I'm getting all of the same comments. I think it bothered me more when I first found out because I was so scared and didn't have a lot of answers. So when someone would ask, "Twins? What are you gonna do?!?" I always responded with some smartass answer like, "I'm gonna see which one cries the least and keep that one!"
But now I have accepted it as my fate. I am excited to have 3 children. I am a damn good mother and I will love these boys just as strongly as I love my daughter. They will be warm and they will be loved if its the last thing I do. People say stupid shit because they don't think it could ever happen to them. But it does. Twins are a blessing bestowed only to those whose hearts are big enough to carry them. It does not matter how we do it, it only matters that we do it.
People are ignorant and I am sure I was the same way before my kids were conceived. I think its best to smile and say thank you. Because, depsite the comment, people are taking the time to revel at how remarkable you are. Your body is in mid-miracle and it can sometimes be a little too much for onlookers. So hold your head proud, mama.
