Panic and sadness

Hi ladies
So I have just found out that I am pregnant with twins.
I am scared and disappointed as I already have another child who will only be 3 when they come along. I know I should be feeling excited and blessed, but I'm just not.
Did anyone else feel this ? Will this feeling change?

Hiiii! I have twin boys who are now 2.5, I feel like this is a normal response to life changing news. When I first found out I was in shock for quite some time. It was my first pregnancy, and it was not easy. With that being said, I couldn’t imagine not having two. It’s hard, but it is so worth it. The bond they share, the double giggles. They keep each other entertained and the bond they have is something I’m blessed to witness everyday. Give yourself grace and time to accept it, I pray you have a healthy pregnancy with healthy babies. ❤️

Hey, congratulations xx it took me a while to come round to the idea and I genuinely don’t think I felt excited the entire pregnancy because I was high risk and just thought that something was going to go wrong, plus scared of the unknown. The care that the hospital gave me was absolutely amazing and my whole pregnancy luckily went well, they did scan me bi-weekly and towards the end it was A LOT of appointments (mine shared a placenta, not sure if this will be the same for you) but this helped ease my mind. Mine are now 16 months and as Hannah said I could never imagine having just one. The bond they have is so so special, it was hard especially at first but you will learn little tricks that make it easier and it will be so worth it. Twins are such a blessing and I feel lucky to have them. Always happy to talk if you need me xx

NIPT Testing For Gender

So I hear stories of women getting the NIPT blood test and getting told it’s one gender but then turns out at there 20 week ultrasound it’s the other. If you’d got the NIPT test how’d it go?

Anxiety

First trimester anxiety is a joke🥲 I had slight light bleeding earlier (brown) and I pure cried my eyes out but after lots of convos with my fellow friend CHAT GPT I think it’s all okay as it’s stopped now and I didn’t really have bad cramps just slight ones but I’ve had that for the past week since I found out (I’m 6 weeks 1 day). Has anyone else had this happen to them and it all be okay? I’m gonna go for a early scan at 8 weeks just for reassurance anyway

Help

I just did my 3 hour glucose test and I’m wondering if the results that I just got are from the first blood draw or the last one, has anyone else done it and gotten the results for all the blood draws, idk if there gonna send all of them or just the one I have. Edit: I figured it out but does this mean I have gestational diabetes
