A month ago, to my complete surprise, I discovered that I was pregnant. I had my first doctor appointment on Monday and discovered that I was pregnant with twins approximately 9 weeks along. Twins don't run in my family and I was both shocked and excited. The ultra sound also revealed that I would more than likely miscarry. I was scheduled to come back for another ultra sound in 9 days hoping to see growth. Today I miscarried, even though my doctor prepared me to expect real labor pains, I was rather surprised by them. I've been contracting since 7am and still going. However I think it's beginning to finish up which is a good thing. Today has been full of a lot of emotion. Knowing that they were twins really makes the loss feel greater. The good thing, hard as it may be, I know that's it's all a part of God's plan and I take comfort in knowing that. I"m also grateful beyond words for the three beautiful sweet boys that I have.
