Eliza was really convinced that she really was pregnant again, around four home tests later she got the result that confirmed her thoughts, she was, in fact, pregnant again!
The next thing to do was to get to the doctors to really make sure that the test wasn’t wrong, but as sure as eggs are eggs she was pregnant. Even more than that, yes there is more, there was another surprise…
She told the news:
“The technician seemed awkward and uncomfortable, before he finally said, ‘Look, it’s early days…. but… I think there’s two.’ “
That’s right folks, there really was two!!
“I was so scared but secretly super excited – I think everyone has a secret desire for identical twins.”
Twins usually run in families, but for there to be identical twins, it’s not heard of at all. It took a good while for all this to register…
Thankfully for Ben and Eliza, their twin boys went all the way to term, to 36 weeks without any problems at all.
The two boys were born and named, Jack Antony Richard and Wolfe George Harry, they were lovely and in perfect health, everyone was thrilled with the new additions to the family circle.
Even with other young children in the house, the couple wouldn’t have it any other way, what a wonderful couple!
One great way they look at how things turned out is, it’s just like they had triplets, constant diaper changes, pacifier hunts and breastfeeding bonanzas and that’s Eliza’s day every day, rinse and repeat!
Now Eliza even has her own blog called “twingenuity” she shares what life is like under their crazy, loved-filled house!
