Part 4 – What to Expect When You Are Expecting: How Can You Prepare When You Are Pregnant With Triplets For Hiring Caregiving Support?

I am going to continue my series on What to Expect When You Are Expecting by discussing what types of caregiving support you may want to get when you are pregnant with triplets.

Are you weak as a jellyfish from being on bed rest while pregnant with triplets?

Are you tired from traveling back and forth to the Neonatal Intensive Care Unit (NICU)?

Are your emotions like a roller coaster from the triplets health conditions?

Are you stressed because of lack of sleep and hormonal imbalances?

Such is the life after giving birth.

But it doesn’t have to be this stressful.

The solution to your stress and getting balance back into your life is called . . .

A Nanny Service

I was fortunate that my church gifted me with some money to hire a night time nanny for 4 days a week for about a 6 week period.

My husband and I would switch off the nights when she was here. In other words, one night he would stay up with the nanny to feed and prepare bottles and such with the nanny’s help, next night I would.

And yes, the other nights we would both be up with the babies.

But I did not think about the nanny service until after the babies were born and around 6 weeks old.  It was very difficult at that point to search for a nanny service and interview the nannies. And then I ended up paying WAY too much.


pregnant with triplets

I really would suggest to anyone who is pregnant with triplets or more and planning on using a nanny service to do your research while you are pregnant, so that you will be ready when you need someone.

Remember to make sure the nanny service is reputable. Check references of the nanny service. Does the nanny service have a good reputation?

Find out what the billing process is before hand, so you are prepared.

Do you pay the nanny directly or the agency? Do you have to pay taxes for the nanny or are they independent contractors?

You’ll want a nanny service that does:

1. Complete background checks on the nannies

2. Allow you to review the nannies’ resume

3. Provide reviews of the nanny from other moms

4. Allow you to access the nannies’ references

After I no longer needed a nanny, I found a nanny service that is nationally known and respected and meets all of these criteria plus more.

Check it out for yourself.

Part 2 Worrying What To Expect When Expecting Multiples: How Do You Get Your Babies To Sleep Through The Night?

Today I would like to continue my series on What To Expect When Expecting Multiples.

Now, hold on to your hats . . . but newborn babies don’t sleep at night!

Really???

Yes…

Now I am just joking around, but really when there are 2, 3, 4 or more babies at home it is very crazy and difficult to feed them, bath them and get them to sleep through the night.

I know from experience!

After my quadruplets left the NICU (Neonatal Intensive Care Unit) of the hospital at 3 weeks old I had to quickly figure out how to care for four babies at the same time.

At first, I tried to feed a baby on demand, or what worked out to be one baby every hour!

Insane!

No one was sleeping including the babies.

I learned the hard way that you don’t want to be feeding a baby every hour. There will be no time to get everything done that is needed when you just had a multiple birth.

Or for you to get any sleep.

Add into the equation, pumping or breast feeding, and you will truly lose your mind.

What I realized though was that babies in the NICU are put on either 3 hour or 4 hour feeding schedule for a reason. This is much easier on the babies’ digestion and will truly save your sanity especially if you are bringing home triplets or more!

Plus the babies will sleep better and more on schedule.  Pretty soon, the time between feedings at night will stretch out to 6 to 8 hours, and then the babies are sleeping through the night.  Yeah!

So does worrying about what to expect when expecting multiples have you stressing about . . .

  1. How to feed your babies . . .
  2. How to get them to sleep through the night . . .
  3. How to bathe and care for the babies.

Well, there is good news.

One of the ways to be less stressed and more prepared is to read about different ways to get the babies on a feeding and wake schedule before they arrive. So where can you learn about the feeding/wake schedules?

So where can you learn about the feeding/wake schedule?

