My immediate thought: split screen! Must be a front and side version of the little babe. Alex knew right away and the smile on his face went from ear to ear. The technician then said, "Well, there's 2 babies in there!" My world went dark. I'll be incredibly honest about this part. I was in shock. I don't know why it hadn't crossed my mind. My cousins are twins and so it is in my family, but I honestly didn't even have it on my radar. Alex listened to the rest of the appointment and I was just going through the motions, tears and all. I was terrified! I selfishly started thinking of the toll it would take on my body, the hardships of being a first time parent not only to one but TWO newborns, the finances, etc... All the while, Alex kept smiling and holding me close and talking about all the fun and excitement we had ahead of us. It was what I needed, even though I didn't know it at the time. It took me a few days to let this settle in, but once I did, I was overjoyed. Alex and I have always wanted a big family and this was a sure fire way to start. We found out the genders at our 16 week appointment! A boy and a girl! We were thrilled. They are fraternal twins, meaning they have their own amniotic sacs and placentas. My doctor told me it was the safest twin pregnancy. We had names picked out already and can't wait to see their faces matched to their names:
Emily (Emmy) Lou Keith
Bennett Matthew Keith
Emily was my grandmother's name and Lou was my great grandmother's name. Matthew is a family name on Alex's side- his middle name, his father's middle name and grandfather's middle name. We have loved calling them by name and getting to know them by their movements in my belly.
