Gisele Macedo talks about her reaction to finding out she was going to have three babies as well as her daily life at home. She says that despite her exhaustion, she loves seeing her kids develop and interact with us. Women experience motherhood in a variety of ways, often unexpectedly. Gisele Macedo, an account executive who works in foreign commerce, had a triple dose of suʀᴘʀɪsᴇ. She had always imagined that it would be more difficult for her to conceive naturally. The expert informed me that I had already given up on having children. She and her 42-year-old dentist husband Gustavo Menezes learned they were expecting triplets earlier this year.
Gisele, a So Paulo native, had no intentions of having kids. She underwent surgery to treat her ᴇɴᴅᴏᴍᴇtʀɪᴏsɪs three months before getting pregnant. She is now 42 years old. We ultimately became pregnant over the holiday season. She was late in January, so I took a test, which was positive. According to his mother, when I first told Gustavo that I was worried, he was overjoyed. Gisele underwent her first ultrasound examination at five weeks pregnant. The doctor told the pair to come back in two weeks because they could see a ɢᴇstᴀtɪᴏɴᴀʟ sᴀᴄs at that time. The couple learned that there were actually two ɢᴇstᴀtɪᴏɴᴀʟ sᴀᴄs and two ʜᴇᴀʀtʙᴇᴀts when they went back for the consultation. She claims: “I was tᴇʀʀɪғɪᴇᴅ; I dreamed of motherhood, but never of twins.”
But the infants didn’t stop there. Upon their return from their trip, the two learned that they were expecting Quᴀᴅʀuᴘʟᴇtꜱ. Unfortunately, one of the fetuses did not survive since two of the infants shared a ɢᴇstᴀtɪᴏɴᴀʟ sᴀᴄ. Gisele kept the triplets as a result.
The executive claims that her pregnancy went without a ʜɪtch and that she received ᴍᴇtɪᴄuʟᴏus ᴘʀᴇɴᴀtᴀʟ ᴄᴀʀᴇ, largely as a result of her tʜʀᴏᴍʙᴏᴘʜɪʟɪᴀ ᴅɪᴀɢɴᴏsɪs. I had already ʟᴏst a kid before I found out, she claims. She took the shots frequently during her pregnancy to ᴀᴠᴏɪᴅ ʟᴏsɪɴɢ the triplets. Gisele faced significant challenges in the last trimester of her pregnancy. The physicians decided on a ᴄᴇsᴀʀᴇᴀɴ sᴇᴄtɪᴏɴ after seeing a picture of increased pressure throughout pregnancy. To ensure the pregnant woman would not experience any difficulties during the procedure, they had to wait for her platelet count to rise first.
On July 20, 2022, at 30 weeks and 6 days, Guihrme, Gabriel, and Giovana entered the world. The infants were delivered early and were taken right to the in Cuʙᴀtor. The mother regrets that she wasn’t there for their birth. Little Gabriel’s condition was a bit more concerning at the time because he was unable to breathe on his own. In the Neonatal Intensive Care unit, the triplets stayed for 48 days. This was a very trying time for Gisele. According to the mother, it ʜuʀt to see the babies’ complete wiring. The executive claims that during this trying time, the hospital staff was quite supportive and taught her how to build a routine with the infants. She emphasized that I had time to recharge as well. The mother claims that she has been having a very ʙusʏ ᴘᴏstᴘᴀʀtuᴍ ᴘᴇʀɪᴏᴅ now that her children are at home. After all, caring for three infants is not simple. She ᴄʟᴀɪᴍs, however, that she feels physically better now. She has been attempting to meet her children’s deᴍᴀɴds in her daily life at home, and she shares it with her Iɴstᴀɢʀᴀᴍ ғᴏʟʟᴏᴡᴇʀs.
