They Think It’s Twins 😱

Evening all....

Having a bit of a melt down this evening. We found out I was pregnant yesterday (got the bfp 😆) I had to go for an ultrasound today as I have had a previous ectopic pregnancy which ruptured (have since had one successful pregnancy) this is my third baby and my husbands second.... so we already have a pretty full house but we wanted to add one of our own to the brood.

Anyway, went for the ultrasound today and they have told me they can see two sacks 😳! I am only around 5 weeks along according to the scan so it was to early to detect heart beats. I have an appointment in 2 weeks time to have another scan to confirm if two little heart beats have started beating.

I’m sure there are countless want to be mummies out there who would be desperate to be in mine and my husbands position but I just feel absolutely panicked and overwhelmed at the prospect of having twins. Im now feeling awful about the fact that I’m not dancing around the house with excitement when I feel like I should be.

We’ve wanted a baby for quite some time but have only been trying for 2 months as we wanted to be married before we began trying but the news today that there is now a very high chance we will be having two babies has absolutely sent me into shock. Has anyone else felt like this? A million thoughts are going through my mind, how will we afford child care for two babies, twin pregnancies carry higher risks, how can we afford two babies, I don’t want a c section 😭😭😭😭😭😭 Is it normal to feel this panicked when they tell you there’s two ?
