Chance of twins?

BaugherMommy · October 2015

So this is my second pregnancy and I am 6 weeks and 3 days pregnant. I am.... HUGE. People can tell I'm pregnant by just looking at me. I look like I'm about 5 months honestly, and everyone keeps calling the baby 'them'. I found out I was pregnant at 3 weeks which apparently is 'impossible' .

Also, I am not a tiny chick, nor a curvy chick I'm a normal BMI. With my first baby (that I miscarried at 9 weeks) I didn't show at all. Is this maybe because of the fact I've been pregnant before?

This post is so out of whack lol, basically I want to hear people's thoughts on if they think they may be carrying twins or if they have had twins

My first ultrasound is the 5th so maybe I'm further than they think.

(I'm the one on the far right)

Whoa that's def. a bump! I have no experience and I'm guessing people with experience will say you are just bloated. But I'm 6 weeks and 2 days and don't have that much bloat. Or a bump. Good luck either way!

It could just be bloat, a lot of people have been commenting on how they are super bloated around 5 or 6 weeks, enough to the point that they look like they've got a bump.

With the sensitivity of new tests, it's possible to find out that you're pregnant around 3 weeks, I found out when I was 3w3d with a cheap test I got on amazon (it was super super faint but it was clearly something), confirmed the next day with a FRER.

You also could have ovulated earlier than you thought, making your further along that you expect. In the end, there's only 1 way to tell if you've got 2 in there and that's an ultrasound.

I have almost two year old twins after a singleton. I found out I was carrying twins at 6 weeks pregnant. I had no symptoms that were different, and really didn't get bigger until about 16 weeks. A lot of mamas get very bloated-I did, too, both times. I looked 5 months along from the bloat-lol. Good luck at your scan-that's the only way to know for sure.

I just found out I'm pregnant with twins! I'm a little under 8 weeks and I am not showing yet. You can always see if you doctor can take you a little early!

The only way to tell for sure is an ultrasound. Good luck!

I'm 5 weeks tomorrow, and I feel like I'm showing (second time mom). I know it's bloating though. But geez, this bloat is huge! I broke out a pair of maternity pants already because my elastic around the button trick for my pants is not working any more!

I'm 7.5 weeks and look the exact same as you. I can tell its blump bc it's squishy unlike a real bump, but people are def giving me the "you're preg and not telling people" eye. I am running out of baggy clothing to wear!

It could be that you have diastasis recti after your first which is causing you to look pregnant faster this time around? or twins, or bloat.....or a combo of all three :-p

Wow! I'm 4w2d and I already feel like I'm showing too, but I know it's a "blump". Everybody is different but I'd be curious to see if you're farther along or if it's 2!!!!!!! Good luck and congrats!!!!!!
