Is it just me abi did anyone not notice this too. Did they go for scan with the woman to see she is carrying twins?  If they did not, are they simply wishing her to born twins? If they are wishing her to born twins, how sure are they that she likes twins, what if she wants triplets, or quintuplets or even just one? |
