Being a mother of twins is the dream of several women looking for babies.
Your first thoughts may be: “I can't believe it's going to be two” if you didn't expect it, “I hope it's the couple” if you are a first-time parent, and if you already have children “How are we going to do with two babies? ”, there are also those who ask say "Do you know what they are going to be?" and the one that can never be missing "Are they twins or twins?"
My story took a sudden turn when we found out in March 2016 that we were going to be parents (the third pregnancy, after two losses)... what we did not expect is that we were going to increase the family to more than three members in a single pregnancy.
Getting pregnant with more than one baby was not in my plans, we thought for sure it will be a baby like previous pregnancies and that's it. In my family on the mother's and father's side there are twins, so let's say it wasn't impossible, what I didn't think was that it was going to touch me, although due to the symptoms I suspected something.
A few weeks after getting pregnant we went on a trip (the trip is already planned and we decided to live the experience), I felt much worse than I thought and it was getting worse as the days went by, I didn't think I would get pregnant at that time. moment (it was hard for us to stay and how lucky we were just before the trip, I had a few weeks), but the trip was already planned so we decided to go anyway and enjoy as much as possible.
As you can imagine, my pregnancies are not very easy, so we had to return earlier because I felt bad and where we were we couldn't ensure that they understood what I was feeling and with my history we decided to return, but that's another story since we were in Asia, at that time I was barely 1 month and a half pregnant.
My first reaction upon confirming that it was indeed more than one baby and that the intense discomfort I was having finally had an explanation was to tell my husband and my mother who were there "I told you, it's not normal for me to feel so bad" and well from there came the laughter and the serious part of the doctor where he told me that I was going to need a cerclage, rest and pray a lot, because if we reached 34 weeks "we had to shoot fireworks".
My doctor was not negative, like me, we are realistic and the best thing for me is to know what can happen and how I can take these children as far as possible.
To our surprise they weren't twins, we were having triplets!
