I am so scared that I am going to have twins again. I know it sound horrible, but I really don't want to have twins again. I really want to have ONE baby and be able to enjoy it. With the twins I enjoyed it but I was so busy and tired I couldn''t enjoy it like I wanted to.
I am going in to the DR. on Friday, she said she would do an ultrasound then. I will be 5 weeks. Do you think that is too soon to tell if I am having twins? I found out at 7 weeks with the girls. But I know how much a difference a week can make in a pregnancy.
TIA

Re: Getting scared
This is true. ?And my understanding is that most twins are in different sacs, so it should hopefully be visible that early. ?GL!
I forgot to tell you when I had this convo with my OB, we had talked about the chances of having multiples again. At the time the chances were about 1-2%, but she said that could go up as you get older. My boys are identical, too even though they were in 2 separate sacs. Again, don't worry too, too much!
I had no idea the percentage is so low. That makes me feel better. Of course if we had twins again I would be happy. I just really want to experience a singelton pregnancy. I want to be able to breastfeed, I want to be able to just sit and hold my baby. Things I couldn't do with the girls.
Thanks again!
You might be able to see if there are 2 sacs...but you wouldnt be able to rule out twins...
Its ok to be scared of that. One of my bros had frat. twins as their 2nd and 3rd and wanted a 4th but were too scared to try. So my guess is you are totally in the norm there!
