As a young person, I never imagined that certain days of my life would change me forever. I can remember only a few bad days in the past 10 years significant enough to leave a lasting impression. There was the day that I got a call that my father had passed away from cancer.  I couldn’t travel to the funeral because my quadruplet babies were too little. There was the Christmas Eve that my daughter, Makayla was in the hospital and we were told she could die.  She needed emergency brain surgery to repair the failing shunt in her head. And there is the day I helplessly watched my beloved mother... (Read More ...)

Are you a mom of twins, triplets, quadruplets or more? Maybe you have a singleton, as us moms of multiples call you We do have one thing in common and that is keeping our little ones busy especially during the long hot summers.

Another worry you can have about what to expect when expecting is organizing your help after the babies come home. When I was pregnant with quadruplets I didn’t even think about if I would have help, much less how to organize it. To be honest, I did not know what to expect when expecting my quadruplets. Wish I had known the information I am sharing with you when I was still pregnant. I would have planned much better! No matter how much you read from the experts, the ones who know the most about what to expect when expecting are Moms of multiples. As it turned out, I learned and received the information... (Read More ...)

This is another post in this series of what to expect when expecting multiples. In an earlier post, we discussed the kinds of questions that arise while you are pregnant with triplets. One question I worried about when expecting my multiples was “How do I get the babies from place to place by myself?” Well it came down to basically two essentials: car seats that fit in the car and an easily maneuverable stroller. 1. The Car. A car is a necessity to get to most places these days. And when you’re pregnant with triplets is a great time to figure out your options.  So you have seating for the... (Read More ...)
