Triplet on the floor????

Julz I'm not saying everyone should judge them and if ever you see them, tell them off.

But I dont have kids of my own and I am so intrigued by things!!!!!
EG the other little girl has an abcess on her arm from the injection she got last week.
Mom is not concerned, doesnt think it's bad. I told her it looks like an abcess (as she wasnt sure what it was) and that it should be checked out just in case.
She was going to take the baby to the clinic, but her sister called and said she was going to visit, so mom decided not to take the baby.

For ME, I would be worried and take the baby. It just facinates me how different people are.

As for the looks thing, as I said, I dont have kids so I wouldnt know how I'd feel if my child didnt resemble myself or my husband.
That's why I ask on here, cos you are all mommies!!

Anyway. Mommy went back to work on Tuesday and I think it was a good thing. She is a lot more affectionate with all the babies now

Megs I doubt it. Dylan looks nothing like me.

Meags there are other issues here and they may be valid issues for the parents. Issues that do need to be addressed but they will have to do that themselves.

We can never judge other parents as we really do not know what they have been through and even if we think their actions are unjust, it would be unfair to comment on them without knowing the big picture.

None of my friends would have thought I was struggling. As mom's we are amazing at covering up what we don't want others to know for fear of being judged.

I can't see the issue being the similiarties in what the kids look like - to me all little babies look like shrivelled up little old people, so I would struggle to see that as an issue.

Sure what one expects and what arrives, can be a bit jarring, and that might have an affect.

I thought Georgia was a boy - and when they dangled her over the curtain and she was Georgia, it was a bit of a problem for me as I had mentally created this boy child in my head and already started identifying with him as a boy.

It took me a good 6 - 8 weeks to really "bond" with her as she was a bit foreign for me.

But everyone is different and we do not know what goes on between them when the door is closed at night, or other issues that might have occurred in the past.

I want to ask....

The one girl looks like mommy and the boy looks like daddy and tiny baby apparently looks like granny.

Could this also cause distance that she doesnt look like the parents?

Also, until birth, they were expecting 2 boys and 1 girl...and then it became 2 girls and 1 boy

Oh my word!!! That is just disgusting from the dad!!! I really cant imagine how parents can favor some kids and leave the others to be and then to assume your child has CP!!!

Listen I know 2 triplet mommies and they cope very well. The one set turned 6 months old today and she only has help during the day during the week and do everything alone on weekends and only have help from her 2 boys (6 and 8 years old) and then her husband. Then the other set is 20 months old and the mother work full time and have a day nanny and night nanny. They are all happy.

I'm not saying its not hard work but if your heart is not into it then that can create problems. As a multiple mommy myself you just learn to deal with the tasks and cope. You dont try to, you just do!

I seriously think this parents have an issue with the 3rd baby!!!

I hope the situation improves and the third baby finds her place .... poor lamb chop - can I have her? Just sneak her out in your backpack, you say they keep ignoring her, maybe they won't notice for a few days .....

Hi RM

I wouldnt have a clue if there are issues. On the surface, nothing seems wrong.

I completely agree that triplets is insane. They take every second of your time as 1 is always awake.

BUT, they do have 24 hour help and from 7pm-7am the night nanny works alone as they only wake once per night.

Mom started back at work yesterday
