A first-time mother has revealed the terrifying moment she found out she was pregnant with identical twin boys – just six weeks after her daughter was 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧.

Eliza Curby, 27, from Sydney ‘didn’t even think about contraception’ after the 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 of her first 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 Charlie in January, 2016.

The young mum had always believed the old wives tale that ‘you can’t get pregnant if you are breast feeding’ but she proved that’s not the case.

‘Breast feeding doesn’t do s***, this pregnancy happened, it is real’ she told Daily Mail Australia.

‘My doctor actually uses me as an example for couples when they say they don’t have any contraception plans in place after the 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡 of their 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥.’

‘I knew I was pregnant straight away because when I woke up it felt like I had been hit in the head with a baseball bat.

‘I took four pregnancy tests before one came back positive.’

Ms Curby and her partner Ben, 38, didn’t believe the first doctor who told them their second pregnancy was with twins.

‘When we found out Ben’s face just went white,’ she said.

‘But for two or three weeks were in denial – we just thought the doctor was new and might not know.’

‘Then I saw the obstetrician we had with Charlie and he confirmed it – I have never been so nervous in my life.’

But because she was frightened she was ‘in denial’ for a few months before she started ‘showing’

Ms Curby was in denial for a few more weeks until her pregnant belly began to show – then she realised she had to prepare her life for the two unexpected arrivals.

Then it was her turn to shock her friends and family.

‘I was really excited to tell them I knew they were going be way more shocked than I was,’ she said.

‘When we went to dad and told him we had exciting news he thought we were going to get married.

‘Then when we said we were going for round two, with twins his face turned to horror.’

The young mum is now writing down her experiences in a quirky blog which highlights what it is like to have three babies under one.

The couple have been together  for two years – and now have three 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥ren together

From switching up her trusty 4WD to a mum-van to planning how to leave the house and then facing the gaze of strangers once she is there.

‘The other day I was walking down the street and people were staring at me like I was some kind of dog-walker but for kids,’ she said.

‘I sat down at a cafe but had to leave because I was so embarrassed by all the staring.’

Ms Curby has been with Ben for just two years and joked ‘he has never known me not pregnant – at least I am not as emotional now’.

‘We are a pretty good team so our relationship has been surprisingly fine with all these changes,’ she said.

The young mum doesn’t have any tips for any other mums in the same situation

‘He also loves being a dad.’

In fact the couple’s eldest 𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘭𝘥 and little girl Charlie has already picked him as the ‘favourite’.

‘When I was pregnant I was too big to play with her so she did a lot of stuff with dad.’

The young mum doesn’t have any tips for any other mums in the same situation.

‘I was trying to think of some tips the other day for my blog and realised I probably don’t have it together enough for that yet.’

‘I feel like it has taken me eight weeks, since the boys were 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧, to get my head above water.’

Ms Curby said by the time her first 𝐛𝐨𝐫𝐧 Charlie was a six-month-old she thought she had the ‘𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 thing down pat’ but having to do it all over again with twins is ‘completely different’.

‘It is like I have had to start all over again. But now it is just everything in threes, three bibs, three 𝑏𝑎𝑏𝑦 seats – three everything.’
