Having Triplets: From A Mother's Perspective
When the Doctor told you that are going to have triplets, I suppose you had a small anxiety attack. But how is it possible? There are no triplets in our family. We are not ready for this huge responsibility. Well many parents will attest that having multiple children at the same time is not just desirable but it is considered as a blessing. In today’s high tech world, raising more than one child at once is so easy if you have a philips baby monitor handy. It gives you peace of mind when you are not with them.
In the old days there wasn’t such devices to help us with our children and we had to slog it out the hard way, because that was the only way we knew how. Today it’s a different picture, it’s LCD thermometers and state of the art feeding accessories, and of course the wonder of wonders, the disposable nappies.
But I would not want to give up a monitor. No I think by far it is a wonderful tool to assist us today in raising our children the best we can. I can save a child’s life and what can be better than having such a device in our homes.
One can become so caught up with raising your triplets that you forget to take time to spend on yourself and to pamper and recharge the battery. Luckily your partner is a romantic and notices that you do not have energy and look a bit green around the gills. You need a break, and soon. So he books a vacation to a far off Island where you both could relax and nurture each other.
Probably the best idea ever to take a break and you feel like a new person. Your color is back and you have an appetite again. Just when you think that life can’t get any better, you spouse herds you into a small jewelry shop where he shyly gives you an eternity ring to fit on. You are really shocked and dazed and are left for words.
These rings are so special and signifies a love that will last forever, hence the word eternity. They are so popular these days and you thank your lucky stars that you have such a romantic and attentive partner.
You booked a course to take some parenting classes, but because you were so exhausted you did not see yourself going. Now that you have rested you will gladly attend this classes because you hear that they will deal with all sorts of new techniques, on how to raise more than one child without having a breakdown. Can’t wait!
