TRIPLET/ NICU parents- the breakup & coming back together..

[@hopegarrett7710]

My daughter is handicapped was born with a tumor on her spine had surgery at 1 month old and almost died. She is wheelchair bound and has Type 1 diabetes. Prayers for you it does get better. My daughter is 14 now and living her best life🎉🎉🎉

The whole air about Brax has changed! I feel like he’s present. Totally different from the guy that was driving back and forth to the hospital because he HAD to! I feel like he wants to be exactly where he is. Good for the two of you! I’m actually looking forward to your journey now! BRAVO TO BOTH OF YOU!!!❤

Having a healthy baby as a first time mom is stressful and sleep deprivation is hard enough. I can only imagine how mentally and emotionally difficult it could be. I’m glad you guys are in a better place.❤️

With my 23 weeker twins, one was 5 months in NICU and the other one didn’t survive the NICU. The continuous PICU times too with the survivor was like going back to NICU over and over for at least two years. That whole ordeal broke my 12 year marriage in a million pieces. Like I always say, my now ex husband, my child and me survived, but the marriage didn’t. We recovered after a divorce during Covid time, and now I have another beautiful daughter with someone else and both my ex and myself remade our lives and are good friends and cop aren’t like family should, just a bigger somewhat complex family now. However, I wish we both would have been able to get help at the time and somehow fix it. Everyone’s journey is different, but I am very happy for you two and the fact that you were able to maturely stay strong and made it back to each other. One thing is for sure, together or apart, you are family for life, anyone else comes into the stablished family. There is no time for other drama when you have medically fragile children. So. May God bless your marriage and your family forever

[@Brianna7104]

You two were truly just surviving. I don’t think anybody could’ve blame you for separating. I’m so glad to hear that you’ve reconciled and are stronger than ever, that’s amazing! ❤

[@deannahaynes1668]

We went through this with our one baby. It is truly a complex trauma. I feel like I didn’t start breathing until we left the NICU. I felt like I didn’t recognize my partner. Or myself. I felt out of my body. In a constant state of panic. Im a nurse- it didn’t help. I don’t even see how it could be possible for the relationship to not end up on the back burner / suffering. Props to you both for coming back together- that is all you can do and y’all are doing great.

[@AlyssaHeaster]

Hearing your parental experience in such a traumatic stay is so helpful for other parents. And family to better understand to help friends in this. Thank you for your vulnerability. This is helping me understand what my best friend has just gone through/in. In a different medical thing of course. But thank you…… ❤

[@caroldepaul2497]

I can’t even imagine 🥲Relationships are a lot of work but 3 babies in medical emergencies can be unbelievably impossible! You two are strong & amazing parents ! God bless you & your beautiful family !

[@kristinevehrenkamp6049]

It's actually so nice to see this discussion because soooo much on media about kids and multiple births look so nice and all figured out that you think you are doing something wrong in your own life. So thank you so much for being raw and honest.

[@ninakaiser2930]

It makes me very happy you overcame so much and got back together! As a nurse (also in pediatrics for some time) I have seen so many families falling apart in similar situations. It’s so much and takes such a huge toll. I really hope both of you are able to process all the medical trauma and fully heal. Really no parents should go through what you had to go through. I feel what you shared could be very helpful for other parents in similar situations! To see they are not alone with all of their challenges.

[@sydneybrooks9109]

Y’all were meant for each other, I’ll ALWAYS root for y’all!! When you said y’all broke up i knew exactly why. I couldn’t imagine the stress that you’ve been through in the last few years and still managing a healthy relationship. So glad y’all are doing better now !

[@shellygreen3014]

You two had more thrown at you than anyone I have ever heard of…you are both rock star parents and even doing this video is probably helping you…I really hope you continue to figure it out together….you belong together and it will mean everything to your kids

[@braxtonjfuller]

It was almost a therapy session. We had to turn the camera off because we just kept letting things out lol!. Thank you for the support!!

[@xzAllisonxz]

You all are incredible. I can't even imagine the stress, the trauma, the pain you've been through. You're 100% right about your life as parents being rare, especially for 3 NICU medically fragile babies. Being so amazing and yet rare, would you ever consider doing a TV show if asked? Have you been asked? I'd watch for sure. Understandable if you wouldn't do a show, I was just curious.

[@elizabethkoobs1060]

[@missytyrrell1]

To go through what you did - unimaginably hard. To be able to reflect on that, and have the strength to come back together? Incredible. Those boys got exactly the parents they needed. X

[@dawnmerlino5491]

Just covid alone changed so many lives. Toss in 3 medically fragile preemies and its a miracle all around you 2 are as good as you are. Not just good but caring for your boys with medical situations most of us could never handle. You are both awesome!! ❤

[@shariwagner3002]

👵💜 Always remember, on an airplane, you always put the oxygen mask on yourself first! Thank you so much for sharing your home and family. That can't be easy either. It is so good to see you together. You are so young going through all of this. Most couples only have one baby in icu and you had to do it threefold. Just remembering everything the doctors and nurses told you must have been very hard.Ezzy has progressed rapidly since he has been.home and still needs a lot of extra care. You are both remarkable parents. You are so loving with the boys and patient. 💜💜💜👶👶👶

[@lilianaramirez5441]

My first daughter was born 5lbs 2oz and had to be in the nicu for 5 days. It completely broke me with the amount of guilt of why my daughter didn’t grow enough inside me. I can’t even imagine what y’all had to go through. Thank you for sharing your story and giving us your insights.

