I'm curious about the parents who have twins or have had twins.

What were the symptoms and little things hihi?

I'm just a few weeks pregnant, very early on, but everything in me says there are two and no idea why haha!

And well, there has to be something to do while waiting, right? hihi.

    Hey,
    I have a twin who's just 1 year old. I tested with Clearblue back then and it already said I was 2-3 weeks pregnant. If you're having twins, you produce twice as much hCG. I was also twice as nauseous haha! And I had cramps early on in the pregnancy due to the growth of the uterus.
    It's funny that you have that feeling. I had it too and even told different people about it, while I still didn't know. We found out at 7 weeks during the first ultrasound. When do you have your first ultrasound?

    Oh wow, haha!
    And it's so nice that you replied!
    My tests were 3 and 2 days before my due date and already super positive. I actually didn't use Clearblue.
    I'm not really feeling nauseous yet, but I do have cramps and a little baby bump already (not sure if that's normal).

    I already have an ultrasound tomorrow because of previous miscarriages. So I'll be at 5 weeks, which means there's a good chance they won't see much yet. So I'll go back in 3 weeks for another scan. It's a bit nerve-wracking, haha, and I'm really curious.
    As silly as it sounds, it's just been on my mind, haha!

    I'm now 22 weeks pregnant with twins and didn't have any early pregnancy symptoms at all. My pregnancy tests didn't react at all to my morning urine. So I did the tests in the afternoon, and those were positive. I have noticed that I have more stomach pain than with my first pregnancy; this is partly because your uterus grows much harder. Good luck with your ultrasound.

    Well, the ultrasound looked good for now, I could see a gestational sac and it was nicely positioned high in the uterus. So I'm indeed 4/5 weeks pregnant now.
    Whether there were two was still not visible or findable, so we'll have to wait a bit more hihi.

    I'm getting the next ultrasound on February 11th!

    Hugs, that could certainly be too!
    Do you happen to drink more in the evening than during the day, like me? Regarding the tests.
    And exciting and so lovely, congratulations!

    That's great that they saw a gestational sac. Hopefully, the 3 weeks will pass quickly for you. Exciting!
