My mother-in-law keeps saying I might be carrying twins because of how my stomach looks already. How can I really identify if it's a twin pregnancy? Are there any specific early signs or tests for it?
My grandmother said having severe morning sickness and a rapidly growing belly means twins, but my doctor explained that only an ultrasound scan can confirm it. Trust your doctor's scan report more than old wives' tales.
Since we did IVF, we were closely monitored from day one. I had very high hormone levels, but we only knew it was twins during our first ultrasound at 6 weeks.
I used pregnancy apps to track my symptoms, and my unusually high hCG levels and intense morning sickness made me suspicious. But honestly, the only real way to identify twins is through an early ultrasound scan!
Oh, the exhaustion with twins is on another level! I felt twice as tired in my first trimester, but seeing those two little heartbeats on the scan screen made me cry with joy.
