How???!

I posted previously about being pregnant unexpectedly. My daughter is 17 months old, and we struggled so much to have her. We tried for SO LONG and lost 3 babies. We were done as far as we were concerned, and I got a positive pregnancy test a few weeks ago when my milk supply started dropping. Fast forward to today, and I had my first scan. It's TWINS! I feel blessed, but so stressed and so lost right now. I don't know how I'll handle twins. I'll probably have to quit my job and lose one six-figure income. Then comes the question of affording twins. I need some words of encouragement. This was SO UNEXPECTED!

Oh my GOD! WOW, what a surprise! I have a 17 month old and can’t imagine twins, I know the financial responsibilities are daunting but you CAN find community even online. People do figure it out and get through. And also, what a HUGE BLESSING?! You know how many want twins, how many IVF celebrities go for twins? I know celebs are different but I just want to encourage you. Keep your faith. Believe you can do it! Because you can.

@Natali Thank you so much! I said to my husband earlier, "I was always taught never to question God, but boy, is it hard sometimes." Our son is 11, and we tried so hard to give him a sibling close to his age. I never envisioned having 4 kids, but it's in his plan and not ours. It's so cool that you also have a 17 month old. I was in the Oct 2023 group. I'm excited to follow everyone here and hopefully encourage each other along the way. I'll take my incognito option off soon, haha. Thanks again.

I am personally struggling with believing God for finances because with baby number two coming we will need to afford daycare for two and can’t live off one income with our mortgage. I’m Christian and this has been my struggle so far with this pregnancy, I’m also a planner/project manager so I joke that “worry” is a part of me. But the Lord listens and answers prayer and provides. So I say this to say I’m not having twins but I can understand worry about finances. 💗

You deserve it! So happy for you. God has the last say
