Twins and maybe more


I am 28 years old and our ID twins are 4.5 years old. I found i was PG with them at 12dpo, i was extremely tired and starting at 6 wks i had m/s so bad that i was in the E.R twice before 9 wks. At 10 wks the doctor told me it was twins and i told him he was lying lol. They do run in my family though, and all that stuff about ID twins being a freak of nature and can't be genetic is not true. In our family every other generation as far back as we have recorded has had ID twins. After 6 weeks on bed rest the girls were born by emergency c-section at 34 weeks. Baby A was very tiny at 3lbs and baby B was 4lbs. B had to be rushed to the childrens hospital because her lungs collapsed. After 8 days they released baby B and we took her to the hospital where her sister was they let them co sleep for about and hour and the next day baby A was stable enough to come home. Yay for co-sleeping.
We are expecting again, it is very early but I got a BFP at 9dpo, hubby is overseas for a year but we are very excited. Now we are only 3.5 weeks PG and so hoping for twins again. They are such a joy, even if i do have to hide in the closet sometimes to talk on the phone because they are so loud =)

My Two Precious Angels

I am 20 years old and Have had two pregnancies, Both of which I miscarried. I started to take birth control after I had a pregnancy scare. After a year of being on the pill I went off them, I felt like they were not the right kind of pill for me. I planned on making a Doctor appointment to get new ones, but before I could do that, I started to feel very ill. I couldn't remember my last period, so being the paranoid person I am, I bought a pregnancy test. When I took it the test, it was a VERY clear positive. I made a Doctor appointment we did the normal pregnancy tests, and everything came out positive. He was worried when I had a large amount of hormones. He decided just to keep a close eye on me.
I started to have pains so I went to the doctor office and they did an emergency ultrasound, and found out there were two babies. The pains were from my uterus growing at a repaid rate. I am now 14 weeks pregnant and both babies are perfectly healthy.

twins and death

i was seeing this boy. He was 23 and i was 16. We where in a seriouse relationship about to buy a puppy. On his way home from work he died in a car crash. 2 months later i was throwing up every day 24-7. I didnt no what was wrong so i went to the doctor. I was 2 months pregnant with twins. I remembered braking down. How can i cope with a pregnacy and my better halfs death. I ran home and broke down in my moms arms. She promised she would support me no matter what the dicsion would be. I decided to keep them. There Nicks babies and he would of wanted it.

7 months later the babies arravied. A month ealier then planned though, ! bundle of joy was a boy, his name was Nick Jr. And the other Bluebelle. There where beautiful. Looked exactly like him.

Im now 18 and Nick and Bluebelle are nearly 2. They where the best thing that ever happened to me. They look and remind me of nick and i remind myself how lucky i am to have them.
