged much lately (or pretty much since we moved), but I never really take pictures because we never do anything that exciting.

It was so wonderful, even if at times I kind of missed when it was just us. Ezra LOVED having Parker and Zoie stay with us and was oh so depressed when they left. Ezra thought it was the best Christmas ever, but when church went for over an hour longer than it was supposed to I was in such a sour mood! I was completely unprepared to entertain a three year old for that long (as was pretty much everyone else there) so everyone was seeming pretty annoyed. A good number of people just got up and left. I felt totally guilty having that attitude about Church especially on Christmas. Pretty lame huh! Luckily I vented and the rest of the day went much better.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

On Christmas Eve we had just put Ezra to bed when Dave came over to return Parker and Zoie's blankets. He knocked then opened the door with a deep "Ho Ho Ho, Merry Christmas". Ezra started shouting "Santa is here, Santa is here!" It was pretty funny, and he wasn't too disappointed when we told him it was just Uncle Dave and that Santa wouldn't come until he was asleep.<br />

I totally forgot all about the spaceship that I bought for them to build, but they enjoyed plenty when I remembered later in the week. Ezra was happy with the day and that was all that mattered!<br />

I had just come inside and was making Ezra's lunch when I noticed a bee on my shoulder. I promptly flicked it away, but I must have stunned it because rather than fly off it landed in this spider web. When I looked over I noticed that a spider was coming out so Ezra and I watched it very quickly wrap up the bee. It was amazing to watch, and creepy to think that there had been a black widow in the house. In the end we killed it and enjoyed the experience. If you click on the pictures they should get bigger and you can really see the details.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

They also had all the cousins sing. We quickly taught Ezra the song and got him all excited about it. As soon as he saw her in the water he started to sing "I like to look for rainbows..." at the top of his lungs. It took us a while to convince him now was not the time to sing, and when the real time came he hardly sang at all. We were all happy to be part of Talya's special day!<br />

On our drive to finally settle in Gridley we stopped to meet up with our friends. They happened to be visiting their grandma who lives at the perfect halfway point for the trip! She owns the Double Eagle Resort at June Lake in the Mammoth Lakes region. She has an awesome cabin that the Van Dusens were staying at that totally had room for us and other family that was visiting (with still more room to spare). As you will see it's in an awesome place and it was a joyous reunion for Emily and Ezra.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

There would have been plenty for us to do, but we were happy to be on our way to Gridley!</div>EmmaLeehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/04058003848139523407noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8628600780592952158.post-16299647598489922992011-12-06T00:28:00.000-05:002011-12-06T00:28:52.426-05:00Utah in July part II<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">The last week of our trip was much more exciting than the first 4 weeks. Four days before my youngest brother Josh's wedding my dad got in an accident. We had been at an FHE with some of my cousins and their families at Gunlock reservoir and afterwards my Dad and brother headed up to Enterprise to drop off my Dad's motorcycle for new tires, or some kind of repair. On the last stretch just before you come into town my Dad hit a deer. Luckily my brother was following him and was able to call 911, stop traffic, and let us know what was going on. It was definitely scary, but in the end my Dad spent one night in the hospital and came home with a broken collar bone, 5 broken ribs and lots of road rash. They said that if he had not had on his helmet he would have died. I saw the helmet and I am pretty sure they are right. So fortunately for us all he was able to go to the wedding. My mom and I took care of his dressing changes, helping him eat, and helping him get around. I took the night shift the night before the wedding, so by the time the reception was over my Mom, Dad and I were exhausted. Luckily my sister took Ezra off my hands so we were able to get some sleep. Thanks Jamie and Tony! Ezra was sad that Grandpa couldn't play because he had "really big owies" but luckily we had already been there a while. Bob got stuck at school and missed the wedding by 3 days, but it was a beautiful wedding and we are happy to have Samantha as part of our family.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />

We spent Sunday night at their wonderful house. (I am jealous of people who have houses, especially people with nice big ones.) I thought it was great the way Avery and Austin acted as if they had just seen Bob yesterday. They were climbing all over him and having a great time. Austin pretty much just seemed scared of me.<br />
<br />
The next day Jared took us to see some cool things while Avery was at school. Then we met up with them for lunch and checked out the new Mormon Battalion Visitors Center. Unfortunately we had to head to LA, fortunately it was to see our new niece <a href="http://lamcdowells.blogspot.com/2011/06/aberdeen-eve-mcdowell.html">Abby</a> who was born that day!<br />

We met some VERY interesting folks, had some great food (like alligator), and were glad we weren't there for too long after sundown. We had a good few hours there, but I won't be too sad if I never get there again!<br />

Then when I lived with Camber, it renewed my wish to go, and now many years later I finally made it. Shortly after we entered the state we drove past GRAVEDIGGER. The boys made us turn around and go back an up close and personal experience.<br />

Ezra got to spend a lot of time with his cousins, and he loved it. I somehow managed to not get any pictures of Ezra with Talya and Keian even though he spent a lot of time with them. He had two sleepovers with them, which were such a nice break. Thanks Jamie and Tony, I owe you one. It was just nice to be around for the comings and goings of the family. I hope we were more of a blessing than a burden in our time there.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br />

While Bob was back in Boston, Ezra and I headed to Utah. We pick up on the 4th of July. We had a great time hanging out with family waiting for the fireworks. Ezra was scared of how loud they were and made me cover his ears the whole time, but other than that we had a blast.<br />
