There is no way to determine if you are carrying twins until your doctor performs an ultrasound. An increased appetitie is quite common in early pregnancy even in singleton pregnancies.  Bloating is also very common.

Congrats on the BFP.. :)

u/s is the only way to be 100% sure. i had twins (they're 14 months old now) BUT i can tell you what happened with me when we started to suspect that we were having twins. when i was about 6 weeks pregnant (we found out at 9 weeks when i went to the er for a suspected miscarriage) i had a "baby bump" already. i was a size 5 and went to a size 8 within a matter of weeks. by time i was 9 weeks i couldn't fit into regular jeans anymore. i had to buy maternity pants. i was having HORRIBLE back pains. it hurt so bad i couldn't walk sometimes, i was having fainting spells. when i went to the er my entire problem was that baby b (our eli james) was laying on spine and baby a (our brett michael) was laying on my sciatic nerve. and the combination of that was what made all the problems.

ask your ob to do an u/s as soon as he can to confirm your suspisons. but like quinn said though, bloating is very common.
