Before the wedding, the doctor made it crystal clear: Thomas Sterling was born without sperm. He'd never be able to have kids. Linda Sterling, the matriarch of the Sterling family, held my hand and said, "Rebecca, I'm sorry you have to go through this." My heart softened, and I agreed to marry him. Three months into our marriage, I started getting morning sickness. At the hospital, the doctor burst out excitedly, "Congratulations. You're having triplets!" My mind went blank, and my legs turned to jelly. Just then, Thomas called, his voice eerily calm, "Which hospital are you at? I'm coming over now." I stared at the three little dots on the ultrasound, my palms slick with sweat.
