Welcome to round 2 of my congrats!
Sign ups are still open if anyone still wants to play here's the link, http://www.behindthename.com/bb/view.php?id=3687721&board=game
If you do sign up please post it here and put my entry or something in the subject box so I'll know and then I'll give you a child. Davidica, Dracotorix, Miss_smiley, Rubymay92 you need to do round one.
Round 1 : http://www.behindthename.com/bb/view.php?id=3688524&board=gameRules:
- Names come from this link: http://www.behindthename.com/top/lists/100ud1890.php
- No spelling changes, NN's are fine. You can have up to two MN's if you want.
- If you miss three rounds you're out, you'll be responsible for going back and making up the rounds. If you're going away, try to tell me so I won't drop you.
- If you need to drop out just say and I'll do that for you.
- You can write if you want to (see prompt) but it's not required it's just fun to read (I'd actually like it if you did, but if you can't you don't have to). :)
- Ages are aloud, but you have to keep up with them and I'll probably say how long it's been every round.Writing Prompt:
Since you weren't expecting to have a child that soon you decided to wait a year or two to have another one. After a year of trying and waiting you decided it probably wasn't working and that you should give it a rest for a while. A month later, after having been sick the whole time with what you thought was a stomach bug,(but it lasted way to long!) you decided to take a test and see what was going on! You would have gone to the doctor with your hubby but he had to work so you went alone. The test said yes and you tried to fit that in with this supposed stomach bug you thought you had.
It fit perfectly! But you had been soo sick that it almost didn't seem real. You called hubby before you left the hospital. How did he react? What did he say? Did he come home early to be with you? A few months after you found out, the doctor thought he saw two babies instead of just one. How did he tell you? How did you react?
There was a complication, what was it? Emotionally how did you deal with it? How was the pregnancy? How was the birth? How are you doing with your two new little bundles of joy?
How is your now 3 year old child doing with the babies? What does he/she think of them? Here are your families!~ Acquarella~ *

DD/DD - Viola Esther / Lucille Margaret 'Lucy'Hunter was almost as excited as Robin when he heard the news, he couldn't believe it, they were having another child! He came home a bit earlier than usual that day and made sure to cook dinner for Robin and Theodore so that she wouldn't have to.The doctor told her happily, assuming (correctly of course) that it would be good news. And Robin was ecstatic when she heard. Hunter was nervous at first, but quickly got over it and was just as happy as his wife.Robin had more trouble this time around than she did with Theodore, she figures it had something to do with all the extra estrogen running through her system. During the birth all seemed to be going well until Viola actually came out, she had her umbilical cord wrapped around her neck twice. Thankfully the Doctors got it off before any kind of damage was done.Robin and Hunter pamper their two girls nonstop and Theodore is always trying to help with them, he is very curious about his two new siblings and loves to be around them.

Andrew Thomas & Peter Lawrence (nb)After not feeling well for quite some time I realized that I might actually not have the flu, but instead be pregnant. We had been trying since Cora was a year old and after taking a break we had succeded. Ross and I were thrilled at the prospect of a new baby. Just to make sure the test was correct we decided I should get it confirmed by a doctor. Our local women's hospital has a strict no children policy so Ross had to stay home with Cora. During the appointment the doctor made a suprising discovery, I was pregnant with (identical) twins! I wanted to wait till I got home to tell Ross but I just couldn't so I called him and told him. Ross was beyond shocked (my brother and I are the only twins in the family) and even more suprised that they were identical. When we got home we celebrated. The happiness was short lived as at around 25 weeks we found out the boys had TTTS (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/TTTS) and I was forced to check into the hospital soon after. By week 31 it was apparent that Peter (the Donor) was dying. The babies were born less than an hour after that discovery. Andrew was born first and weighed 4lbs 5oz, Peter was born second and weighed 2lbs 14oz. Both the boys were immediately sent to the NICU. After a month in the hospital Andrew was sent home. While glad that we could bring one home we longed to bring the other. Cora was very interested in Andrew and even though she had stated she wanted two sisters she still loved him so. On their original due-date Peter came home. He was still very frail and frankly Cora showed no interest in him. We hope she'll soon warm up to him and love them both the same....

Chester Sidney Isaac
Florence Edith Pearl and Martha Lillian AliceJack was delighted when Violet told him the news. He cheered and told his workmates and his boss let him out of work early so he could spend the day with Violet and Chester. When the doctor told us we were having the twins we were pleasantly surprised. Violet suffered from pre-eclampsia so she was admitted into hospital to control her blood pressure. Violet found it stressful to have to stay in hopsital away from her husband and son and Jack and Chester missed her lots so they were very happy when she was discharged. The birth was premature (34 weeks) so the twins were quite small when they were born but they were strong and healthy. Florence and Martha are doing really well now and are settling in to their routine. Violet and Jack are exhausted now they have 3 children. Chester was a little wary of the twins at first but that wore off and he loves to help his parents and he can't wait until they are old enough to play with him.

You called hubby before you left the hospital.
How did he react? He was already suspecting it so it didn't take him by surprise
What did he say? "I knew it!"
Did he come home early to be with you? He couldn't but they had a special dinner later on
A few months after you found out, the doctor thought he saw two babies instead of just one. How did he tell you? "Please... TAKE A SIT"
How did you react? "OMG!!!"
There was a complication, what was it? High pressure on the last month of pregnancy
Emotionally how did you deal with it? It was tough, Susie had to stay at home with a fetal heart beat monitor
How was the pregnancy? OK but Susie's tummy was about to explode during the last months, too much back pain
How was the birth? Unluckily it was a cesarean... it went fine but Susie'd have prefered another natural birth at home
How are you doing with your two new little bundles of joy? It not easy to take care of two babies and a 3-year-old at the same time but watching the kids grow up is priceless
How is your now 3 year old child doing with the babies? What does he/she think of them? Dave is enjoying being the big brother, he is giving them kisses and singing to them all the time

It was really surprising to be pregnant with twins, since twins don't run in either side of the family. The pregnancy went well, until they found out that Abby had gestational diabetes. Chris became obsessed with her diet, because he always worries more than she does, but in the end Abby delivered two healthy babies, Gracie and Lydia. Charlotte got used to being a big sister fast and loves to help her mum with everything baby-related.

Craig reacted with sheer joy at the news of Holly's pregnancy. He 'wow'ed several times on the phone, and made it a point to leave work early to be with Holly as soon as possible. They decided not to tell Harvey just yet, in case something unpredictable happened.
At an appointment a few months later, Holly and Craig were discussing whether to reuse some of Harvey's old baby clothes or to buy new ones. The doctor chimed in and commented they should do both, because she doubted there would be enough clothes for two babies. The Fordhams' jaws dropped at this, and it was only after they saw the two babies in the sonogram that reality sunk in.
When Holly reached her seventh month of pregnancy she noticed some bleeding, and after rushing to the doctor, she was told she had placenta previa. It was kept more or lesss under control with medication, but about a month later she gave birth to twins Lucy and Clara through C-section. Being prematures, the girls were immediately taken to the NICU, but apart from an undeveloped respiratory system, which is quite normal for premature babies, they were very much healthy. After a couple of weeks Craig and Holly were allowed to take the twins home, which didn't sit well with Harvey. He was used to getting all the attention, and is now very upset to see his sisters hogging the show. His parents try to involve him in caring for the girls, but he's still a bit reluctant. Also, the fact that Lucy and Clara are both rather fussy doesn't help.
