Hey guys, just wanted to give a brief update. Tucker and Tanner were born and passed away last week on Tuesday morning and Wednesday morning, in that order. The doctors have told us that this situation with triplets maybe happens 1-2 times a year worldwide, so there is really no set plan for it.
Somehow, miraculously, they were able to stop labor after Tanner was born and Theo has now made it a week and is still alive and doing well in the womb. He has received two rounds of steroids to help grow his lungs and Morgan is on a constant IV of magnesium sulfate to slow smooth muscle reflexes and help with his neurological function in the event be is born.
At this point, it is really a waiting game. He could be in there another month, or another day. There's really no way to tell. The 24 week mark was a critical one to get to and we got there today and GHS has one of the best level 3 NICUs in the country. The main thing to watch at this point is infection. If she develops sepsis, they will have to force labor.
So, for now we are just hoping and praying that he hangs out in there as long as possible. This has been a crazy experience and we still haven't really been able to absorb everything.
I can't thank you all enough for the good thoughts, prayers, vibes, and karma sent our way. He's named after my grandfather and me, so I know he wants to fight for this.
Definitely in our prayers.
