I really dont know what to say--except-- .Wow!!! 3 baby's at 17, you will definately have your hands full. You must be a very strong person---for .God does not put anything more on us than we can bear. All I can say is good luck and .God bless you. Hope you find some support here, in your neigborhood and with your friends.

Ok i'm gonna second the wow, but I just have to say, I hate when ppl say that.



my mom's friend said that to her after my mom found out she had this very rare .V.E.R.Y painful disease that nothing she takes will help her with the pain. And whenever my mom's friend says that, my dad just goes "oh well jeez thanks god... :roll:"

i just never understood why ppl say that.

Hi. I had triplets at 17 last year. They are now 10 months old, but I can remember all to well the days when it felt like everything was against me. My mom was really annoyed at the fact I was keeping them and I refused to have an abortion, but I did have the father around for a while until his parents convinced him that he would be better off if he left us. If you ever want someone to talk to just let me know I am here. Feel free to pm me. :)

My doctor predicted im going to have to go on bed rest earlier than some do, because of my size...Im 5'1...He talked about fetal reduction, but the thought of chosing one of my babies to terminate kills me! Im honestly getting excited...Really excited...Putting aside the fact that I am now fat, gas-y, moody, and have a constant back ache...It has been the best expeiriance ever...Im having boys... The doctor did a cvs to check and make sure they were all healthy, in case fetal reduction became an option I was willing to consider...Im having identical twins, and one fraternal....The fraternal one has a heart murmmur and mitral valve prolapse, both of which I have had surgery for...Its kinda weird, I now understand the worry my parents have for me...Though im not quite ready to admit that to them yet.... I have been to every doctors appt by myself... They are starting to come around...My mom is willing to shop with me now....But will not do any "official baby stuff" im taking it slow with her...Like people have told me, sooon she'll realize the boys are perfect and she will be able to love them...I hope..Until then im on cloud nine by myself...I cant wait!!!

I am not having more than one but girl I have to hand it to you. You are a bigger woman than I to take all this on. I believe that I would do it, if it came down to it. I am having only one baby and my husband isn't too keen on helping out or being around and all I want to do is cry about it.

You seem so strong at 17. Good luck to you.

I'm very impressed by you. You seem to know what you want and ave decided to do the best you can. First i'm sure you won't but don't let anyone talk you into anything you don't want to do. It's your body and your babies. I'm sorry it seems like everyone is making this harder for you. I can't imagine how difficult it will be but you can do it. You already love your babies and I believe as things progress your mom will see how much you need her and support you more. I have three little girls (not triplets) and I know how tough that is. So my hats off to you. As for the father maybe he'll come around once those little guys are here. If not then I know you'll do fine without him. All my best to you and if you ever need to chat or vent feel free to pm.

How far along are you??? I didnt' catch that

I had a set of twins first then a set a triplets. I think you will be fine. For the first few months, you most likely won't get any sleep. My triplets all had different feeding times. I rarely got any sleep. They are 3 years old now. Things started to get better once they all was able to sleep through out the night. Just make sure you have someone to help you out during the first few months.

Wow you sound like your doin great so far will be harder when there born but youll do well its my dream to have twins or tripplets but it will never happen for me well done

Dang, I thought my situationw was bad. I ws 14 when I had my daughter, it was something I dont regret at all though. I couldnt imagine having 3 at once. Sorry about the father hopefully he'll get is head on start, just remember he is the 1 missing out. My experience turned out for the best, im now 17 with a 3 yr old. I do though in the future want twins, a boy and girl. Well best of luck, if you ever need to talk u can email me. Where are u from?

As I would always say to my homegirls who got pregnant like me "its not gonna be easy,but its gonna be worth it".

I had a baby last year. I was 19 when I found out I was pregnant. My boyfriend wanted me to have an abortion but I was so agaisnt it and I chose to have my daughter. My dad is passed away but my mom and my family were very supportive of my decision and my boyfriends family wasn't happy at all. He didn't speak to his parents for a good month and his grandparents wouldn't talk to him and when they would see me they would'nt even acknowledge me. I decided then I wasn't putting up with that and that I was proud of that baby and that no matter what the situation I was going to be the best mom ever to that lil baby. My boyfriend didn't treat me well when I was pregnant and he would rather go to the bars and hang out with his friends and i'm sure he messed around than spend time with me and our baby who at the time I was still pregnant with. I remember being so sad and crying all the time...But it only made me feel I had a stronger bond with my baby because she was going to be there for me always, and I felt like I wasn't ever going to let her down. Just because her dad was acting like a coward I wasn't about to act that way. When I had her everyone came around. His grandma that wouldn't even acknowledge me came and visited us at the hospital. I just figured I could care less about these people because they were going to be the ones missing out...Not me!! You are so brave to be having twins, I give you tons of props...I have one and it is hard, but definately well worth it and very rewarding. Being a mom is wonderful! Yes stressful but they are yours and that makes it great. About your boyfriend he will come around...But by then it may be to late...You have come all this way without him don't turn back! Things didn't work out with me and my boyfriend and of course it hurts and I still am hurting but he is the one missing out not me. I feel you are doing the right thing...Things will work out for you and you will meet someone someday who will treat you right and stick by you no matter what....Good luck!!! Keep me updated!! Pm me anytime if you ever need to talk!!! Again good luck!
