Pregnant after a Loss

Pregnant two months after D&C, could it be twins?

So my fiancé and I were 12 weeks pregnant when we found out the baby had anacephly and we decided we couldn't bare going on with the pregnancy and knowing our little one will pass. We let our angel go 1/25/14. I miss her/him .
On Monday 03/31/14 I had a dream I was pregnant an decided to test when u woke up I seen an extremely faint line but it looked like an evap to me so I tossed it. Idk why I decided to test again thur 04/03/14 and it came out positive (dollar tree brand) ran to family dollar and bought an ept (positive) then I tested the next day after it was slightly darker and then again today 04/06/14 and even darker, I haven't even missed my period yet I'm due 5-8 days before my missed period. Do you think it can be twins? Idk why but this pregnancy feels completely different from my first and I'm having cramping on both sides apose to just my left. I just have a feeling it's twins. Can any mommies tell me what they think? Looking forward to a healthy pregnancy this time, I love my fiancé to pieces I want to love him more and give him a family. I'm so blessed and in love. Ty ladies!!

Re: Pregnant two months after D&C, could it be twins?

  • I'm just gonna warn you, I've seen these "I think it could be twins" threads take a downward spiral very quickly on other boards (1st tri, especially). But that being said, I will not be the one who starts it.

    This is my second pregnancy as well. We terminated just before 19 weeks, our little girl had trisomy 13. I completely understand how you feel about this pregnancy being so different. But that happens to almost every woman, whether they carry to term or not. As for the the HPT lines darkening, that won't give you any indication of how many stowaways your harboring at the moment.

    When I first found out this time around that I was pregnant, I was eating everything in sight for the first few weeks. I joked with my hubby that I must be having twins because with my first pregnancy I never felt any more hungry than before I got KU. I would seriously eat a meal and a half hour late my stomach would growl. It was pathetic. But that passed and there's only one little. I truly feel 'more pregnant' this time around, but that doesn't translate to more babies, just means that your body is handling this one differently.

    Congrats on your BFP!! :)

  • I am sorry for your loss and I hope this pregnancy will be a much more positive experience for you. Darkness of the lines on a pregnancy test won't tell you if you're having one or two babies. Even a high beta HcG number from a blood draw is not a reliable predictor of multiples. Only an ultrasound will tell you. Perhaps your doctor will order an early ultrasound for you, given your history of loss.

    Best of luck to you. Of course it could be twins. It could also not be twins... I've been pregnant with twins and a singleton and there was no difference to me in the early weeks.

    All AL always welcome in my threads!

  • Congrats and welcome!  As the other ladies have said, the darkness of the line on an HPT does not correlate to the number of fertilized eggs.

    Congrats! As other pp's said, there is no way to know until you get an ultrasound. I was totally sure I was pregnant with twins in this pregnancy since I have never been so sick in my life since day one (I started throwing up before I even tested). I am carrying only one, symptoms are not good to predict anything, just plain annoying :)

  • I am very sorry for your loss. I got pegnany in February, I had my d&c at the beginning of November and I too ha a faint pink line. I would defiantly call your OB and get an ultra sound and hormone levels checked as soon as you can. Best if luck and I'll be praying for you!
