Oh how I wished so many times that I would have twins. lol
My first baby was almost 7 weeks early and we were so concerned about her that we were just so glad she was ok at birth. Being my first one I didn't think to much about twins but it did cross my mind that 2 would be so fun.
My oldest son, my second baby, at the very end of my term the Dr told me he thought he heard an extra heartbeat and thought another baby was hiding behind the first one. Since I was having a very high risk pregnancy they were very concerned about this. At the end they didn't think my baby or I would live through birth and I was still holding out for twins! Well I didn't get twins but I did get a wonderful healthy baby boy and we both made it through.
I was older when I had my last two babies (against Dr's orders I should add!)...double high risk but I was hoping for twins the whole time. I made it through each of my last two babies (barely) and even though I did not have twins I did have something happen that was just as great...
My oldest daughter was grown by then and had my first grandson 6 months after my youngest son was born! So in a way it was like having twins just one baby was much larger than the other! lol And I mean larger since my grandson was also a premature baby and was quite small and my son was over 9 pounds at birth! lol So I couldn't really play it off that they were twins but we did dress them a like many times when they were much younger.
Now, maybe one of my younger kids will grow up and have twins...lol
