Q: Twins..... ???

My husband and I found out we were expecting. We were very excited as this is our 5th and final pregnancy.

I am experiencing huge differences with this pregnancy compared to my last 4. I know each pregnancy is different, however I have a feeling the reason is because there is more than one baby in my belly.

Symptoms so far:
1. I am only 11 weeks and my belly is the same as it was at 20+ weeks with my last 4 pregnancies.
2. M/S is out of control.
3. Boobs are huge and extremely sensitive.
4. I can't stand the sight of certain meats (love meat!)
5. My exhaustion level is ridiculous. I can't fold a load of laundry without being so tired and wanting to take a nap. Mind you I am only 5'1 and 98lbs post baby.

There are many more symptoms. I have about 4 more weeks before I see my OB so the wait is killing me. Are there any mommies out there who had multiples or who are expecting multiples?

You can't go by symptoms to judge on how many babies you are carrying. With my first, I had such severe morning sickness, I lost 30 lbs & have permant tooth damage from the round the clock vomiting. With my current pregnancy, I was so bloated I was in maternity pants by 7 wks & slept the first trimester away (those sptoms ultimately passed in the 2nd trimester). Both pregnancies were just one baby. No two pregnancies are the same, so try not & compare. Ultrasound will confirm one way or the other!

I haven't used Clomid BUT..
this is my second pregnancy and the beginning of it was INSANE!
I was bloated beyond belief, so tired I couldn't keep my head up.. literally and couldn't STAND the sight or smell of coffee (had my morning cup every day with my first)..
Sorry I really don't know about the twins thing but I wanted to tell you that symptoms are way more exaggerated with this pregnancy.. and I am definitely expecting just one!

Good luck!
