When did you know you were having twins? - Page 2

I found out we are having twins last Wednesday. I got a scan at eight weeks because of previous problems. My partner was joking (even before I got Pregnant) that it would be quads! I lay down for the scan and the midwife stated to laugh and showed us twin a and b!

We found out when I was almost 9 weeks...my doctor usually does an early scan to confirm your due date, and since my cycle has been wacky she really wanted me to have one done. We were so surprised! I wasn't on any fertility meds or anything...but my husband has always said how much he'd love to have twins...and I always told him he was crazy! So when the u/s tech told us there was two in there I looked at my hubby and started laughing, then crying! lol

I found out at 6+2 that we were having twins. She asked me if I was taking fertility meds, and i told her "no! are you crazy? I have an 11month old at hoome". She laughed and kept looking, then she turned the screen to me and asked me what i saw...TWO SACS! I knew right away, and started to cry my eyes out. My hubby then came into the room and saw i was crying, he was worried, then i told him and he said "OH SHI*!!!" and laughed. it was hilarious.

I found out at 6 weeks. I was sent for an early scan after having suffered a m/c last year. The sonographer went really quiet so I automatically thought that something was wrong again. When I asked her, she said that everything was fine but did I have any history of multiple pregnancies in my family. I sat bolt upright and asked 'How many am I having?' - I had visions of sextuplets or something lol. I was so happy when she said we were having twins but scared cos I knew my partner would be freaked out. He couldn't get time off work to attend that scan so I broke the news to him when I got home. He was a little weird about the whole thing at first but now he wouldn't change it for the world - he's a fantastic dad and I don't know what I would have done without him over the past 10 weeks:-)
