So…..its been a minute….or maybe a month or two or three or six…lol
Let’s see how far do I go back? Hmmm…do I go back to when I was taken by ambulance to the hospital (no worries, I am fine, thank the Lord!) or do is start from when I found out I was unexpectedly pregnant?!?! Usually, I am one for details and explaining, but I’m too tired…so here’s the long and short of it. Buckle up, its a wild ride.
I spent 18 hours in the hospital and racked up an $18k medical bill, and yes, that was after insurance. yikes! I know. I was sent home with some meds and told that with some rest and relaxation, all would be well. So, I came home, took my meds like a good little girl, and tried my best to de-stress. I rested, read, and napped, yet I was still so tired. Well, one thing led to another, and I started to suspect that I may have a bun in the oven. Double yikes! I know…I didn’t think it could be possible, but I had to know for sure. I took a test and two little pink lines immediately appeared…there was no waiting period. I was in utter shock. I could not believe it. I showed the husband, and he was in shock too, but with my history of miscarriage, we didn’t want to talk about it or get too excited. We did not speak of it again until a month later, when I we headed to my first doctor’s appointment. I was just hoping for a heartbeat. Lo and behold, there were two! Yes, two heartbeats! I was aghast, I could not believe it.
And so here we are six months later…navigating the ups and downs of twin pregnancy. It’s been a wild ride to say the least…I am officially in countdown mode. Nine weeks and counting…Eek!
