Jessi Cruickshank: I’m having twins and I feel completely out of control
The moment you find out you are pregnant should be magical. You should see a perfectly clear, almost glowing pregnancy test result then look up into your handsome partner?s eyes as they fill with tears of joy and love. At least, that?s how I always pictured it. Instead, I found out I was pregnant?on FaceTime.
Evan and I have been together for 10 years, married for three. I?m 34, and while I?m not great at math or gynecology, I do know that all of this adds up to shrinking ovaries.
Our fridge used to be filled with alcohol, now it?s plastered with birth announcements. Our friends used to want to meet us at bars, now they want to get together at playgrounds. We figured it was time to start catching up.
At the time of the Great FaceTime Pregnancy Reveal, I was living in Toronto, shooting CBC?s The Goods, and Evan was working full-time in L.A. We had recently returned from our winter holiday together and I noticed something for the first time since puberty: My boobs look big today. I bought a pregnancy test and placed a casual FaceTime call to my husband. Knowing how long it can take to get pregnant, I wasn?t expecting much from my first test. As predicted, I held it up to the phone and told him, ?It?s negative. There?s only one dark line and the other one is really light.?
?What?s it supposed to look like"? he asked. ?Did you read the instructions"? Obviously, I didn?t read the instructions. I?ve seen enough Teen Mom to know how pregnancy test...
