Hello everybody! So this is my first pregnancy and it was very unexpected. I was diagnosed with PCOS in May of last year when I was 32 years old.

My boyfriend and I found out three weeks ago that I am pregnant after being told by my doctors that I would have a very difficult time getting pregnant.

Since finding out the news I have been in complete shock and denial. My boyfriend has been extremely supportive and does everything that I need him to do to help me feel better and more comfortable.

We went in for my second prenatal appointment on Thursday and after seeing the twin’s heartbeats in the ultrasound I completely broke down and started crying in the office with my OB/GYN.

I’ve always wanted to be a mom and believe that that’s what I was put on this earth for. I just didn’t expect that it would happen so soon. Or that my first pregnancy would be with twins.

None of my friends have had twins and I don’t have a support system of women who have been pregnant with twins before.

I am so exhausted, nauseous, dehydrated, and have a hard time forcing myself to eat. I do eat small meals throughout the day and drink coconut water a lot as well. I take folic acid supplement and prenatal vitamins daily.

I feel like I’m rambling but I really don’t know who else to talk to you about all of this. My parents know and are very supportive.

I just feel like I’m lost and don’t know what to do. I have no energy and can barely get out of bed or leave the house.

I’m terrified. I’ve always been worried about being pregnant because I have always been a sick person with a weaker immune system.

I asked my doctor if it’s normal to be in denial and in shock still at six weeks and three days and he said yes. But I feel so guilty for it. I want to be over the moon excited. But it’s so hard when I feel so bad all day long, every day.

I also have been reading Reading a lot of scary things about hearing twins and that I could potential he lose one or both because I am a high-risk pregnancy.

I just feel so alone and isolated.

I don’t even want to think about pregnancy announcements or photo shoots or gender reveal parties…

Please. someone give me some advice or share with me your story of finding out that you were pregnant with twins and what your pregnancy was like.

Sincerely,

Scared & pregnant with twins
