Signs of twins?

knottie795fbd7762b6ca47

Im 9wks into my 2nd pregnancy. I am nauseous all day everyday regardless of how much, how little or how often i eat. I have two distinctive sharp pains near my left hip bone that occur off and on throughout the day, and so exhausted no matter how much sleep i get. These symptoms are way more intense then i had the first time around.

On top of it i got a postive pregnancy test 6 days before missed period and it was positive in seconds of setting the test down. It happend to be fathersday when i took the test and told my husband. 
An hour later we saw two storks fly over our house. 

Last week we had Chinese food for dinner. We have this thing where one of us holds both fortune cookies in our hands and the other picks which one they want. My husband was holding them and i chose the cookie. It has two cookies in one wrapper.

Two days ago after it rained my husband saw a rainbow and when i looked i said no there is a double rainbow. 

I go in this week for an exam, blood test and doppler, but have to wait 2 more weeks for an ultrasound.

Am i crazy to read into these signs?

I vote worm.

I also got my BFP six days before my period was due, my hcg levels almost tripled instead of doubled, and my morning sickness set in fairly early.

This one day at work a coworker came in with two black eyes, and my husband decided to have two beers one night instead of his usual one. Also, my dad caught two trouts when fishing and I almost got hit by two cars in one day while crossing the road. My ultrasound still showed one baby ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Omg.. thats so crazy because when I found out I was pregnant I only had one nose, last week we only ordered one pizza, and last night when DH pointed out the moon.. AND THERE WAS ONLY ONE MOON!! And I'm definitely only carrying a singleton... so it sounds like you are definitely carrying twins. I bet you're already showing, too!? 
ETA - possible flutters, even?!

Where do you live where there are wild storks roaming the skies? 

Signs of twins: two babies in ultrasound with two distinct heartbeats.

Although, maybe you should double down at the casino the next time you go and test your doubles luck! That would certainly convince me. 

cmjenkies

Also thanks, I’m going to have to get Chinese for dinner now thanks to you. 

madreofdragons

Awww shit @grebretso my H is on his 6th beer. 

cmjenkies

You guys.. I also saw a double rainbow today (for real real), and I ordered a double cheeseburger for dinner.  could it be?

OP- Definitely twins!! Those “signs” could never happen to someone pregnant with just one baby......
oh wait. 

lifeislove87

@cmjenkies omg me too, just called DH and said “need Chinese”

Also, my hcg was through the roof and I had a positive pregnancy test at 7dpo, still one baby. Only an ultrasound will tell

First off, I love you guys.  

Secondly, OP, definitely trust all of those signs and not the OB. They have no clue what they’re talking about and they don’t know how to read an US. When you go into labor, make sure they go back in search for the second baby if only one decides to make an appearance. If they leave it in there, your womb will be forever inhabitated and you don’t want to turn into the lady still carrying an elementary student in a few years!

Forgot to add: while twins is the most logical outcome here, please be aware there’s a slight chance it could also be one baby and one worm. Or maybe even two worms. You just never know!

Also, OP, please return in 2 weeks and update us. I will actually crawl into a hole and die if you are pregnant with twins.

Always a possibility of worms

***LURKING AND NOW STUCK IN THE BOX***

This is too good to miss if OP does ever come back and DD's. This thread is great reading... Excellent work ladies!

@kayjay44 did you draw those worms yourself? Because they are AMAZING.

kayjay44

@jessier19 - I wish I could take credit, but it's google.

Public service announcement: you should probably eat two servings of everything from here on out, just to be safe, you know. If you decline a second helping, you're basically saying that you don't want one of your two babies. Also maybe take the steps two at a time.

Three servings - one for each baby and one for her.

It's always the ones with the Knottie user names.

I truly think these people are just trolls trying to stir the pot BUT it is very entertaining.

Double ice cream. You’re welcome. 

hannahbananas11

@okayestmom12 Good point. In that case, I'd like to sign up for twins, as I really enjoy ice cream. Can I just double my ice cream intake and a second fetus will appear???

kayjay44

@hannahbananas11 - Based on the logic presented here, yes. Also, it can't hurt to try.

I had two cookies today instead of one. Looks like we’re going from a family of 3 to a family of 5!

I could only stomach half my sandwich today. I guess I’m having half a baby. Fingers crossed for the top half!

I can't finish anything, so I think I'm in the same boat. But I'll take the right half.

Ignore these guise, OP!
