Am just curious, right from the first day of conception, I have a stronger conviction that am carrying twins. Am in my seventh week, planning 2 go 4 Ultrasound in 12th week. I just can't seems 2 get my mind over this instinct... I pray my boys are growing healthly in me.
how do you know if they are twins? the ultrasound will show 2 sacs? or just one and they will split later?
how this work?
i have my blood test and they told me 10,000 3 weeks..is it high?.. but i only sow 1 sac in the uterus..
anybody?..just curious
I'm 11 wks and have the same bloated belly look, but can still fit into my regular clothes. I'm not sure it's the babies so much as all the food I've been eating to stave off the nausea since I'm much more bloated (and pregnant looking) by the end of the day!
I had to wear my maternity clothes at 8 weeks with my twins. I did have a baby girl before them though but I was back to my pre-pregnancy weight before I got pregnant.
Appt went well and the babies are looking great. It's crazy how fast they grow!! The only thing the Doc was concerned about was me going into pre-term labor. I'm only 12 weeks so I dont know how he can tell but i'm just praying for healthy babies. Thanks for all of the advice. You ladies rock!
Thanks so much for your help ladies!! My pre-pregnancy weight was 140 and I am 5'9. I do have the pudgy belly but not a full blown preggo belly yet. I am hoping because I am taller it is taking longer to "show". It just makes me worried a bit that maybe my pregnancy isnt progressing as well as your ladies did. I have my 12 week appt this afternoon and will let you know how things are going.
Yes my twins were my first pregnancy and starting out I weighed about 135-140.
Good Morning!!
I'm on my first set of twins My last baby was 11 yr's ago so the Dr's have been saying that with the large gap between pregnancies that this will seem like my first pregnancy all over again. *yay* lol. ugh!!
At 10 weeks my work pants were feeling snug, by 11 weeks I was getting pretty creative and looping an elastic through the button hole on my pants and then hookingthe other end over the button, just to give me an extra inch or so on my pants. LOL. And by 12 weeks,,,I had to throw in the towel and grab my first pair of many, maternity pants.
I've noticed a huge difference with singletons and twin pregnancies. Singletons is a more gradual growth, where as with twins....I've been growing in Spurts, practically over night. lol.
Best of luck w/your pregnancy.
I'm presently 35 weeks along with twins (boy & girl)
Was the twins your first children?
I had a small pudgy belly at 6 weeks and full blown baby belly by 12 weeks.
with my first set of twins I could hide it until january (I was due in june 1st so I don;t know how many weeks that is) BUt "showing" is such a relative term. By the end of january you could tell I was preggo with my belly!
WIth the next set of twins - most people noticed in late July and I was due December 8th - but again "showing" is relative. In my work clothes at a seminar no one knew I was preggo in August. But when I went to the gym each evening after the seminar it was obvious in my work out clothes)
I am 5 three and around 115 - I weighed 120 ish until I was about 20 weeks along
