Pregnancy Info HOME

Anastacia,

The only way to determine that you're pg with triplets is through an u/s. If you're suspicous, then ask your OB to do an early u/s. Your chances of conceiving multiples only increases if there are FRATERNAL twins or triplets on your MOTHER'S side. The father's side has nothing to do w/it, and identical multiples are not due to hyperovulation, yet an egg splitting. My chances were increased b/c I am a fraternal twin myself and I used clomid. As far as the symptoms -- it's hard to say. Every woman responds to pregnancy differently - for me, the main difference between my singleton and multiple pregnancy was that my morning sickness (or better put: ALL DAY SICKNESS) was extreme. Like vomiting at least twice each day. The other things I experienced were; headaches, cramping, and exhaustion. HTH's!
