WOW. Well, congrats to all and yes, she'll be getting a big ol' reality check soon. How old is she? She's very lucky to have a supportive father and stepmother.
Twins! <shaking head>

Donna, yes, we could use that bonfire of prayers! God certainly does have a sense of humor.
Jaime, she turned 18 last week. Happy 18th birthday to her.
She actually did pass out and it took a good 20 minutes to fully revive her. She STILL denied it was possible that she was pregnant.
Now we need to find out what about school. I think she has enough credits to graduate early legally. She's going to get huge very fast and I can't see forcing all that emotional stress on her if its something we can avoid by taking her out of school. She WILL be going to college in September no matter what.
Oh my gosh (((hugs))) what a shock! I read your other thread when you were wondering if she was pregnant, and now...twins! Congratulations and lots of prayers on the way. Has she told her boyfriend yet?
She said she told him last night that she might be pregnant and then she started to have LES so I don't think it went well. We'll see. I'm not holding out much hope for him standing by her side through all this. I do worry how hubby's going to react to the boy's reaction.Quote:

when my MIL was expecting my hubby she had two heartbeats and was thinking twins, but when she got images they found out it was just one but the umbilical cord was so big it masde the second heartbeat, so this could be her case, but wih twins in family its more likely that they are, but you can hope............eitherway they´ll be such a joy......regardles of the circumstances
Hugs
Oh boy!! When it rains it pours. Prayers for all of you.
Would it really be such a bad thing if the boyfriend didn't stick around? Having no father isn't necessarily a bad thing, especially if "Dad" isn't a good person to begin with.
Be sure to go after boyfriend for child support though!

I'm not worried about much because we'll be there for her no matter what, but I want to make sure he doesn't try to deny the baby and skip town. I hope his parents are good enough people to make sure he lives up to his responsibilities.
Twins!!! :eek: Wow. I can understand why she passed out. Twins...two babies, when she wasn't expecting a child at all. Poor girl must be so traumatized. :( I hope she learns from this. Take care of yourself, and try to look at things in a positive way. You're going to have TWO NEW BABIES in the house. :D Two new babies to keep you happy and busy. He he he. I'll be praying everything turns out okay for you.
Once you get the child support guys after him, they'll stay on his tail & take a % of whatever he erns & give it to the mother & baby. So if he makes big money down the road, the % will brin gin more $$ to the mother & baby.
Here in Canada, the first child is worth aprox 300.00 & the 2ed is worth aprox 200.00 for a father who clears about 30k/yr after taxes. The % can go up & down, so it depends on the childs needs & why the father isn't in the picture.

TWINS! Wow. I'm sure she's scared to death, but in a year she'll wonder how she ever lived without them. Congrats!
