Nady's
having twins! Story
The Day We Found Out
We Were Having Multiples!
I had no inkling that I was carrying twins. It was 13 weeks into the pregnancy
and I really didn't have morning sickness too badly or anything out of the
ordinary.
We were going to get the u/s done to confirm the due date. The weekend before I
was shopping with my Mom and we had selected a whole bunch of baby items ~
stroller, bassinet, crib...etc... On the way to the u/s Jay says to me, "You
know what? There are so many twins in our office, Judy (a woman who is a twin
and has twins) told Pricilla before her u/s "what if you have twins" and she
DID!!! Then, she said the same thing me. Can you imagine if we had twins?" We
both laughed so hard and I was saying...OMG, you would have to get two of
everything my Mom and I picked out last weekend. That would be so funny.
I went in for the u/s while Jay waited in the "fathers waiting room" to be
called. The technician was taking a really long, long time and I was getting a
bit nervous. I didn't think too, too much of it because I'd never had one before
and didn't know it was out of the ordinary. She then said to me "were you taking
any fertility drugs?", I said "no". She then said "You are expecting twins". I
was so shocked. I started to "laugh/cry". My mind was reeling...it was almost
like a surreal moment. I am telling you, I am so glad I was lying down. She then
said "lets play a trick on your husband, don't tell him right when he gets
in...I'll tell him by showing him the two babies". I was in such a stupor, I
agreed.
Jay came in and he was smiling. He stood at my feet while the tech showed him
one baby...then she said "hang on to your hat dad, here's baby #2". I'll never
forget Jay's face as long as I live. He said "are you serious?" and looked like
he was going to faint. He had to grab onto the bed so he wouldn't fall down.
We called everyone we knew that afternoon and we felt like we won the lottery.
I'll never forget that day...it feels like yesterday.
