Reece's POV

I wake up before Marjorie, she is now my wife, we have the 20-week scan today, I'm certain we are having a boy and a girl, I don't think I could cope with Two girls, I wouldn't stand a chance against them, I'm bad enough with Char's two girls and Carly. I get up and go downstairs to the kitchen. I make breakfast for me and my wife and take it upstairs; Marjorie is up and in the bathroom. The morning sickness has stopped, the bubs are using her bladder as a punchbag, so she is going to the toilet a lot.

She walks out of the bathroom; her bump is a lot bigger now and we didn't go shopping yesterday, she has one of my tops on. "We will go shopping after the hospital appointment to get you some maternity clothes. "Okay babe"

We enjoy our breakfast and get ready for our appointment, the drive to the hospital takes about 15 minutes, when we arrive, we bump into Mia and Charlotte "Everything okay?"

"Yeah, it's our 20-week scan" replied Mia

"Oh, wow its ours too, are you finding out the gender?"

"Yeah, are you?"

"Yeah, we decided we want to find out, then Marjorie has an appointment to get her wrist checked out, hopefully the splint will be coming off today"

We all walked in together, Marjorie and Charlotte went over to reception and got booked in, after a few minutes we got called through. Marjorie lays on the bed and pulls her top up to show her bubs bump, the midwife has gone through all the details and has got the ultrasound ready, she puts the gel on Marjorie's tummy and within a few seconds the heartbeats of our two babies are there, loud and strong " Do you want to know the gender of your babies?

"Yes please" replied Marjorie

"Okay so Baby 1 is a girl, and Baby 2 is a boy, you have one of each"

"I told you" I said to Marjorie

Marjorie got up off the bed and we sat with the midwife, so now we need to talk about your birth plan, with twins we usually deliver around the 37–38-week mark as but as you have had some trauma recently and after the problems you had with your birth when you were 15, I suggest we deliver at 36 weeks, do you want a natural birth or a c-section"

"Natural birth, I want to be able to pick my babies up"

"Do you want an epidural?"

"Yes"

"Okay great, so we will bring you in at the 35- week mark and induce you, we will probably keep you in for a couple of days, then discharge you home"

"Perfect" We sort a few other things out then leave, as we have our next appointment, we see Mia and Charlotte, "We are having a BOY" Charlotte shouted excitedly

"We are having a girl and a boy"

"Oh, that's amazing news, have you sorted your birthing plan? Charlotte asked

"Yes, I'm being induced at 36 weeks, due to the trauma from the attack and the problems I had when I had my first baby, they want to deliver the bubs then, I'm having a natural birth too, I don't want to wait to pick my babies up"

"So, our babies will be born about 4 weeks apart?" said Charlotte

"Yes, my love they will be, and they will grow up to be best friends"

"What are you doing now?" asked Mia

"We are going shopping I need some maternity clothes; Reece is getting fed up with me borrowing his tops" I laughed
