Nature never ceases to astonish us, even though medicine has advanced significantly and we can now discover a lot about our kid even before it is born.
Nicole and Tod Bailey, a British couple, already had a four-year-old kid named Lucas and were thrilled to learn more good news.
Nicola was carrying a new baby. “Something seems to be awry, and I get an odd feeling.
Nicole recalls, “The tummy grew huge, and I felt awful, too. Yet it quickly became apparent that there was a very excellent reason for this: Nicole was expecting twins, not just one kid.
The rupture of her waters occurred in the 32nd week, but thankfully, the skilled medical professionals were able to stop her contractions.
Hence, Harper and Quinn, the two infants, might delay their due date by one week and continue to grow inside of their mother.
The girls were treated by a doctor as soon as possible because they were delivered preterm.
Yet, the physician visited Nicola’s bedside and apologized barely 30 minutes after Harper was born.
Insights from testing subsequently supported their suspicions that Harper had Down syndrome.
The parents were unaware that one of their children had an extra chromosome because nothing unusual seemed to be happening throughout the pregnancy.
Our family is special, and I wouldn’t trade it for anything, Nicola remarked.
“Harper-Harper, and Quinn-Quinn,” she said. Despite how difficult it is, I try not to compare them because they are different from one another.
Nicole made the choice to retain the child. For a while, she took special courses, but now that she has, their family’s life is more or less typical.
