Chiropractor when preggo.. +TWINS!

hi all! i’m 21 + 1 with twin boys! this pregnancy rough from nausea to exhaustion and now, growing so rapidly my body feels like it’s falling out of alignment. I went to my first chiropractor appointment yesterday and, can’t stop overthinking it since. The neck cracks and shoulder pops felt AMAZING (although the sound was absolutely terrifying). I did a full physical exam before to measure my mobility. When it came to my hips, my left was out of place drastically. I laid on my right and she applied sudden pressure. I laid on my left and same movement. My question, or more anxiety, comes with the force they pop you back into place. I feel like the doctor smooshed my bump on the left side a bit and it left me scared she put too much pressure on twin B. I have an anterior placenta so I felt movement later but can feel twin A ALL DAY LONG. Twin B is always a bit less movement. I’m just scared I guess - what do you think?? Overreacting or.. what is your experience at the chiro like??
