re: PREGNANT WITH TWINS? (or more)

Quoting Serenla:" hey guys.... ummm i am wondering about something how soon did you start to show with twins? or feel your uterus?"

I felt my uterus very early, I was showing by ten weeks a nice lump and then I felt them around 12 weeks

Hellooooo Mommies with twins!

I found out on Monday that I'm pregnant with twins! I am dying to hear what other moms have experienced, the birthing stories, whatever you want to share!

awwww yay! Mine are identical. It's so fun!

Quoting 3LittleMonkeys:" awwww yay! Mine are identical. It's so fun!"

I bet it is! There's a set of identical twin boys in my son's class and then another set of identical twin girls in my daughter's daycare- I have no idea how to tell them apart! I'm always asking which one they are. lol I figure parents are usually able to tell them apart, but I'm sure I'd be one of those parents to screw it up a plenty! lol

i have identical girls, and to my SO and me, most days, they barely look related! even tho even my mom and sister can't tell them apart.

congratulations on your twin pregnancy! it's absolutely amazing.
can be a little stressful, definitely felt like more than twice the worry, some days.
but 100% totally worth every minute

This is us too. I've been able to tell them apart from birth just because I could while everyone else was at a loss. I got their hair cut the other day and the lady was the first one ever to tell me they don't look alike! It's crazy! I did paint toes to keep from mixing up for sure cause some sleepless days I really did get confused. Now I just say "hey child"

I do a lot of "Hey child" already with three.. lol

yea, God bless you because you're going to be having a good time with this addition! I've known a few gals from here who've had 3 or so before their twins. Even one mama who had twins, one baby and twins again!

oh my! that's gotta keep things interesting!

Quoting KeriM:" oh my! that's gotta keep things interesting! "

no kidding!! I'm thinking about another baby. SO say's it'll be 3 boys to make things even.

That could be pretty interesting as well! No matter what I wind up with, we're going to be off kilter. I have two boys and 1 girl.. lol

Quoting 3LittleMonkeys:" no kidding!! I'm thinking about another baby. SO say's it'll be 3 boys to make things even."

hey, i actually knew a family who had one girl, really wanted a son, tried for a boy and ended up with TRIPLET girls! you never know...

i want to have another baby, just one more. my SO is a SAHD, and seems like sooner would be better, rather than have him return to work, and then again have the child care issue.
but i just can't face being pregnant again. mine are only 10 mos. i can't even imagine introducing a pregnancy into the mix. it's CRAZY around here as it is.

i just don't know what the best timing would be.
