    Default I'm getting big...

    Ok, I'm about 13 1/2 weeks preggers and I look like I'm almost 5 months!!! Ugh...everyone I see says, "Oh, are you 5 months along?" NO, I'M 3!!! In fact, my daughter is going around saying that I'm growing a baby in my belly and that it's going to be a boy and a girl.

    I saw 3 people this past weekend (who were psychic/clairvoyant) and they inquired as to how the BABIES were doing.

    Now, I had an ultrasound already...and there was 1 heartbeat, 1 baby. I spoke with an OB-GYN this weekend who winked at me and said, "Well, sweetie, I can tell you that in my 42 years in this field, there have been many, many times that the early ultrasounds are wrong."

    THEN, that's on top of last year where I kept having this dream that I had Sagittarius twins who were born in the first 1/2 of December. Well, I'm due December 8 (or thereabout).

    I'm already kind of freaking out because although I would love any # of babies I have...I don't know how I'll deal with TWINS!!!!

    Ok...just needed to get that off my chest.

    I won't find out for sure for another 2 months...and the waiting and guessing just sucks.

    Congratulations! Very happy for you. It's probably just your nerves.

    Eep Venus! I was lucky enough to escape the "Twins Curse" of my family all 4 times. We have two sets on my Mother's side (Both Identical sets, One boys, One girls). And although it doesn't matter in the chances of twins, Dan's Mother is a twin (Fraternal, her twin is Male).

    A girl I know on another message board had to take a trip to the ER earlier in her pregnancy. Her Husband rushed her in after she'd fainted. They went and checked her over and all that happy stuff. Then, they listened to the heartbeat. The Doctor then told her "Don't worry, THEY are doing fine." He had no idea that she didn't know it was twins. She said if she hadn't already been laying down, she would've passed out again. She's having fraternal twins (2 sacs, 2 placentas), so we're all hoping she'll have one of each.. Heh

    See if you can hear any extra things with that heart listener I sent ya. They say you can't use it until 20-21 weeks or so, but I was able to hear the heartbeat earlier than that. You just have to be in a really quiet room and listening for any little noise through the headsets.

    Early Ultrasounds are notorious for missing twins, because the babies are so small and they could be laying side-by-side. So, you never know! LOL

    Eeek. Twins run on both sides of my family. My grandma is a twin and my little brother and sister are twins. Lord have mercy, I'm so scared to get knocked up...

    Twins are very sneaky when it comes to hiding behind each other in the early months. My mom (RN and midwife) says that most moms of twins, if they lay on their back, will have more of a "watermelon" tummy than a "basketball" tummy.

    I heard that twins skip a generation... Is that just an old wives tale?

    Well, My belly is definitely out in front...but my waist is also disappearing (which didn't happen with Makayla...with her, if you saw me from behind, you couldn't tell I was preggers...)

    *sigh*

    I think I need to go lay down. LOL

    Also, I'm getting so damn nauseated. Today I had to go grocery shopping and just LOOKING at the food and thinking of what to cook made me sick. I came home with one bag of groceries and Joe goes, "I thought you went grocery shopping." I told him that if he wanted himself and Makayla to eat, he'd have to do the shopping since the thought of walking into a grocery store was making me sick. heh So, he's off to the store.

    Hope it's just this pregnancy and it's not twins...that just scares me. My grandmother had twins (my dad survived, but the other twin didn't...born early). But, other than that...

    I tried listening with the monitor...all was quiet and I did hear a heart beat on BOTH sides of my belly...but you know, it was faint and I couldn't tell if I was hearing just ONE or if there were two...

    I think I'm going to go lay down.

    After your first pregnancy don't you show quicker and bigger? I'm sure you do. And listening with the monitor can be deceiving because the placenta has a beat also and there are all sorts of noises. Try not to go crazy until your next ultrasound! It must be hard. It's wierd about your dream though.

    I didn't show until my 5th month with my first baby, with the other two I swear as soon as I conceived I was big as a house.

    You tend to show quicker with subsequent pregnancies so I wouldn't panic yet!

    Ok...I feel a little better. With my first pregnancy I didn't show until my 5th month and with this one, I'm wearing the Bella Band and maternity clothes since 2 1/2 months.

    But, thanks, Sirona...I feel better.

    Okay, I gained 110 pounds when I waqs pregnant with my son. They thought I was going to have twins too! I have a few sets of twins in my family, so it was scary to think that it could happen, but I just got huge, I looked 5 months along when I was 3 months along, don't stress it too much!

    My fiancee has twin girls that are five now. Its pretty cool to have twins, but I imagine it was crazy in the beginning! A good friend of mine also had boy/girl twins and never complained about having twins. I don't think it is as awful/hard as I imagine it would be! Then again, in both cases it was their first pregnancy.(and only, lol) If you are having twins, best of luck!!!

    With my second child, I looked pregnant within the first month. However, I ended up gaining less weight than the first time. Your tummy muscles are just more relaxed after having your first child, so you show earlier the second time around.

    Both of my kids came early. Based on the early ultrasounds, they miscalculated both of my due dates. My first son came 2 weeks early, and my second child came 3 weeks early (both were around 7 pounds). So your little peanut may just be starting off small and making the doctor miscalculate the due date.

    Best wishes!

    Venus I was reading up on the net a few weeks back because I wanted to know when I could expect to show (which has started now).. I found a forum and ALL of the women who were on their second or 3rd pregnancy said that they were showing much sooner with the current pregnancy compared to the first, so it is totally normal hun.

    Seraya.
