I am at 11 weeks with twins, and can tell you that I had overwhelming tiredness and Morning sickness like you wouldn't believe!! With my first born, I had no symptoms what so ever and bloomed all the way through, but with these two in my belly, I have been nothing but sick! I have been totally off my food, and my mouth felt like I'd been sucking a duracell battery, I totally went off tea and coffee and drank water like a fish.
The symptoms are starting to ease now thank goodness. When I had my first visit to the doctor, she gave me another preg test and she said it was showing verrry strongly that I was pregga's. So I'm guessing you get a double dose of preg hormones with twins.
Good luck with your first scan, and let me know if it's twinnys!
Thanks Kezzabird
And congrats on your twin pg! Have you had a history of twins in your family?
I hear the statistics raise when the women are older also...
Glad to hear that your m/s is easing, m/s is not fun
I'll keep you posted!
Take care.
Well I am 36 so I guess I am pretty old for having kids. But there are about 4 sets of twins on my other half's mums side of the family. So I guess with those in mind it was inevitable
When I was pregnant with my twins I was really sick. from about 4 weeks until about 18 weeks, but because I was so sick I barely ate anything. It is funny but before I fell pregnant with the twins I always had this feeling in my heart that I would one day have twins, I don't know why. Sounds a little silly but I guess it was just meant to be.
Other than the sickness I started to show really early. I had a belly by 9 weeks
Hi,
I was soooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo sick that I was rushed to hospital. I lost 7kg in 7 days I could'nt keep anything down and the toilet bowl was my best friend. That's how I found out that I was having twins. We couldn't believe it as this made 5 children.
HI! i am currently 15 weeks with twins and from about week 6, i was super sick every day, i could barely get out of bed and i would just snooze all day and all night. this was till a few weeks ago, i still get the odd queasiness and random vomiting, but my tiredness is still going strong, yet i am lucky if i can sleep through the night, if the crazy dreams dont freak me out! i was showing at about 9-10 weeks and im massive now!
the funny thing is this is my first pregnancy, and i had always hoped i could have twins, and pretty much from the beginning i had a feeling i was having them. fraternal twins run in both my mothers and my partners fathers side, but i am lucky to be having identicals! my partner and i feel like we won the lottery ( when the panic doesnt set in!)!!
does the tiredness ever stop? and did any of you twin mums suffer lots of cramping like period pain?? i get it every day since about 4 weeks!!
