do you just know?

are you bigger than the average lady in the 1st trimester?

Or do you just find out at your 12 wk scan?

i found out at an emergency scan at approx 7 weeks. My GP had told me i was about to miscarry due to severe stomach/abdomen cramps. My nurse (at GPs) actually thought i was 3 months gone when i was a few weeks, mainly due to symptoms. I grew very big very quickly, at 4/5 months i was the size of a full term lady! I outgrown my maternity clothes quite a few times also.

I thought I was even before I was pregnant. Not kidding..I had had conversations with atleast two people about it, how funny it would be if I had twins next time. I was just coming off of a very early loss..When I went to my first appointment at 9 weeks, I told the midwife that I wanted to hear a heart beat, as I was a bit afraid, and well, to eliminate the possibility of twins..She laughed and said "Let's go see!"..Off to the ultrasound we went, talking about twin births the whole way down the hall..She puts me on the machine, and just about dies! She went to get the real sonographer, to confirm...Sure enough..two in there..My hubby was waiting out in the car with the kids, and so she and the sono lady walked me out to the car..They already knew how many children we had, and wanted to see his reaction..I showed him the pic, and at first, he was worried..But, with a big grin on my face, he looked closer, and saw the A and B on there..He looked with a big surprise and said "There's two??!!!!" oh, we had a good laugh! It's just like the first pregnancy..He wants to go to every appointment, there is so much to learn with these guys!! Sorry this was so long..I just love to tell the story!

ahhh its a lovely story!!!

hehe lovel story

I found out at six weeks - first pregnancy and apparently I am very small for twins and didnt show for a bit but I understand it varys. A good hint is weight gain you tend to gain a lot in first tri I gained about 8lbs xx

so how did you find out at 6 weeks? i have only just told my doc i am pregnant. then cant see midwife till 8 weeks.

just curious how you found out so soon?

I found out at 7 weeks. I had IVF so a 7 week scan is typical to check for heartbeat (s) and to find out how many embryos implanted. It was awfully nice to know early on. I had a feeling though so I wasn't surprised. I didn't show any bigger than a normal singleton until I hit about 4 months and then I started to grow FAST. I was really bloated in the 1st trimester though so I was in maternity clothes by about 8 weeks due to the bloating.

I had an inkling right from the few days after ovulation lol! My husband was also going on about twin boys alot bless him lol. I got alot of pregnancy symptoms very early. Sickness started at 4 weeks on the dot. I just felt there was more than one. We had a private scan at 8 weeks because I was sure it was twins lol ( it was actually triplets!)

Because of my sickness though I have actually lost alot of weight, but I definatly have a bump, and my bbs are unreal lol! xxx

I found out at my dating scan, about 10weeks
Awwwww I remember that day fondly!

I found out at 6 weeks. Saw their little heart beats on the scan.
