As you can see its been a while since I've updated this blog. TG the triplets are all beautiful and doing very well.
The names are: Tali, Shir, and Liron (Girl Girl Boy)
We had discovered, at about 6 weeks old, that Shir was born without a thyroid. She was displaying typical symptoms of a swelling stomach, refused to suck, constipated, and slept most of the time.
The hospital routinely perform thyroid tests, but for some reason they missed Shir - they did test the other two. We were very lucky that a locum Pediatrician insisted on a thyroid test, and this is how we discovered it.
Shir was immediately put onto Altroxin, and miraculously, she started recovering within days. After two week of starting the Altroxin, she was home. She has caught up very nicely.
