Twins - AHHH

Just had first US today, 7 weeks and looks like identical twins.  One is "bumping along nicely" w/ a good strong heart beat; the other is a bit smaller and heart beat not quite as strong.  So we have to go back in two weeks and see if they are both still there... super nervous.  Nervous about having twins, nervous about losing one or both (last two pregnancies ended by 9wks :(  
Anyone else having twins?
I'm going to go google this and probably make myself even more nervous.

  • My EDD based on ovulation isn't until early March, but I also found out today (5w4d) that there are two in there!  So I assume if all goes well I would end up delivering in February.  We were totally stunned when the doctor showed us and didn't say much.  I feel you on how nervous all the googling has made me, and it's only been a day! I know I won't be able to think about anything else until the next appointment...
  • Congratulations! Wishing the best for both of your LOs. 
  • That's so exciting congrats!
  • Congratulations! I'm wishing you all the best with both babies!

  • Congratulations, I have 3 year old b/g twins, I was nervous and scared in the beginning but that's normal.  I know it's hard but try to stay away from google it will scare you even more.  If you have any questions feel free to message me.

  • Congrats!
    Rainbow baby Dean is due 2/17/17!
  • 9 weeks with twins here. Was a huge surprise last week -- and I feel you on the extra nerves (and extra symptoms). The Internet is the worst, and I haven't found any really good sites for twins, which seems odd. Maybe I'm looking in all the wrong places. 

    I go back next week for a check up, two weeks after my last. Will be thinking of you!

  • CONGRATS and happy thoughts!!! I have a chance of twins (fraternal) due to family history. I go tomorrow for my first appt so I should know tomorrow if I am having one or two! I'm just hoping for healthy baby/babies. Happy healthy 9 months!
  • Congrats!!! Sending you good vibes for sticky babies!!!
  • Thank you for the prayers and well wishes.  

    The doctor called back after they looked at the first US in depth- we are having "Mo/Mo twins"... they are in the same placenta, same amniotic sac = no membrane between the twins = high risk.   Only 1% of twins are this type-  (side note- i do NOT like being the reason that all the residents are called in b/c "they only see it in the text books")- also, i googled the odds of healthy delivery.... not great.

    anywhooo... 2nd ultra sound is next week; so we will see if the smaller of the twins is still there.  God works in mysterious ways.  

    Thank you again for all your thoughts!  I never realized how stressful being pregnant with twins is; new respect for all you other moms out there!

  • Congratulations!   My b/g twins are 7.  The multiples board here used to be a great resource.   I don't know if it is now.   Mo/Mo twins do carry extra risk and worry, but I know several sets that are 6-8 now.   

    Good luck with your next ultrasound, and keep us posted.

  • Sending prayers your way. Finding out that there are two in there is incredibly more stressful than I ever gave mamas credit for, I'm with you.

    Good luck with your ultrasound next week! I'm also pregnant with twins (di-di) and have no idea what to expect. Right now I'm just trying to focus on keeping my lunch down, ugh.
