someone else's life?

lajolla09.30.06

Do you ever stop and get the feeling that you're living someone else's life?  Like that twins (or trips or quads) are something that happens to OTHER people and not you... but somehow you have them?

I never in a million years would have ever imagined I would have twins.  Every time I see posts on here from non MoMs I feel like yeah... that would have been me.  Fascinated by twins but not even imagining what it's like to have them.

Just my random thought of the day... how on earth did I get to be a twin mom... weird weird day I'm having

yup. most of the time I don't even recognize the woman in the picture...ME!

but how blessed are we wait till they are playing together and calling you mama and those first six months will seem like they never happened!!!

oh god, yes. i used to lurk on here, just because i thought it was fascinating. there was a mom who had BBB triplets (PinkFlower) and i followed her through her pregnancy and i remember when the boys were born and i just thought it was SO neat. they were so cute, and i just was in awe...triplets.

and then it happened to me. i just can't believe that. it's impossible to fathom sometimes. why was i so lucky for my egg to split twice?

I one hundred percent agree with you! Everyone tells me that it still just hasn't hit me yet. Alot of women that I talk to say it is there dream to have twins and I never really thought about it until that surprise ultra sound.  I have never been so happy about anything though.  We are truely blessed women!

I feel like that most days.  I wonder how I got 2 all the time.

Somtimes they will playing and I'll just look at them and think...holy crap, I have TWO babies!  I was always the one in my group of friends who thought twins would be awful.  But now that I have them it is so fun.  They are at the stage now where they make each other giggle all the time.  Sometime I think of life with one baby and think it might be boring!!

Oh my gosh, almost every day I squeeze my boys and say out loud "how did I get to be so lucky?".  I feel so blessed to be a twin mom!

My girls are 3 and I still find myself in awe of the fact that there are 2 of them.
