There on the sonogram, taken six weeks into the pregnancy, were not two or three fetuses, not five or six, but seven budding human forms, each in its own tiny sac of amniotic fluid. Even now, half a year later, she can't fully describe how she felt. "The words shock and disbelief come to mind," she says. "For a good length of time, I couldn't wrap my mind around this...
