My Husband Said, “You Wanted to Be a Mother, So Act Like One,” Then Left Me Alone With Our Six-Month-Old Twins — When He Came Back, He Froze in the Doorway Adrian and I had dreamed about having children for years.
So when we learned we were expecting twin girls, it felt like everything we had waited for was finally happening.
Then the babies arrived. By the time they were six months old, I was exhausted in a way I hadn’t known was possible.
My days blurred together. Feedings. Diapers. Laundry. Crying. Bottles.
And trying to calm two babies at the same time while surviving on almost no sleep.
I handled most of it without complaining. I knew becoming parents was a huge adjustment for both of us.
Then one evening at our home on Cedarbrook Lane in Bellmere, I was struggling to get both girls to sleep.
