Important Questions

[Taurean]

I got quite a strong positive immediately and I was only 4 weeks and 1 day pregnant and the bloodtest that same day actually revealed that my HCG levels were actually quite low. I'm not convinced strong positives mean anything really as the test brand, the concentration of urine, etc can all have an effect. A positive is a positive in my view

Don't worry about the binge drinking - that's a common concern. It's extremely unlikely any damage has been done. There would be an awful lot of children with FAS if drinking in very early pregnancy (ie before you know you're pregnant) had an affect on bubs! I'm sure you've stopped drinking now you know you're pregnant though.

No point worrying about twins just yet either. The doctor should be able to tell at your first scan if there is more than one in there. Also, identical twins are not hereditary, it's fraternal twins that are. Idential twins are rarer as it's when one fertilised egg splits into two. Fraternal are when two sperms fertilise two eggs.

Good luck with everything. I hope you have a wonderful pregnany!
