Ovulation/Implantation Spotting & Twins

I have been reading up on these two subjects this time around.  I have never had mid-cycle bleeding or spotting during a regular cycle.  The only time I ever did was when I had an ectopic but it was pretty obvious that go around that something was off.  This cycle I had one day mid cycle, around CD 14, where I had light pink discharge for 1 day.  Then about 6 days later I had 1 day of light pink discharge again.  None since then either.     

Anyways, since I am considered "advanced maternal age" at 35, I have this overwelming feeling it could be twins.  My best friend got pregnant with twins at 37.  What I read is that the older you get, the higher your chances are for twins.  And if you have spotting it could either mean you released more than one egg or you could have implanted more than one egg.  

Kind of freaks me out a bit :-)  Especially with the really heavy feeling I have in my uterus, I keep thinking twins.  Just a feeling of course.  Ultrasound scheduled for the 20th!    

What are your thoughts on this subject??  Anyone else feel like it could be multiples for them too?

Re: Ovulation/Implantation Spotting & Twins

  • I didn't have the spotting but my levels are high and in also suspect twins. This pregnancy is SO different than my others. I have no family history of twins, and I'm not even over 30, so my chance is very slim. The crazy part of me would like twins and the rational part of me is freaked out by the thought. Let us know how your ultrasound goes!

  • Erin, I am in the a similar situation - 35 and wondering if it's twins? I am way more exhausted than I was with baby #1, and symptoms in general started way earlier (before I even took a pregnancy test!), and my clothes are already getting pretty tight. My family was joking with my DH before we even found out that we were pregnant that we would have twins, and he freaked out! Poor guy! Only time will tell. Don't see my doc until next week, so no point in worry about it until then, I certainly haven't mentioned it to my DH!

  • I don't have an overwhelming feeling but I am terrified about it being twins lol! I am 40 and I had some light pink discharge on Sunday and thought I was just getting ready to start but nope! Not sure what the light pink discharge was since I am sure it wasn't implantation bleeding. This will be my 3rd over 35 so no multiples bc of age yet ;)

    I'm 32 and my 5 week u/s showed twins which I totally wasn't expecting. I started reading up on twins afterwards and read it happens the older we get. Twins actually run in my husband's family. I'm not sure what to think is it my age or hereditary. A friend had twins 9 months ago and we're the same age. My brothers gf is pregnant and she's 35 she having a girl and she has 3 children no multiples. I didn't have a heavy feeling down there. I did spot close to my alleged period it didn't come and 7 days after my missed period I had a positive reading.

    Glad I am not alone. First baby for us, I am 36. I too am experiencing a strange feeling of twins. I had no spotting just cramping. I also have a strange gift of sensing when my friends/coworkers are expecting, sometimes before they even know. Time will tell! :-S
  • All this twin talk is making me nervous. Twins run in both my family and my husbands. My husband is actually a twin and I have a brother and sister who are twins. We do already have one son so we will see. My appt. Is next week.

  • Was on clomid for two cycles no fertility issues & me and partners all pre conception tests normal.
    both cycles dis not conceive , cycle 1 missed the timing due to clomid later ovulation just did 5 sticks & missed real surge .. something that happened tyc cycle 2 got high +opk on cd 13/14 and then again 4 days later even higher on cd 18 . Previous cycle had stopped 1 day after positive when got negative.


    this cycle due to religious festival during expected feetile window , hence  choose to no bd .
    but got positive opk on cd 12 1.08 on premom. So 
    did not do crazy BD like last times, infact just did once on CD 12 night.
    again negative opk two more days untill super positive 5.33 peak on CD 15 !

    coming back to the topic i had abundant ewcm on cd 12 and some more but lesser qty ewcm on 13 but had a sudden excess watery cm on cd 13 night , like tmi felt leaking abruptly.

    cd 14 not much cm very scarce ewcm .

    cd 15 opks positive again in noon high
    and at night felt same leak feeling , again heavy amounts of watery + ewcm but this time it had a neon / orange kind bead shape speck , a tiny orange redish dot wrapped up in cm/ tissue 😂 looked like it (the mini mustard size ball )had a trail of tissue tail .

    next 2 hours again 2 incidences of watery cm
    One had another larger but blood red color spotting wrapped in tissue and ewcm kind glob along with watery leak + excess ewcm .

    turned 35 this month & have never everything experienced something like this ! 

    Absolutely amazed how body is reacting.

    its 3 days since BD , hope hubbys swimmers hold on strong the whole 5/6 days and catch the egg/eggs.

    the purpose of trying clomid was expecting twins but both cycles gave me clomis crazies and had emotional roller coaster to depression and mood swings level 100! 

    This cycle without clomid and ovulation spotting and this thread, ahh twins on wish list.

    and as they say god is in control.

    i say goddess is the supreme! Her festivities might just become the reason , once bd  3/4 days before o
    And successful twins !

    i will update in next 18/20 days .

    but very positive and confident this cycle.
    May goddess bless us with our twins
