DEALING WITH TWIN PREGNANCY



When people get to know that i had a set of twins, the first question they ask is "how are you coping and how challenging was your pregnancy?"
This post will be treating how i coped while pregnant, i am going to share my personal experience to encourage all expectant mothers.

I have always desired twins even before marriage specifically two boys. So when i confirmed that i was pregnant in the third month  of my marriage, i was excited- then the nausea hit me, really bad.
VOMITTING

 At 8 weeks i went for a scan and the first question i asked was if i was expecting twins. I was told by the doctor that they could see early signs that am pregnant but that i should come back in 2 weeks and that it will be clearer at that time. I decided to wait through first trimester. This time i was told there was a baby with no growth and no sign of heartbeat, my doctor confirmed that i have suffered a missed abortion and an evacuation was carried out.
4 months later i got pregnant again and now i confirmed at 11weeks that i  was expecting two. I was super excited finally my prayer have been answered.
EXCITED

My first trimester was horrible, nausea was really bad - i wonder why it is called morning sicknes because i was sick 24/7. Over the first 14weeks i lost 9kg and didn't show at all, i found this scary. i did scan every month through my 2nd nd 3rd trimest - just to be sure my babies were fine. 

My 2nd and 3rd trimester were beautiful, i had great health all through ( though heart burn and pelvic pain plagued me at the tail end )
28weeks pregnant

I heard plenty negative comments, that twin never get to full term, high risk pregnancy, gestation diabetics, endema, high blood pressure,etc. but i always rejected it rather i focused on the positive and i kept confessing scriptural truth.

I ate well, lots of fruit and i didn't give in to sweet cravings. i wasn't very active (except in bed) but i did most of my household chores 

I prayed always and made positive confession whenever any negative thought crossed my mind.

I had my goals:
  • Good health for me and my babies
  • Full term babies
  • Supernatural virginal delivery,
  • No tear, no cut no operation.
 
I give glory to God because he was faithful in giving me all i desired.

So I say to anyone pregnant reading this (whether expecting one or more ) as God granted my desire and answered my prayer, so will he do yours in Jesus name amen.

So note this points:
1. Confess positive
2. Pray always
3. Eat well
4. Use your supplement
5. Don't fear
6. Expect the best
7. Be happy

this is bye from David and Daniel
Hope your all learnt something.
