So how many twin pregnancies do we have now?

Jay_Cee · June 2014

It seems like we have an unusually high amount of twin pregnancies on this board. So amazing and exciting!

I don't know yet, but I'm slightly convinced I'm having twins for absolutely no reason at all. Probably because I will go insane if it really happens. I'm mentally preparing myself.

Isn't everyone convinced they are carrying twins at some point? I took my last FRER at 15 dpo, just because. I mean, after all, I had paid for it, right? And the pregnant line was so dark red there was almost no dye left over for the test line. And even though I KNOW that darkness of the line/earliness of the test doesn't really mean anything in terms of twins, my brain still jumped there. :-)

Off the top of my head at least 3 from my checkin group are pregnant with twins.

cls78 · June 2014

Me!! Not gonna lie it is pretty scary, but my husband and I are excited.

jaytee16 · June 2014

We shall (hopefully) see at my u/s tomorrow! I think a lot of the twin pregnancies are from IFers. We transferred two embabies, so there's obviously a higher than normal chance for us to have twins.

thegoodpotato · June 2014

Funny... I always thought I was pregnant with twins on the first two.

But this one I'm 99% sure is a singleton. I think twins are magical, but my expectations for my capacity as a parent right now mean I'm hoping it's not twins.

StephanieLBerg · June 2014

I think theres at least 7 or 8 women on here who have seen twins on their u/s. I won't know if I'm added to that number for another 2 weeks. I do have twins WAY up in my family tree, but it hasn't happened for a a few generations so I'm pretty sure its just one, but the thought of having twins would be amazing. :-) I'd be the first to bring twinning back into family tree! But we shall see in 2 weeks :-)

babybravesfan · June 2014

I think I may be having twins! Just a hunch, but my family has been saying it's time for twins in the family. Plus I got a positive pregnancy test 6 days before my missed period and I had just come off birth control! It would be exciting. But a lot to handle I'm sure.

MissEm15 · June 2014

I'm one of the twinnies!!

elephantsonpatrol · June 2014

Um, so last week at the U/S they found 3 sacs with 4 yolks. That's right, 2 identical with 2 more fraternal. We are freaking out.

@crcostelWed158933 Wow, that's amazing and I can see how you would be freaking out! Congratulations, though!

rookieryan15 · June 2014

Gene wise im up next for twins...but im pretty positive itll be just one this time around

babeRN101 · June 2014

@crcostelWed158933‌ Mind. Blown.

ems0523 · June 2014

@crcostelWed158933‌ WHAT????? I'm freaking out for you

Congratulations!!! I'm a firm believer that you are only given what you can handle!

cls78 · June 2014

@crcostelWed158933‌ How far along are you? Are you under the care of a RE? I bet that was huge surprise for you!

Freaking out is probably and understatement for what I wouldve done.

Time to start shopping for a huge ass van.

That happened to my friend too!! 1st IVF try. Congrats. :-)

elephantsonpatrol · June 2014

Yes I have an RE, and I think we are taking it one day at a time. In all seriousness, 4 may not be safe for me or the babies. Some hard choices may lie ahead.

ambmama · June 2014

@crcostelWed158933 Congrats! Best wishes that all stay healthy and no hard decisions have to come!

I think you are right, one day at a time is the only way to go. I'm sure you will see your RE soon, and he/she can help you to puzzle through this incredible and freaky surprise!!

ETA: When is you next appt?

I wish you the best in making those choices. I know what I would do in your situation. Please try not to let friends or family make you feel guilty for whatever you do choose.

cls78 · June 2014

@crcostelWed158933‌ I saw that you are on the if check in here too after I posted my question here. I can honestly say I don't know what I would do in your situation. I wish you all the best on whatever you decide. ((( hugs))) Have you checked out the multiples board here ? I know I saw one poster currently pregnant with triplets.

dreemkin84 · June 2014

Octomom did it! And so can you (with possibly four). Wishing you a healthy pregnancy and babies!

THIS! I hope, hope, hope you don't have to make any difficult decisions, and all your babies turn out beautiful and healthy!

OmSweetOm · June 2014

I saw 1 sac 2 yolks today at my u/s... Only one bean had a heartbeat (I'm exactly 6 weeks).... We will see if little guy #2 comes out of hiding on my follow up in a week!

OmSweetOm · June 2014

Also- no treatments for me so, the possibility was not even remotely in my mind. I did however have an extremely vivid dream the other night that I had twins- 1 boy and 1 girl. But, that obviously won't be possible with identical! (DH in a moment of shock asked if that was possible... Face palm)

kefttsc · June 2014

Twins here too!!! Next appointment for heartbeats in 8 days. Not that I'm counting.

ksgsmu · June 2014

I've got twins baking... Saw the heartbeats last week ... Another scan this week!

Nlavender13 · June 2014

We have two on their way!! I'm so excited! @crcostelWed158933‌ I am hoping that what ever choices you have to make for your family you find peace with them. My best friend started out with 4 and had to make the incredibly hard choice to continue on with only three. I have no clue how she got through that but I know she looks at her three perfect 6 year olds every day and knows she made the best choice for her and their health. Still takes a day every year to remember the one she had to say goodby too. I wish you the best of luck and health through your journey!

Same here!! Scared and excited all at the same time!

cls78 · June 2014

I think we need a weekly multiples check in!

chickyclg · June 2014

I didn't realize we had this many MoMs to be, we do need a check in for the MoMs

... ETA: especially since multiples carry their own pregnancy quirks.

Nlavender13 · June 2014

@OmSweetOm‌ this is so exciting to hear, I had been following your other post and was wondering how your appointment went today. Going from being told that there was nothing their to you are having two, what a roller coaster ride!

XSweetieO0O · June 2014

@OmSweetOm‌ I was thinking about you today so happy they saw a healthy baby and hope you get that second one out of hiding next time. And @crcostelWed158933‌ I am positively mind blown, that's incredible.

Oh my gosh, same here. I got such an early dark BFP, of course the first thing my mind jumps to is twins. Also, there are twins on both mine and DH's side of the family. I feel slightly better knowing that other women convince themselves of twins for no reason too.

OmSweetOm · June 2014

@XSweetieO0O‌ &. @Nlavender13‌ thank you, loves!!! It's been a rollercoaster ride for sure and if this happens, it's doesn't look like I'm getting off anytime soon!!! Lol Who would have thought!!!

Mrs.EvilQueen · June 2014

At 6 weeks we had two sacs, but could only find one heart beat. So we're checking on them again in two weeks to see what develops.

cls78 · June 2014

@sugahcookie01‌ What day is other check ins? Maybe Wed? Does any other MoMs have suggestions?
