A husband couldn’t believe his eyes when he returned home to discover a sonogram revealing the couple were set to welcome twins.
Austin McCormick, 24, from Aiken, South Carolina, was expecting a normal journey home when he walked in to be greeted by wife Hannah, 22.
Earlier in the day, Hannah had attended what the couple thought would be a routine check-up, as Hannah was seven weeks pregnant at the time.

Because Hannah was so early in her pregnancy, the couple didn’t expect the technician to carry out a sonogram, so Austin did not attend.
But when Hannah arrived, she was told that the technician would need to carry out a sonogram so that she could take some measurements of what Hannah believed was just one child.
As the exam went on, though, the technician’s initial pauses gave Hannah cause for concern – only for the 22-year-old to be then told the surprising news she was looking at twins.
She said Hannah immediately started crying tears of joy, but with Austin not being present – or expecting a sonogram of even one baby – she decided to plan a big surprise for the dad-to-be.
Having told Austin everything was routine and went well, Hannah then placed the sonogram on a board that read “The more the merrier” when she returned home.
As Austin entered the room, he inspected the image that he was not expecting to see before letting out a confused and hilarious shout: “There’s two?!”
Hannah, who secretly captured the moment, and Austin have since welcomed twins Luke and Landon, born a month early.

“The video seemed to have caught a lot of attention on social media and everyone who watches laughs at my husband’s reaction.”
