I had my first ultrasound today and we found out that it's twins! I'm 8 weeks and both babies looked great. They're the right size and both heartbeats looked strong! We are totally shocked. They don't run in my family and we didn't do fertility treatments. It's amazing and we are just in shock. We are going from 2 kids to 4....eeeeeeek!!! Lol My husband was like "We need a bigger vehicle!". lol Priorities of a man! We think they're fraternal, because they have separate sacs but admittedly we know ZERO about twins so we have a lot to learn quickly!
Congrats! I am pregnant with twins too (9 weeks tomorrow) and also going from 2 to 4 kids! We currently have an almost 3yo, and 1.5ish yo (will be 2 in August). Fraternal twins run in my family but our twins appear to be identical. So crazy!
I started an expecting multiples check-in that I'll find and bump for you so you can stay in touch with the rest of our mamas here who are expecting multiples!
Congrats. Two babies is a surprise! I know from a friend with twins that there are groups you can joins and sales where there is stuff for multiples so you'll want to look into that!

I thought you were quiet overwhelmed with getting pregnant again with your 4th? I think. Surprised you say you wanted twins.
