Twins?

Thoughts and experiences please -
10wks preg with second. Much more severe morning sickness, tiredness, sore boobs etc. Pushed midwife to check for heartbeat (had some spotting at 6 weeks) and she was surprised to find one easily at 10 weeks. Said I was measuring 14 weeks. Showing much more than at this stage with first.
Twins?!!!

Are you definitely 10 weeks? Could you be further on than this?

I don't think you would find hb easier at 10wks because it is twins. This could be inaccurate dates???

BUT twin pregs normally measure 4-6wks ahead which could fit with measurements???

Second pregnancies do show quicker than first (apprently - I didn't but then I had DTDs first then DD3 so was disappointed by rate of expansion 2nd time)

Positive about dates. Also feeling movement?! I know second pregnancies show earlier, but do you also measure larger? I have scan next week, so will soon find out!
