Today has been a long, long day. First, it started out while I was out at breakfast with my sisters and hubby. We met a couple that had two year old twins on top of a 4 year old girl, so pretty much the same situation as we will be in. The lady just looked at me with a look of "oh I'm so sorry". The first thing she asked is if I had help and then she continued to say "I'm not going to lie to you, it's not easy". Then, she and her husband couldn't agree on how to tell me what it's like having 3 kids so close. On their way out, she asked if I drank and then continued to say, "you might want to start".
On top of that, the cashier at the grocery store found out I was having 3 under 17 months and she just said how sorry she was and how much work it is going to be while the lady in line behind me just sat their laughing. So I am getting lots and lots of confidence-building stories and reactions from all different sorts of people. I know it's going to be hard but there's nothing I can do about it now so bring it on!
I had my last doctor appointment today. So far this whole pregnancy has been great and there have been no complications with the twins... until today. For the past 3 months or longer the twins have both been vertex (head down) the whole time. Monday, they were still both head down which is ideal for a twin delivery. Then, 3 days later (today), I find out that baby B decided to flip and is now breach. Of course that has to happen the day before I'm supposed to deliver. And how did I not feel a 6+ lb baby completely flip inside my incredibly packed belly? Anyways, I am still going to try doing a natural delivery but there is a greater risk now of an emergency C-section. So wish me luck and I'll post pictures as soon as I can! YEAH!!! They're almost here :)
PS- Sorry if I do not return phone calls or respond much in the next little bit. I get side tracked very easy... I've been bad at it already the past few weeks and I don't think I'll get much better! It's not personal I promise :)

You'll be great! Just think how lucky you are that YOU were chosen to care for 3 of our Father's most precious children!
Good luck tomorrow - we'll be thinking of you and anxiously awaiting pictures!
You are an amazing woman and will be a great mom to three!! People are stupid and say stupid things to pregnant women. If you have to have a c-section it isn't too bad of a recovery. Just walk as much as you can after. That helped me feel better. Can't wait to see pictures.
Good Luck! You are a great mommy and will handle twins beautifully :) You hold your head high and with confidence, you can do it or Heavenly Father wouldn't have had this in store for you. He has a way of allowing us to do things we view as impossible, to show that we can do anything with His help! We love you guys. You will be in our prayers!
Good luck Jocelyn! 3 kids under 17 months is sure to be a circus, but I have a feeling you're going to have the time of your life. Hope all goes well and congratulations!!
We've been thinking of you guys and you're in our prayers. You'll do great!! You'll be up for the joys and challenges of it all I'm sure. We can't wait to meet your lil boys!
You're one of those amazing moms that I want to be like, so I'm not worried about you. There will definitely be crazy days, but just think, you'll have 3 little ones that all still want to cuddle with you!
Good luck, good luck, good luck! I can't wait to see pictures!
You'll do great Jocelyn. And don't be afraid to have Ryan help more. It will be hard but most things that are worth anything are hard. And the reward is wonderful. Can't wait to hear how everything went!
I think if anyone could handle it, it would be you!!!