So sorry you went through the nicu experience. Never discounting it because it is unimaginable. Sending love to you!

[@littleway24601]

This is so admirable of you two. The boys need you together, to put the other before themselves, to be witnesses of virtue. Statistically, it’s so true and important that children need a mother and a father committed to each other. Rooting for you!

[@nikkis7375]

I was 5 years old when I told my mom I wish she could turn back time and not marry my abusive dad even though I knew I wouldn’t have been born. Grew up terrified and have ptsd from having a mom and dad together. So it’s not always better but I am wishing the very best for this family ❤

[@christinabrown7238]

I found you guys from your pregnancy announcement and have followed ever since! I felt your ups and downs through the videos but know I couldn’t even imagine the things you all were going through. I was always rooting for you guys through it. I am a KC girl as well and have separated parents, the way we can find people in the world to connect with on things through facebook like having multiples or nicu babies must be such a great tool now. Going to continue following for your family and to see your boys grow and overcome all the obstacles! ❤️

The amount that you two have worked through as a couple is commendable and something a lot of couples don't have the maturity to do. Doing it in the face of sooo much trauma....well....I hope you are both so proud of what you have done/ are doing. And I hope you are both getting help dealing with all of the trauma you have faced. The admiration is real!

[@MiltonGoinsHome]

I watched you guys about a year ago for the first time. You totally impressed me then because you were so focused on taking care of the little ones. But I could feel that stress in your videos too. I haven't watched since then, but scrolled through my subscriptions tonight because you came to my mind and I wondered how everyone was doing. I'm not surprised by what happened in your relationship, but so very pleased that you're working it all out. You two have been through a boatload in the last year. Keep up the fantastic work with each other and raising your little ones.

[@tammynielsen4212]

You both suffer complex ptsd this is common in nicu parents. Most end up with ptsd but because you had 3 to deal with. It's good to see you were able to come back together many don't survive the nicu experience. Everyones nicu experience is different you can't compare yours to anyone elses experience. Am happy for your beautiful family.

[@christinekeay8456]

You’re right, not one of us can fully understand the trauma and stress you two have been through. I am in awe of what you deal with, anyone would have buckled under that pressure, but you two have grown through this and had the courage and maturity to face your personal difficulties and make every effort to resolve them. So glad you found the way back to each other. Wishing your family love and healing ❤️

[@lisarueve4506]

[@lynnemac1402]

You are such a lovely couple and Im so happy for you that you have worked together to make your relationship stronger. What you have both been through is so hard, one baby with health problems is hard, but to have three of them - its no wonder it took a toll on your relationship. Braxton you are so right, you can only deal with a situation and be there for others, if you take care of yourself. In the moment its hard to do, but it shows you were meant to be together that you have worked on your own issues and needs, and then with each other - and your both so young. Wishing you a lifetime of happy times x

[@756Nichols]

I don't think we can fully understand all the horrific traumas you have both been through.

[@vicktoreakirkpatrick1390]

I see such a positive difference in both of you. I think as moms, people expect us to juggle it all and hold it all together. We even put those expectations on ourselves. All of which creates a huge ball of wax as my dad would say. What you do daily Aubrey is a true inspiration. The increased maturity and confidece in Braxton in his roles as a man, SO is very evident. Way to hang tough and keep meeting each other where you are at.

[@ahoward3819]

As always, how you have managed to handle all that has been thrown at you is beyond belief. These boys are incredibly lucky to have you as their parents. I hope things continue to get easier as the boys get older, and you guys can start to have a more normal family life. Wishing you all the best. Aubrey- you really need to write a book. Start writing down as much as you can so you have all the facts down and you don’t lose them over time. You may not have time to do it now, but in the future it might be a consideration.

[@sandiemom8888]

When my son was in the NICU, I would always say. A new fire to put out everyday. The fear of my baby getting NEC. Jumping as I walk in the NICU n see the team running to a bedside ressesitating a baby , hoping it's not mine and you guys had it times three. Hearing that you two gave each other a break just warms my heart. You were and are a team. I never had that. I agree about the No support either.. I had other kids at home . I was basically the only parent who went up to NICU mostly. I went from the moment my mom got out of work at 5pm and stayed until 5 am for over 2 months. So 12 hours and around the clock on the weekends. You two working on your relationship is the best thing u can do for ur babies. We made it thru the NICU experience only because he really didn't go up much. Our son has a boatload of health issues and keeps getting more. I was and still am the only caretaker to our son which is fine as I went to school for nursing but my husband was supportive and good to me. Our story ends sadly my husband just recently abandoned our disabled son and me. So hearing your story warms my heart. ❤❤
