"Congratulations...you're having..." The doctor said. "What?" Kara yelled out. "Triplets! Congratulations!" The doctor said with a smile. "Triplets? As in three? Three babies?" Lena gasped. "Yes, that's what triplets mean." The doctor replied looking at them both. Kara lay there with a shocked look on her face. "I'll go now so you can get dressed." The doctor added. Lena nodded and looked at her wife. Once the doctor was gone Lena stood up and helped Kara sit up. "Triplets....Lena...you got me pregnant with triplets!" Kara whispered as her head turned to look at her wife. "Uh...yea I did...oh Rao...three babies...." Lena grumbled. "Five kids!" Kara exclaimed as got dressed. "We'll handle it Kara, we're multi millionaires. We will handle this...the diapers, the toys, the extra cribs, everything." Lena whispered as she pulled Kara into a hug. "I know we will, but...damn! This is it! After these three come out we both are wearing those birth control tabs." Kara said. "I agree wholeheartedly. Now..let's go home shall we? I'll order us some pizza and potstickers and some ice cream...we'll pick up our girls and tell Eliza the good news." Lena suggested. "Yea...let's go." Kara replied with a small smile.

A few minutes later they pulled up to Eliza's house and went to get Alura and Lori. "How was it?" Eliza asked as she opened the door. "Where are the girls?" Kara asked. "Up in your old room watching a movie on Alura's tablet, want met to call them?" Eliza asked. "No. We need to talk to you first." Kara said. Eliza's face fell. "It's nothing bad." Lena quickly added as they walked into the kitchen and sat at the table. "Well?" Eliza asked. "Triplets." Kara said. "Triplets! You're having three babies?" Eliza exclaimed. "Yes. Three babies!" Lena said. "Oh! How lovely! Three new grand babies to spoil!" Eliza exclaimed.
