Can anyone tell me what they felt like and what symptoms they had at the start of there pregnancy before they knew they was having twins iv tested 2 weeks after ovulation and dark positives come up and a digital come up pregnant . I'm already throwing up feel like absolute dog poop . I got some proper aches in my tummy and back and down my legs.
My period is every 35 days . I'm due on my period this Tuesday and already testing positive strong positives . Twins run in my family unfortunately I was extremely unwell with my twins and lost them due to an infection in my blood I had . I'm really interested to know what other multiple mummies symptoms are or where ??? Be so grateful for your replies x

I’ve been pregnant with twins and singletons and none of the pregnancies really differed in the beginning weeks.

I have twins, the only thing that was really different for me is that I started showing around 6 weeks, enough for me to have to let a few people know. But I also have an older DS so assumed it was just because it was my 2nd pregnancy. It's fair to say I was in a bit of shock at my first scan.

I’m about 2 weeks from having my twins. But early indicators were very dark tests quite early on, my clear blue went to 3+ just days after it said 1-2. I had insane hunger levels and was exhausted from the get go. I’ve not had a smidge of nausea throughout my whole pregnancy though and I did ‘lose’ a lot of my other symptoms like sore boobs and cramps at 8/9 weeks. I wasn’t really showing until about 24 weeks and even now I look pregnant but you’d never know I was carrying 2 at 34 weeks.

I was only sick for a few days then it turned into crazy hunger I literally can't stop eating and I'm downing milk and cheese anything dairy including beef crisp bread smothered in butter and anything sour and I'm only 7 weeks but have a scan on Friday so I'll see but my lines on the test was super dark and I did a digital clear blue and it come up 3+ but I know for a fact o was only just 2 weeks my boobs have doubled in size I already have a bump just so many signs it could be I don't want to look or feel stupid but it's as if I know there is more than one and I'll admit if I'm wrong also I'm absolutely exhausted and I mean exhausted I just not off anywhere it's bizarre iv never been like that and this is my 6th pregnancy also I have a don't give a sssss attitude it's like I don't care about getting fat nothing Iv developed a right attitude god knows why I can't help it x

Are the twins In your family on the female line? Non identical?

There is a strong genetic link there 😊

I was thinking that they where identical twins. They had though all 3 of them had identical twins in so exhausted I'm absolutely pooped . I can't keep my eyes open and iv never had a dairy craving with the other 5 but today I have drank a gallon on milk already and it's only 11.30am and iv eaten left over roast /bubble and squeak hand full of jelly tots 2 peace's of toast one with a slab of cheese the other had cream cheese on it . And iv eaten strawberries and I'm still starving I feel a little sick every now and again but not actually being sick I'm more tired and hungry than anything exhausted x
