When did you find out you were having multiples?

Mama-Bear · April 2009

So I know the chances are low, but b/c of a short LP my OB put me on Clomid this month. Of course I'd prefer to have just 1 healthy baby at a time, but have stopped freaking out so much at the thought of multiples. When I was pg with DS (so far our only) we could see him and his HB at 6w 1d. A friend of mine had an u/s around 4w 3d or about and couldn't see anything (they said it was too early). So this got very long and winded, but when did you find out? TIA.

My MIL works at a Ob/Gyn office so she said we could come in to have a quick ultrasound to see the baby for fun...I was about 7 weeks along...to our surprise there was what looked like 2 babies...My appointment with my OB wasn't until I was about 10 weeks along...So for that 3 weeks I was still kind of in denial...But at 10 weeks it was very obvious that we were having twins.

We had our first u/s at 10 weeks. We found out then. Good luck.

I was on clomid too. We had our first u/s at 6w2d and only saw one baby. In my 11th week we went back and there were two.

7w4d for us. Still in shock

6w 1d, I was seeing a RE

4w is too early to do an US. 5w is the earliest my RE will do one- and that is when you should be able to see a sac and sometimes a yolk sac and fetal pole.

For me- at our 5w US we saw 2 sacs.... at 6w we saw the fetal poles and heartbeats.

17+ weeks but there was no need for an u/s prior to that.

FaeryStarGazer · April 2009

6w also, but I wouldn't have found out until 9w if I hadn't been in the emergency room.

bclspeer · April 2009

At 6 wk u/s we knew we were pregnant for sure with one and even saw the heartbeat. At that same u/s, the doc saw another sac but was not sure that it would make it....sure enough at a 7 wk u/s I was told that YES, you are having twins!!!! Very exciting news!!!!! Good luck!

I have trouble sustaining pg due to a progesterone drop, so when I got a BFP from POAS I called the OB right away. They ordered my bloodwork and from that, assumed that I was about 6-7 weeks pg; my first u/s was scheduled for a week and a half later, to be around 8 weeks, and I was put on Prometrium right away. (None of the math made sense to me b/c I knew when they were conceived, on vacation, but they were the docs so I did what they said.) At that first u/s the tech made the comment that we were very early along, 5 - 5 1/2 weeks (which sounded more reasonable to me, math wise) and said something about twins b/c there was 2 sacs. It wasn't 'till we saw the doc to discuss the u/s results that we were told it was triplets. They were all there but not all the HBs were strong. At 8 weeks I went back for another u/s and all three of them were there and growing and had strong HBs.

I found out at 10 weeks. It was my regular ob appointment & we heard 1 heartbeat by my uterus was measuring big. So I had an ultrasound to rule out a fibroid & to do an accurate dating. Well, it turned out that my uterus was measuring big because there are 2 babies in there! What shock that was.