Once place is a book called On Becoming Baby Wise: Giving Your Infant the Gift of Nighttime Sleep. This book offers basic information on how to slowly get the babies to be on a schedule you choose, thus sleeping when you want them to sleep . . . which is night time. J

Also, if you are just stressed in general about what to expect when expecting multiples, then do some stress reduction techniques.  You want to remain calm and in charge when either pregnant or taking care of small children.

If you have 5 minutes a day, then there is a great resource for stress reduction in a simple format called “Overcome the 3 Deadly Mistakes That Cause Stress, Overwhelm and Burnout ebook Package”

Inside this package, you will discover:

  1. What the 3 Deadly Mistakes that Cause Stress and Burnout are
  2. The Three Big Secrets That Allow You to Avoid and Recover From Stress and Burnout
  3. An Amazing Simple Technique to Having Less Stress and Overwhelm in Your Life 5 Minutes From Now
  4. How to Reduce Your Stress Instantly Just by Listening to “Ancient Wisdom” Guided Relaxation™ Audio 5 minutes a Day

So do yourself a favor and just click on this link to check it out for yourself.

And remember it includes a 5-minute guided relaxation tape to help you relax and get some sleep! Newborn multiples quickly show you how precious sleep is . . .and well worth many times the cost of the package.  Check it out for yourself.

Miracle Mindshift! Success Stories

Kevin Wilke "During the time I was using the Miracle Mindshift, out of nowhere significantly increased the money into my business while at the same significantly decreased the time I was working in my business.

So now, this is something that came out of nowhere because of this program.

And now... a new branding opportunity has opened and is going to be a great new income opportunity and a bigger business!"

- Kevin Wilke

Hear Kevin's LIVE Success Story:

Lynn Benjamin"Something so beautiful happens each day as I listen to the daily Miracle Mindshift. The best way I can describe the experience is simultaneously getting juiced up a vibrational level, or more, while getting settled right into, grounded into the center of my being.

Today, while listening to day 15, SEVERAL lights in the mansion turned on. A rapid download of aha's begin to make my heart feel different. I'm integrating now, and can say that I will now experience the four directions on a physical level, rather than having the four directions as just concepts. How part of the earth we are. I look forward to a deepening of this physical connection with the four directions.

Thank you for sharing your wisdom, I'm so grateful!"

- Lynn Benjamin

StacyQuinn"I went through the day 11 content, and I was hearing the same critical chatter in my mind. I realized how these rules, this previous programming was resisting my affirmations.

When I did my verbal affirmations, the chatter in my head was actually "talking" over my verbal affirmations. I was inches away from a mirror, looking directly in my own eyes, saying my affirmations and the voice in my head said:
"How could a gift to the world be so ugly?"

I was surprised by my own reaction. I started laughing. I mean belly laughing. I'm still laughing as I write this.

I don't know who that dude was but he's very rude and he's not my friend. I now know what he sounds like and how he talks.

I wanted to send this email to thank you. Because I'm not listening to that jerk anymore."

- Stacy Quinn

Monica_Leccese"I completed my first "Mindshift" after having battled the cacophony of voices and Master Trickster that seem to come along with changing thought patterns. I devoted a portion of each day to the practice, although not the same time each day: to the imaging, writing, and speaking of my declarations and affirmations. I recorded each "Gift" that I received and was sure to be grateful for each one, every day. By the end of the month my declarations were manifesting although not in an "overwhelming" manner. Still...at the end...I was so very grateful. I decided to commence another "shift" ...   I would create a circle, image my declarations, state them...but on a lesser scale than a full practice. After that decision I started to create a circle where I would light a flame to each direction. .......and that's when it happened......I shifted. I can only describe the feeling as the most amazing I have ever experienced: time, the world, my perspective...stopped; the energy rushing through me was so empowering it was nearly overwhelming. I had never before felt so alive, so en pointe in the moment, so...on...purpose. I had rubbed the magic lantern and the genie has held my hand ever since. I have been getting EVERYTHING I have been asking for, to the EXACT degree I have asked. Remember...you get what you ask for."
