Some Background

I have so many things that I want to talk about, but I guess I will start with the little adventure that changed my life forever.  Getting pregnant with twins.  Spreadsheet guy and I had been married for about four years when we decided we were ready for a child.  Well, it was more like I decided and he went along with it.  He was happy either way.  Regardless, it wasn't as easy as we thought it would be.  After about a year, I finally got pregnant.  I was sick RIGHT AWAY.  I went to visit my doctor for a blood test to confirm the pregnancy.  When the nurse called and gave me the HGC numbers they seemed extremely high to me (and I had Dr WebMd at my side) .  Right away visions of me surrounded by four or five children filled my head and I started freaking out.  I called the nurse and asked if the high numbers meant I would be having more than one child.  She told me to relax, get off of the Internet (how did she know?) and we would take a look the following week.
