Greenbean Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Oh wow, that's huge news.Obviously the most pending logistical issue will be your username will shortly be outdated (hopefully that gave you a giggle).A friend at work got a surprise 3rd which was twins. She took a long time to get over the initial shock (about 5months to be honest) but almost 2 years later has settled and can't believe her luck. I hope the shock is fleeting for you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blueskies12 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 That is incredible! How amazing! What a crazy time. We are here for you XX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mummyof3 Posted March 2, 2021 Author Share Posted March 2, 2021 Green bean, that did make me smile xThank you all so so much for your words and support.I'm around 6 weeks.. things went a bit off that path when the 3 Dr's noticed twins.We have a 16, 11 and 10 yr old.Dp is in shock as well.Dr appt tomorrow morning for full blood results, and assess the pregnancy as a whole so we know what we're dealing with.Never ever did I expect this, neither my partner or myself have any knowledge of multiples in our families - we prob seem naive, just never thought that would happen with us!Sorry for rambling on xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gracie1978 Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Oh wow, what an update!Twin mum here, unplanned pregnancy, that ended up being twins.All the best with your next appointment xx Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sancti-claws Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 Oh wow!!! And to detect twins so early - they were flat out showing us a heartbeat at 7 weeks back in the day.Good luck (lol I typed "good cluck" but a bit harsh!!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bob Posted March 2, 2021 Share Posted March 2, 2021 I had twins and I also had a baby when my youngest (twins) were 9. This will be a much different experience for you. The older 3 don’t need your direct help with much, so your hands will be free for the babies. And the older ones can help you with things, depending on their personality/ desire. So you might enjoy this experience with a different outlook. My friend just had twins after 3, and her other ages are 16, 14 and 12. She’s loving it this time around.

Karma Sutra Posted March 3, 2021 Share Posted March 3, 2021 Oh wow!!! And to detect twins so early - they were flat out showing us a heartbeat at 7 weeks back in the day.Good luck (lol I typed "good cluck" but a bit harsh!!) Well. I don’t think you were too far from the truth. Freudian slip perhaps? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phillipa Crawford Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Given that age gap twins is a fantastic result. You will have three 'step' parents when they are young, it will be the easiest parenting gig ever.Then they will have each other when the older three start doing there own thing.My surprise was 61/2 and and 10 1/2 years younger than her siblings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lallalla Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 Oh wow what a big shock! Double shock I guess. As a twin mum and mum of 3, this would be a hard decision if it were me.If you go ahead with it there is a lot of support out there in multi-land. Lots of big families that were also a surprise.
