Lady Who Had A Miscarriage & Had To Take Over 243 Injections To Prevent Another Miscarriage, Becomes A Mother Of Twin Girls
“I met my husband at a wedding. We didn’t want to get into an arranged marriage headfirst so we decided to get to know each other.
We spent a year dating, before he popped the question on a yacht! I said yes–I knew we’d have a picture perfect future!
A year later, in 2015, I was pregnant. It came to us as the best surprise ever! We were ready to welcome the baby. I even joined prenatal classes. But, my happiness was short lived.
8 months into it, I noticed a major swelling on my leg. It spread all over. It was so severe that I couldn’t move at night. One night, I started bleeding uncontrollably & was rushed to the hospital.
I fainted & underwent surgery.
I suffered from pre-eclampsia. After a sonography, the doctor found out that my baby had no heartbeat. But when I gained consciousness, my husband told me that my baby was safe.
It took him a few days to reveal the truth. He didn’t want it to affect me mentally as I had high blood pressure.
When I found out, I didn’t know how to feel. I didn’t cry either. Everyone said I was strong, but in reality, I was suppressing my feelings. It was tough. But my family was with me the entire time—they were my ultimate support system.
Conceiving again was a question because my body had faced trauma. But I focused on the ‘Law of Attraction’—I envisioned what I wanted & had faith that the universe would make it happen.
So I wished for twins. I believed that if God had taken one baby away, I’d be blessed with two next time.
My dreams came true when I held a positive test in 2017. I made an appointment & the doctor informed me about bearing two babies! My husband & I were shocked but this was the happiest day!
It wasn’t smooth—I had to prevent a miscarriage again & took 243 injections for the same! But through it all, I kept a positive attitude & delivered 2 healthy girls!
When my husband heard them crying, he breathed a sigh of relief.
They’re almost 2 years old & it can’t get any better. After everything we’ve been through, this still feels surreal. I have to pinch myself to remember that my family is truly complete.
That being positive in those moments was worth it & that life has given us double happiness & double the joy.”
