It was October and I had known for two months that I was pregnant. I didn’t want to tell anyone until I was further along, as I had experienced some previous disappointments. That day started out like any other day, morning sickness at work!!! Then I started to feel like something was not right. Call it a mother’s intuition. I called the doctor and because of my previous history he scheduled an ultra-sound immediately. My husband and I nervously drove to the hospital and waited our turn. The technician was kind during my examination, I am sure he knew how scared we were. The next thing I remember him saying was, “Well, everything appears to be fine and as a matter of fact it looks like you are having twins.” I thought he was joking! Twins, as far as I knew did not run in either of our families and I was not currently taking any fertility drugs. Once we got over our initial shock, we were thrilled. I had wanted to have two children and this was a dream come true! My pregnancy was determined to be high risk and I was ordered to take a leave from my job and was put on bed rest. What a life changing day…
