Dont laugh

This may be a stupid question. But im 35 weeks and pretty big. All my family keeps asking if there's 2 or saying that there's one hiding behind the other. I've had 5 ultrasounds and I've only ever seen 1. So is it possible for there to be one hiding behind the other

A lady I know her friend was pregnant. Had an ultrasound every month and she was told there was only one. When she had her baby she ended up with 2.the other had hid behind the other one.

I keep gettin told I've two... but no way. I'm just big

Years ago it did happen a surprise twin at birth but thats because not all women had ultrasounds dopplers etc.. now with all the medical stuff I'd say it's extremely rare

I have an ultrasound thursday. I've been measuring 2 weeks ahead as well. So I'm hoping it's just extra amniotic fluid

I'm 12 weeks in 2 days and when I had my first ultra sound I was told instantly it was twins. If it's your first pregnancy you usually gain more weight. Plus if it's a boy you tend to gain more weight. But if the docs keep saying there's one then you're probably just having one lol.

Pretty much impossible. By 35 weeks your Dr would have to be an idiot to miss that honestly.

Nope. It's not. It would show at the 11-13th week scan the latest. Normally they know around 7th week already. People are messing about with you. Don't take them seriously. It ain't possible. :)
