Twins

[Chrissyjohnson]

Hi just found out a few days ago I'm having twins !!!! This will be my 7th pregnancy . Five resulted in misscarages and I have a five month old daughter . I know the risk is high with twins but I'm hopping having one successful pregnancy will make a difference ? The dr told me I'm under five weeks and there is no fetal pull yet ..... Is that ok ? The dr also said I had to have blood drawn to measure hormones .... They said it came back great but for me to redew it next week is that normal ? Basically is any of this sounding normal ?

Oh well they said there are two amniotic sacs and two yokes and my hormone levels are consistent with two pregnancies  I would post the picture but I don't think I can on here but it's very clear

Sorry for the question but how can they tell its twins so soon in the pregnancy?

Congratulations! Sounds like everything is on track. They take more than one sample to see whether the hormone levels increase over time (it is supposed to increase). I should soon start feeling slight menstrual-like cramps as that seems to be in indication of your uterus stretching. Best of luck and take it easy!
