I posted this in GQ but no reply. I am hoping to get a response here... thanks in advance for any/all input:

Last night I found out from H that OW has been in contact with him and she 'let it slip' that she was carrying twins... (she got an abortion). Now... OW was not even 8 weeks preg. Is this possible?

I am a nurse and from the knowledge I have I feel like she is lying. Honestly I'm thinking the entire pregnancy is a lie. H swears up and down they did not do the dirty until december. (If that is true... but I would like to believe him). So she calls over christmas, he was home visiting... he's in the army, and she says that she is pregnant. This would be just after the holiday. On Jan 11 she took the abortion pill. What she says is that she took one pill in the morning and one pill at night. (From my reseach I found this is incorrect procedure for the ab. pill). Then I find out that she had to have a manual abortion in the begining of Feb.

This is apparently when the md let it slip that she only expelled ONE of the fetuses.

Does this not make sence to anyone else??

It sure doesn't make much sense to me either.

The biggest thing I am wondering is why you think she might be telling the truth? This is an OW who had an affair with a married man. Do you think maybe she could also be capable of lying?

I do.

It isn't beyond the OW script to claim a pregnancy to try to get the affair partner back.

Also, I think the only way the abortion pill wouldn't have expelled both twins is if the OW has two uteruses (uteri?)

I wouldn't give her claims any more of your time. It's not worth your energy.

See that's exactly how I've been thinking...

But he's so torn apart that he asked her to get rid of a child... then she calls and says it was actually twins!!! UGH. Maybe I'm more mad that he'd simply believe her without asking to see lab proof she was preg to begin with!

I have twins..........I knew I had twins at 4 weeks. NOW I had invitro and was monitored very closely from the day they did the procedure. I was actually pregnant with triplets........and lost one at 7 weeks.

As a nurse you should know that a lot of woman can be pregant w/twins and loose one. It's not uncommon to loose one early on.

I know nothing of the morning after pill so I can't give an opinion on that but being pregnant with more than one I can.

As far as her lying............well your husband and her both cheated...........whose to say they both are not lying????

Yup yup. Anything she can tell him to bring on more emotional chaos, guilt, feelings in him to rescue her, etc etc... just turn the knife turn the knife.

Our OW said it was triplets, then she lost one, then it was a tumor, then it was a baby again, she just kept trying and he just kept believing her IN SPITE OF the FACTS (or at least conclusions obvious to the rest of the world) until she actually did end up pregnant. Argh, don't you just hate OW's????

Cheaters lie, constantly. When OW told FWH that she thought she was pregnant, she was actually in her last desperate attempt to keep him in the affair.

He refused to discuss options with her at all until she had proof. She "claimed" that she had to wait ten days for a Dr. appointment before she would know.

Well, I can tell you that the ten days were just long enough for him to completely decided that it was over and done. Even if she had been PG, which she wasn't, he would not have chosen a life with her. I guess it worked out well for him because if she had been PG by him, I wouldn't have stayed with him. My boundary!

A few days after telling him she wasn't PG, She flew across the country to see him one last time and since he knew she would stop at nothing to trap him, he refused to even touch her. That was Nov 03 and he has never seen her again.

THEY LIE, ALL OF THEM!
