I'll Play - Ask Away

So I wasn't sure I was going to play but I love getting to read all the things and feel like I am getting to know you all better.

Ask away, I am pretty open!

How long had you and M been together? M and I have been together for almost 9 years!

Do you anticipate wanting more children?  I would love to try again for one more but M says it is out of the question.  While she says it is out of the question she signed the paper and paid the bill for the extra sperm to remain in storage so we shall see.  I would be totally ok if we stopped here.  It's been a long journey.

Do you have a feeling what the babies are? (boys, girls or one of each. I know one "might" be a boy) So my dad and myself have always said two boys and everyone else says we are having one of each.  I know they think B is a boy but some of the research and looking back at the u/s I am not so sure now.  We will find out in about 3 weeks so stay tuned.  I really hope for M that there is at least one girl in here but I know she will be happy as long as all three of us make it through this healthy.

Have you always wanted children? Was there ever any question about who would carry the baby (as it turned out babies)

Have you always wanted children? Yes!  Everyone that has known me since I was little is shocked my first child(ren) will not be due until after my 28th b'day.  I think as a child I was delusional about money (as most are) and wanted as many children as I could have.   I told everyone I was going to have 10 to 12 and live on a farm... that could not be further from the truth about my life today (although I would still love the farm!)

To take that question one step further, M never wanted kids growing up.  It wasn't until 2 years into our relationship she actually said she wouldn't mind raising a family with me.  That was all the encouragement I needed to know I would eventually be a mom!

Was there ever any question about who would carry the baby (as it turned out babies) Actually yes!  During our first year of ttc, I developed a nasty tremor in my right side.  We eventually found out it was adrenal failure after ruling out MS and Parkinsons.  During this time M told me if I really wanted kids, she would carry once we got my health under control as she couldn't risk loosing me.  Much to her relief we not only got my health under control, I was cleared to begin ttc again with me carrying!

What was your first thought when you found out you were having twins?

I laughed like not a crazy laugh but a little unsure chuckle. Then my mind started racing a million miles a minute.   I think the biggest thought was I knew this was a possibility but never thought it would become a reality.  Now I couldn't be happier!
