Those of you with twins, did you get morning sickness very early on?

yes

curlywurlycremeegg · 09/12/2008 10:12

I have a suspicion that I may have two on the way. Have already had one twin pregnancy but has a missed miscarriage of one of the twins at 12 weeks. I haven't had a dating scan but am having an anomoly scan on 29th Dec. Am bracing myself

curlywurlycremeegg · 09/12/2008 10:12

Oh and with the twin preg I had horrific m/s to the point where I was seeing a CPN as I felt suicidal

curlyredhead · 09/12/2008 10:13

v early - nauseous on CD27 progressing to throwing up by 5 weeks.

pophas2boybeans · 09/12/2008 11:34

no, none at all with mine (I'm having boys) but my sister had awful morning sickness with hers. (Shes having one of each).

ChopsTheDuck · 09/12/2008 11:47

Momma!!

I'm great thanks, I've been about here and there, but what with this and that I jsut cannot keep up with that thread!

I thought of you at the weekend, when I corrupted your spicy chicken stew recipe to make game stew!

idobelieveinsanta · 09/12/2008 18:31

Nope...not a minute of it with either set......tiredness however...ohhhh yessss [nods like the churchill dog]

hattyyellow · 09/12/2008 18:37

Nope, very little morning sickness with my twins - far worse with my singleton pregnancy! Tiredness was earth shattering with the twins though..

magnummum · 10/12/2008 07:13

Yes, early and much worse than singleton pregnancy, as was the tiredness. Was so convinced something wasn't right as it all felt so different was really relieved to find out it was twins rather than anything else

throckenholt · 10/12/2008 07:29

no - not early - but it was bad - so much so that I decided I would never had kids again even if I lost this one (before I knew it was twins). It didn't last past 12 weeks I don't think.

throckenholt · 10/12/2008 07:32

tiredness however - that was much worse with my first (singleton ) -I used to lock the office door at work and go to sleep on the floor for an hour .

I guess the rule is you can't tell by symptoms - they vary from person to person.

TeaSleepInASproutFartHaze · 10/12/2008 10:19

I had some nausea from weeks 8-16 but no vomitting. Crippling tiredness by 3pm. I had B/G twins.

buti chucked my effing ring up daily bile bile bile

duckyfuzz · 10/12/2008 20:09

no morning sickness at all here

MagdaMagyarMadam · 10/12/2008 20:24

no m/s at all, although my sense of smell became very acute and warped. I thought I was surrounded by dogpoo - very weird!

Lazycow · 10/12/2008 20:40

No personal experience but the 3 women I know with twins (all of whom had at least one other child) all complained that they were more sick for longer in the twin pregnancy than in their other ones.

Geepers · 10/12/2008 20:42

I had worse sickness with the twins than with my singleton pregnancies. It started about 7 weeks and was actually physically throwing up for a few weeks, which never happened for me when just having one baby.

ScummyMummy · 10/12/2008 20:43

not sure if it was early but once started was v sick till about 5 months in
