Congratulations on your new little bundles. Yes I have had 4 single pregnancies and this 5th time around with twins is way different. I have had severe morning sickness for the last 10wks and hoping it's tapering down soon. The racing heart is new and just thought I'd check before jumping to calling a nurse line. I appreciate the feed back. Thank you

Girl I wish you the very best. I remember all my prenatal symptoms from trimester to trimester. Not tryna give a horror story here...but pregnancy is tough...pregnancy with multiples...whole other ball game. Any pregnancy symptoms one would have with a Singleton... Be prepared to experience those same symptoms in a double dose. I just delivered my b/g twins Oct 6, 2015 (0103 am son 0113 am daughter...by way of induction at 38+2  @ only 1cm dialated. I labored 13 hours total..after 6 hours of medicine free labor, I elected for a epidural. Pros n Cons to that too..but we made it thru) all in all...yes, its "normal" in a not so normal kinda way (unless you doc says something different) it will all be worth it though after you delivet those sweet babies.

Heart palpitations are normal during pregnancy, but if you find they're happpening quite frequently, then mention it to your doctor.
