Twins...what?!
(9 weeks 1 day)What I thought was the scariest thing in the world did not even compare to what was going to happen three weeks from now. While at my parents house, I went to the bathroom at was spotting a little bit. As soon as Adam came home, I told him he have to go the ER, told him what was going on, and off we went. At the ER they drew my blood and checked out some other things, and told me I was fine. The doctor told me that he could tell I was scared so he would schedule an ultrasound the next day. Good ol' Hazen no ultrasound tech was there after hours so he could not do it immediately. Since everything was fine the day before Adam went to class as scheduled, and my mom came with me to the ultrasound. The bleeding was long gone by then and I started to breathe easy. I knew once I saw the baby I would instantly be in love, and I was excited that my mom was with because she had never seen an ultrasound. When the ultrasound tech put the thing on my stomach I saw a very confused look on my mom's face, but didnt think much of it because she had never seen one before. About 30 seconds later the same but more extreme look came across my face. I will never forget that moment, I looked at the ultrasound tech and she looked at me, and I said "was that just two babies." In a panic she walked out of the room and said she had to get the doctor immediately. The next thing that came out of my mouth in front of my mom, that I apologized for later, is not appropriate to put on this blog :) I will just described it as great shock!!! Needless to say, the tech came back in and said, "yes you are having twins." There heartbeats were 171 and 174. She could not tell if they were identical or faternal, but there were two. I was so in shock when I left that I never asked for any pictures (something I will regret forever). I immediately called Adam and continued to call him until he thought that someone was really in trouble, stepped out of class and called me back. He was in complete shock when I told him. Once, I hit 10 weeks (the safe mark...NOT) we told a ton of people that we were having twins. We were not quite sure how we were going to do it, but we were. The idea of twins was scary at first (and still kind of is) but it was SO EXCITING!!! We celebrated Christmas with both families and our conversations already revolved around them and how we were going to make it work. I told everyone I would call them after my 12 week ultrasound and give lots of updates!!
