Due June 12....twins???

Hey all, just got my bfp yesterday!! 3wks and 5 days according to my last period, but I took a test because I have been soooo sick feeling. This will be my second baby, third pregnancy. My last two pregnancies I hardly had any morning sickness, slightly queasy after 6 weeks but that was really it. My test was even very dark compared to tests I have taken in the past and soo much earlier. Twins don't run in my family but I can't believe how I'm feeling. Anyone else have twins or feeling like they're having twins??

  • You could be a little farther along that you think. Maybe you ovulated early? Pregnancy tests and symptoms don't indicate twins. Congrats on the BFP though!

    Every pregnancy is different. Why do people always jump so quickly to 'OMGtwins????' 


    Only an ultrasound could tell you. Good luck with your pregnancy.

    Lots of testing, all clear with the exception of compound heterozygous for the MTHFR mutation. 

    Cycle 1: Femara, trigger shot, Bravelle added due to slow response = BFN
    Cycle 2: Cancelled due to two cysts =(
    Cycle 3: Femara, Bravelle, trigger shot and IUI = BFP then loss #3
    Cycle 4: Femara, Follistim, trigger shot and IUI = BFP!  EDD: 6/7/14

  • It is actually a bit of an old wives' tale (or urban legend, take your pick) that twins "run in the family" - they don't.  The only way they would run in the family is if there is a history of hyper ovulation - when it is a family trait that your body sends out more than one egg in any given cycle.  That would be for fraternal twins.  Identical twins is not hereditary.

    All of that being said, I'm with PP - you very likely just ovulated earlier than normal, so you're further along than the EDD given with your LMP.  Just hang in there until you have an us - that's the only way you'll know.  For now, you're just lucky with extra strong symptoms.

  • Mine was the same way. I got a positive on a clear blue digital 7 days before my expected period. And I know the exact day I ovulated

  • I hear ya, this pregnancy has been different in that I have felt so obviously pregnant literally from O-week on. Now, maybe because it's my third and not only is this not my first rodeo but I am better in tune with my body...but also there is something in my gut saying it might be twins. Also DS keeps saying he wants "two babies, 1 boy 1 girl" and he predicted DD...I'm def being superstitious and maybe it's wishful thinking. ;)

  • :) I was convinced my last pregnancy was twins. Even my Doc thought I was measuring big... So I got an early ultrasound at 10 weeks!... You could always push for one lol!

    Yes! This. Lol would LOVE to have 3 kiddos but I'm gonna have a hard time convincing DH to go along with it. I'd be ok if I got #2 and #3 in on fell swoop! :D
