Our angel watching over us!

Just last May we lost our lil girl, Nya. I carried her until I was 23 weeks...I knew something wasnt right because I hadn't feel her move in a couple of days. So, we had an emergency ultrasound to find out that our baby no longer had a heart beat. It turns out she had stopped growing at 20 weeks and they weren't able to find the reason why..even through an autopsy. It was the most heartbreaking time of our lives. I never thought I would smile again.

I believe my baby is watching over us and has sent a lil brother and sister to her mommy and daddy:) We are now 30.1 weeks pregnant with out twins! I've only recently began to feel excited about this pregnancy because I was afraid that I would not carry my babies as far I have. All I can do is hope and pray that my babies will continue to grow and be safe! I believe our angel is watching over her brother and sister:)♥

Mommy's Little Angels

My name is Toshia and I am 19 years old... a little over a week ago I experienced the scariest thing that has ever happened to me. I'll start from the beginning I guess. In December 2008, I found out I was pregnant. Kinda excited, but definitely scared. All I could think is what is gonna happen? My first thoughts were abortion, but that is something I could never do... especially after what happened a little over a week ago. My boyfriend and I had been having some problems so we definitely weren't trying to concieve, this was definitely something that would change us forever, little did we know at that time. So I told him I was pregnant and I was going to go through with the pregnancy, then on the day of my first sonogram I found out I was pregnant with twins =) Even more exciting, yet even scarier than before as well. Now here it is February 27, 2009... I had another sonogram scheduled for this date and coincidentally this was our 2 year anniversary... so I asked him if he'd like to come to the sonogram. He did and he was excited about it. He got to find out what they were, but I didn't want to know and he wasn't telling anyone, not even me =) Well, on the way home it seemed like something was wrong so I asked if he was okay. I said they're girls aren't they? Joking around because he wanted boys... he said that wasn't it and was silent for a few minutes. Then out of nowhere he says I don't want to be a dad, I don't want kids now and I don't want kids with you.................... What a shock!!! I didn't know what to say, so i said nothing. We talked after we got back to my house and I assured him it wasn't going to be as bad as he thinks.... We were starting to get along better, everything was going okay with the pregnancy, this leads up to my next appointment, March 17, 2009. I had been leaking fluid for a couple of days and I wasn't sure if it was my bladder was leaking or if something was wrong so I asked the doctor, she said it was normal... this wasn't my normal doctor so I was kind of weary, but hey she's the doctor, not me. This was my first pregnancy so I wouldn't know anyways if it wasn't normal. So the next day, I'm having cramps really really bad. I didn't think anything of it, I jumped in a cool shower thinking it would help, apparently not. The cramps got worse and it made me feel like... honestly like I had to take a shit. So I got on the toilet, pushed like I was having a bowel movement, and my water broke..... one of the babies had come out. All that was going through my head was how do I stop this, why is this happening?? I have never felt so helpless IN MY LIFE!!! I was home alone at the time so I had to go downstairs to grab the phone and call 911. I called 911 and they went through the routine and said they were on their way. I had a mean dog, so in order for all these ppl to come into my house I had to seclude him in a room by hismelf. He was upstairs, so I had to go back up the stairs to shut the bedroom door.... then back down the stairs to wait for the ambulance. Meanwhile I have this baby hanging out of me by the umbilical cord, I didn't cry, I couldn't. I was just so shocked all I could say is oh my god.... The ambulance finally got here after what seemed like hours, they did what they had to do and took me to the hospital. The other baby was removed then and I was put up in the maternity ward... I got to see my babies.... got pictures...... all the usual fun stuff u do after having a baby right? Not so much. I wasn't going to get to bring my babies home with me =( This was the worst day of my life. March 18, 2009. I will never forget my two little angels.... Breanna Mae Stone and Savannah Olivia Stone.... mommy loves you <3

5 in 6 years

I always knew that having twins was a possibility because my dad is a twin and twins and triplets are all throughout my family but I figured it would be one of my other sisters.. My first 3 pregnancies were all single births and all boys now 6,5,and 16 months... so in Oct I found out we are having another baby and my pregnancy was very different from my other pregnancies so I thought this is the little girl I have always wanted...Everyone at work had been teasing me that I was having triplets because I could not stop eating so my 16 week ultrasound arrives and I leave work stating that Ill be back with a picture of only one baby...WRONG I almost fell off the table when the tech asked me if twins ran in my family..... so that day I not only found out I am having twins but both are boys! I am 26 yrs old and will have 5 boys... I never thought I would be excited to have all boys but I am... This is going to be a very exciting adventure for my family...

Twins and More Twins

Well I am 26 years old and married. My husband and I have beautiful twin girls named Jaelynn and Jazlynnn that are 15months old and we also have another set of twins on the way, a boy and a girl due in june. Now with our first set I kept telling my husband at that time my boyfriend that if i got pregnant it would be twins, well when I told him it was twins he called me a liar, which wasn't so bad but then he called the dr. a liar. They were born 6 weeks early weighing in at 4'11 and 4'9. both very healthy. They are faternal twins, but look very simialar and do everything together. Now these second time I was more in shock, I was definately not expecting twins again. I'm 26 weeks and praying everyday for patient's as I will need it, since my husband's job will require leaving weeks at a time. The Dr. has told us that it all has to do with me, see when i ovulate I do it twice. Yes we are wanting more kids, but not for 4 years, hopefully just 1, but then again it would feel wierd only having 1. Both of these preganancy were not caused by any kind of drugs/

My Twin Pregnancy

I was on the pill when i found out i was pregnant had a ultrasound at 6 weeks and it picked up i was having twins. I could not belive it two heart bets. I cryed. This was going to be my first baby (babies). It was a shock for me and my otherhalf. They were in seprate sacs so they where not going to be identical. My otherhalfs sister has identical girls that are 2. All through my pregnancy i had morning sickness that went all day every day. I had no enegy. All i wanted to do was sleep. At 18 weeks ultrasound I found out what sex they were going to be a girl and a boy. I could not belive it. At 32 weeks i started bleeding so i went to hospital where we just got out of the car when my water brock. I was so scared i started to cry it was to early for my twins to be born. My otherhalf was so carm. I was in labour for 28 hours. It was the most painfull thing i have ever been through. I dont remember much about the labour as i was very tyed. Had a natural delivery with forceps. My little boy was born first he was 1830 grams and 42cm long. Then they brock my little girls water then she came out 3 minutes after. She was 1800 grams and 42cm long. they where very small babies. My otherhalf was great through the labour and birth he did not leave my side. My little boy had a breathing problem where he had to spend the first 14 days in New Born Intensive Care Unit. I nearly lost him but thank god he pulled through. He was on oxygen. My little girl was fine. They stayed in hospital for 2 months. It was the hardest thing for a mother to go home and not bring her babies home with her. I could not bear to be a part from them. Twins are very hard work but it is all worth it in the end. You need a lot of help and support from your family and friends. Now my twins are 2 and half years old and we are thinking of having another baby. I did not prepair myself for having twins. Anyone who is having twins or more even one baby please read up about it. I new nothing when i had them it was such a shock to me. For my next pregnancy i am going to read every thing i can about pregnancy, giving birth and labour. I am going to prepair myself for my next pregnancy.
