Hello - 11+3 pg with triplets - still in shock

Naturally conceived, no history of multiples in either family, and we already have a 2yr old daughter - so rather surprised and if I'm honest, not entirely happy. We only wanted one more to complete our family, plus I'm 37 so hardly fresh as a daisy! Still early days so I'm still swaying from thinking we could manage three more, to thinking it would be ridiculous to attempt it. But until we see the consultant on Monday we don't really have a clue what our options are - except the two very obvious ones - keep or don't keep.

Sorry if I sound a bit negative but hormones are all over the shop, my mw is on holiday, only found out when away from home due to a bleed so there's been no support so far. Parents are saying they'll support us whatever we choose but have been making fairly obvious comments like "well, if you were younger and it was your first pg..." and "you can say you miscarried, everyone will understand" etc etc which isn't very helpful. Not sure what I want to hear but I'm finding online forums the only place where I can let it out - we haven't told any friends yet so I feel rather isolated.

Thanks for listening x

You will never forget Honeymama, but life is full of making decisions, so easy some hard, this hopefully has been the hardest one you have had to make. As Mars said, be kind now to you, your bean will grow with love, take very good care and let us know how you are. xxx
