What an amazing and terrifying moment all at once. Surprisingly enough, it was everything we had hoped for. Our plan was to get preggo in August (for a spring baby) but because we have the worst luck, we figured it would take some time for things to finally click. Well apparently the gods were on our side because in only 2 months, I was feeling queasy and thinking it was time for a test. Now the cooky thing was that I was feeling rather sick at only 3 - 4 weeks. In reading websites, magazines, books, and even talking to my office's nurse, that was highly unusual...but I must be ultra sensitive or have super powers. Regardless, I was car sick 24/7. I thought people said pregnancy was supposed to be the most wonderful time of your life? No one ever tells you about all the not so wonderful things about it. But regardless, we were thrilled to know we're pregnant! HOORAY!
So, our 8 week appointment was in September. My first question...why on earth do they make you wait that long?!?!? Its excruciating! Either way, I was super excited and very nervous. Would I hear the heart beat? Could we see it? Well after a lengthy informational download with the nurse, it was time for the ultrasound...YIPPEE! Now, I've seen plenty of ultrasound pictures in my time, but on the screen and in the moment of all the emotions, my vision must have been blurred because I was seeing 2 little objects instead of one. I rubbed my eyes and looked again...still there. So I asked the ultrasound tech what the scoop was. Was I seeing things clearly???
Well as it turns out, it was indeed two little ones. We're having TWINS!!!
