Twins run in my family on my mom's side so im a bit curious. Just got my positive test and havent done a scan yet. At what week can the scan actually show if its twins?
Pretty early actually, the first scan in the 6-8 week range usually picks it up. Symptoms like extra nausea arent reliable proof. If twins run in ur family, mention it so they look carefully on the scan.
Mine showed up on the very first ultrasound around 6-7 weeks, two little sacs and the sonographer's face said it all haha. So it can be detected quite early on a scan. Get ready for double everything if it's twins!
Oh I was wondering the same since twins run in my hubby's family. So the first ultrasound can tell? That's good to know, my dating scan is coming up soon, will keep eyes open for two!
My doctor said an early ultrasound around 6 to 8 weeks can usually show two sacs or two heartbeats. Sometimes high hCG levels give a hint earlier too. So a dating scan is the reliable way to confirm twins.
