I Came Home with My Newborn Twins to Find the Locks Changed, My Stuff Thrown Out, and a Note Waiting for Me

After giving birth to my twin daughters, I hoped my husband would finally put our family first—but he didn’t. Coming home from the hospital, I found our suitcases, diaper bags, and even the crib mattress dumped on the lawn. A note from Derek told me to leave, claiming he “knew everything.”

Panicked, I tried calling him, but he didn’t answer. Later, I discovered his mother, Lorraine, sitting in our dining room, calmly sipping tea. She admitted she’d faked a sudden illness, bribed a nurse, and locked me out—all because I gave birth to girls instead of a boy.

I drove to the hospital to confront Derek. Shocked and furious, he rushed home with me. Together, we confronted his mother, kicked her out, and cut her from our lives. It was a nightmare—but it ultimately brought Derek, me, and our daughters closer than ever.
