Moms with Twinsdy Having

When I was pregnant with my twins, I was starting to feel pretty miserable at around 5 weeks. All of the symptoms I had with my first two singletons were extremely exaggerated with my twin pregnancy. I was also showing so early, that by the time it was confirmed by ultrasound, I pretty much already knew I was having twins. Everybody is different, though. You won't know until you get an ultrasound, so try not to stress too much, and get yourself to the doc! :-)

Everyone is different. I never had one single craving throughout my entire pregnancy. In fact it was just the opposite. The thought of eating at all made me ill.

Yes you can have cravings already.
And yes you can start showing already.
When I was pregnant the 2nd time, I started to show already.
At 5 weeks, my Doc would do a vaginal sonogram in office. And at that time I saw the heartbeat and the "baby"/gestational sac etc. which looks like a tiny gummy bear.

When does your Doc do a vaginal sonogram? It is also called a transvaginal ultrasound. If your Doctor does this, then he/she could tell if there are one or two sacs.

Everyone is different - some start with cravings immediately; others not till much later.

But, as for being nervous and stressed - unless you intend to do something "drastic" if it really is twins (which I hope you're not thinking in that direction!) - I would relax and enjoy the pregnancy. It is in God's hands!!

Good luck!!! and p.s. - please use some punctuation next time!! lol!!!

Not sure personally, my husband's been the one with the cravings. All I've gotten is the ability to sleep 18 hours a day. Now, if only my 5 year old would let me, bliss. :)

You should be scheduled for an ultrasound soon, they should be able to see both babies...if there is two.

Good luck.

It doesn't matter if he's a twin, it has nothing to do with you having twins. I never had cravings with any of my pregnancies. With my twins, it was my first. I was in maternity pants at 7 weeks, clearly showing by 8, and EXHAUSTED to no end. I was lethargic and spent every evening zoning on the couch. Whenever we went out, I napped on couches or wherever I could lay. The symptoms you'd have would be exaggerated, not necessarily occur earlier. Congrats!
