Not to much has changed. I am still hanging out in the hospital doing bed rest. I have now been on bedrest for 4 weeks. I think these are the longest four weeks of my life. I mentioned in my last post that they were worried about Baby B. They did ultrasounds yesterday and today to check the blood flow through the umbilical chord. It isn't looking any worse, but it isn't getting better. So if we can stay about the same for a little longer I can keep baking these babies. I only have to get to 30 weeks now. That is less than 2 weeks. I can't believe I could have these babies in less than 2 weeks. This pregnancy has already seemed longer than 40 weeks and I am not even to 30 weeks.
Matt and I went on a tour of the NICU yesterday. Can I just say overwhelming and depressing. It was so sad to see all of those little babies hooked up to all those tubes and everything. I knew my babies would be in the NICU, but I didn't know how much it was going to affect me. I hope I can handle all this. They told me with the babies being born this early and with them being this small, my goal is to shoot for taking them home around their due date. That isn't until the end of September. That seems like an eternity away. That means I will be gone from home almost 4 whole months. I am so ready to be home it isn't even funny. I just hope the time goes fast and that everything turns out for the better and we can cross some of those weeks off of the time schedule. Thanks again to all of you for your comments and support. You will never know how much it means.

Good luck! Thanks for keeping us all posted. You are such a trooper. I can't even imagine all of the emotions that you must be going through. I hope that Baby B is able to get everything that he needs.
Have you come up with names? That is a monumental task in itself to figure out 3 boy names.
Good luck with everything! I am praying for you.
Brook good luck with everything. Let me know if I can help at all. Do you need me to take the girls for a day or longer? Let me know. My girls would love it.
Keep baking those babies.
Love you. K
You look great, not hardly big enough for three boys! We hope that all continues to go well and the babies grow and develop quickly in preparation for the upcoming delivery. Once you do go into labor, will they do a c-section? We are also interested in your names, how fun to pick three! Hang in there - Brooke
p.s. - do you have NICU insurance for your babies? My sister-in-law had it for her twins and it covered everything and paid them extra. I'm sure you've already looked into it though, if not, let me know and I'll get you the name of the insurance guy. Looks like you'll need it. Brooke
Hey Brook! How are ya! We passed by the hospital on Tuesday on our way up to East Canyon to take the girls boating and Craig and I talked about breaking you out of that joint and taking you wakeboarding with us!! We love ya! We are thinking about you! Maybe we can bring Matt dinner in the hospital! Let us know how we can help! Love ya,
Craig and Erin
