So we found out in february that we were pregnant, very pleased because one of Greg's cousins had also been trying and their announcement made us even more hopeful, we found out a few days later that we were expecting as well:)
Greg and I went in for our 12 week appointment to hear the heart beat (which was magical) and Greg teased the midwife asking her if she could hear two of them, she responded with a no and all of the hopeful thinking for twins was eliminated. It was'nt untill I woke up the saturday morning after my appointment to a gush of blood!:( My midwife sent me to the emergency room where the doctor gave me my first ultrasound to check on the "baby" or so we thought. As he put the cold goo on my stomach I quickly told him that I did not want to know the gender, just in case you could tell already (you can't). As he moved the wand around I watched the ultrasound excitedly to see the baby as he said "It looks like there's two in there." quite calmly I might add. I replied with a "NO!, You're lying!" scanning the monitor with hawk like eyes and there they were, two little babies plain as day! I then said "You're kidding me!" with the last part of the sentence about five octaves higher than the first and started to cry tears of joy and looked at Greg which had a smile from ear to ear as he said to me "You always get what you want!"
Telling people you're pregnant with twins is so much better than announcing the regular pregnancy! I am now 14 weeks, not very big yet but from what I've seen, late pregnancy with twins looks like your belly is blowing a bubble that is about to pop! I am scared for stretching out and scared for the twins health but other than that I am super excited and feel so so blessed.dd
So so happy for you both!!! How exciting!
ReplyDeleteI don;t know if you even remember who I am, but I am Chelsea Brock and we went to Jordan together. I saw your post on Tiffany and Joey;s blog and just had to congratulate you! My husbnad and I had twins in Decemeber 2007 and they have been the best thing to happen to us. It will be hard, but it will also be so fun you wont care when its a hard time. If you ever have any questions or need to talk about something twin related feel free to write me, it helps to be able to talk to someone who has been there. Congrats!
ReplyDeleteThanks Sarah! I do remember you Chelsea! That is so awesome you had twins!! I don't know if you remember Amie Lavoie but she is also pregnant with twins, must have been something in the milk cartons at school;) Thanks for your willingness to help! I'm sure I will be seeking it once I get further along. Thanks again!
