I had a u/s this week where the technition asked if I was on fertility. I wasn't, but apparantly my overactive ovary released THREE eggs on their own. The u/s showed only one baby dated at six weeks. My question is this: Is it possible for there to be more than one baby even though the u/s showed only one? Could one of the other eggs have been fertilized later and therefore not show up at this time or could she just missed one?

I am 13 weeks pregnant with twins and it was done naturally!!

After a miscarriage in January 05, I discovered I'd naturally conceived twins at an 8wk ultrasound a couple of weeks ago (yay!). I was just wondering, when could you ladies feel your uterus above your pubic bone? I'm 10 weeks (just) and can't feel it yet - I thought I would be able to by now. Thanks, take care!

I am not sure if I am having twins yet. We have 3 beautiful girls and were actually doing everything we could to have a boy:-) We ended up having a m/c last month and then immediately tried this month again to conceive. We became preganant again..yeah! I thought I was miscarrying again last week and went in to have an U/S. She said I was 4 weeks and said we would do a quantatative HCG blood test and do another U/S in a week or two. The first blood test revealed a very high blood count and said I could very well be having twins. We are just thrilled! We will find out with another U/S next week. There are twins saturated on my side of the family. We have heard many stories of how it is not at all uncommon to have twins right after a m/c. Our dr. said that you are actually very fertle after having one. Anyway, we will see!!!

I also conceived twins and it was my first pregnancy. There is no history of twins in my family or my husband's. Unfortunately, I miscarried them at 7 weeks. It's now been 2 months and I am still coping with the loss. Is it possible to have twins again?

I am "naturaly" pregnant with twins - my first babys

Just found out yesterday that I am expecting twins. They are in the same placenta from what the technician could see, but there is a membrane between the two. I guess that means that they are going to be identical. Anyway, this was a natural event, and shocked the crap right out of me. I have three other children, all fairly uneventful. I found out that I was pregnant with my fourth the day after I had booked my husband for his vasectemy. SURPRISE! No problem, one more can't hurt. So when I went in for my first ultrasound, I didn't think they would tell me anything I hadn't heard before, but...In the middle if my saying "this is our last" my tech. interupted and said that there might be a bit of a surprise then. I was having twins! I am still in shock, and I don't think that it has completely filtered into me logical thinking just yet. This means five! FIVE! I know a few other ladies who have had fraternal twins, but this was due each time to fertility drugs.

To Lisa, I am same boat as you, I am pregnant with fraternal twins, babies are due 4/13/06 but doc says middle of March, so as of twins being born, my oldest will be 15, then second 11 in February, third 4 in May, all girls so hopefully at least one of these is a boy. Needless to say being pregnant a 4th time was well lets say took me a while to get used to then I find out at 7 weeks, twins!. I am 16 weeks now and look 6 months. Good luck to you.


Kim - October 21st, 2005 12:40 PM

Wow 5 kids...I am six months with fraternal girsl and am questioning whether I will want anymore. These are our first, but am scared we could end up with another set...I know it's too early to make our decision about that but it is still scarey to think about!!!


Sarah - October 23rd, 2005 4:41 PM

Im 20 years old and im preg with faternal twin girls...I believe im havign twins because i am also a faternal twin with my brother..


sarah - October 26th, 2005 3:58 PM

Carrying twins is alot harder then a single birth and much more demanding...I am 37 weeks along now and i feel like they are never gonna come. i cant eat no more cause ill just end up puking it up bc the babies are pushing up on my stomach anyone else having this problem?

I got pregnant with twins naturally, even after I had on ovary removed and my husband has a vasectomy reversal.


mmlpooh@hotmail.com - November 5th, 2005 7:32 PM

HELP! I just found out I'm pregnant with twins and I can't find any info online that seems to satisfy me. I already have FOUR girls,, this was a huge suprise. I have included my email in hopes that someone who has already had twins will write and let me know what to exspect through this pregnany. THanks-Missy

I just finished my 11th week and found out that I am pregnant with fraternel twins and I did not use any drugs.


Kathy S - November 27th, 2005 12:16 AM

I am 20 weeks with twins naturally. they do not run in my or my husbands family. I had a m/c last year that they believe may have been a vanishing twin then blighted ovum. So if that is the case...this would be my second twin pg! ? I am 37 and have been pg 5 times previously...only 3 births though. We can't tell at this point if they are identical or not. We'll have to wait and find out i guess. :-)
