Mum Of Triplets Shows Off Incredible Body Transformation Just Five Months After Giving Birth And She Revealed Her SecretsRamie Snodgrass, 35, from Tacoma, Washington, went from having a huge swollen stomach to a stunning bikini bod without dieting or working out.She attributes taking care of babies Anna, Connor and Justin, along with the incredible “strength of the body,” as the reason behind her phenomenal physique.
During the pregnancy she feared she would ʟᴏsᴇ her babies, as twins Connor and Justin shared the same amniotic sac, putting them at ʀɪsᴋ. Medically called monoamniotic twins, doctors even suggested reducing the pregnancy to one to ensure sᴜʀᴠɪᴠᴀʟ. But the parents, who believed they were given twins for a reason, decided against termination and went on to have three healthy babies.
Parents Ramie and Brad admit they were surprised to be told they were having triplets. “Our plan was to have one baby, we didn’t use fertility assistance, but in our ultrasound initially they were like, ‘There’s one, no wait there’s three,’” Ramie recalled. The parents were offered the ʜᴇᴀʀᴛ-ᴡʀᴇɴᴄʜɪɴɢ decision of whether to keep all three of their babies or ᴀʙᴏʀᴛ the twins to ensure the safety of their daughter. Ramie said: “We knew they would be ᴘʀᴇᴍᴀᴛᴜʀᴇ and that was scary enough, but doctors also spoke to us about reducing to a single pregnancy. But we believed we were given triplets for a reason and whatever the future held for us, that was the life we would have.
”Thankfully the triplets survived, with 3lb 3oz Anna arriving first, followed by Justin at 3lb 8oz and Connor at 3lb 7oz. After coming home and adapting to life with their three new arrivals, Ramie shared two images of herself – one of her bulging baby ʙᴜᴍᴘ and another five-months post-partum.“I’m thankful to have my body back, I was uncomfortable being pregnant, especially as I have always kept very fit.” she said . For Ramie, the most important difference between the two images was her mental and emotional transformation. “During the pregnancy I was so scared of ʟᴏsɪɴɢ my babies. I am just thankful to feel like myself again and get to enjoy my time with my children. I have a lot of fun dressing them up; while I’m taking time out to be a mum it’s great to have a creative outlet and enjoy my kids.” she said“
I want to inspire other people and other mums not to give up on the things that are important to you as a person. I tried running six weeks after my C-sᴇᴄᴛɪᴏɴ but found it was too ᴘᴀɪɴFᴜʟ, so I don’t work out as regularly as I used to. But I think having triplets has kept me slim; lifting them out of their cribs, toting big boxes of diapers, pushing their hug strollers and more is physically strenuous. I have a fit body type, I eat very healthily, I don’t exercise regularly but I am taking care of the babies and any chance I get I like to go for walks. The amount of times I’m running up and down the stairs, picking up one baby then another when they begin to cry, is pretty physically demanding.” she added
