Hello
Hello I'm Anna. I am in the due in March 2010 group at the moment. I am wondering if any of you may have any advice/opinions for me?
I am nearly 11 weeks pregnant with my second baby. However, people keep asking me if I am sure I'm not having twins. Firstly, no i'm not sure as I havent had a scan yet lol But they keep asking me this as i look about 16 weeks pregnant. Also I have been off work for 5 weeks with really severe early pregnancy symptoms. They started at only 4 weeks pregnant and by 6 weeks I just couldnt do anything as I felt so ill. I did suffer quite badly when pregnant with my little girl but this is twice as bad.
Do any of you think its possible that i could be having twins or am I just unfortunate with illness in pregnancy.
Thank you for reading this and hope you are all getting on well with your pregnancies.

K mum to twin boys 4 weeks xx
This is my first pg so I have nothing to compare with but my sickness started at 6 weeks and lasted until 18 weeks (and is now back at 30 weeks unfortunately!)
As for size, I didnt really show at all until 18 weeks, although I lost a lot of weight with sickness. Even now, im not much bigger than a normal pg at my gestation and from behind you wouldnt know I was pg!!
A scan is the only sure fire way. You do tend to show earlier with subsequent pg's. Do you have your scan booked? I mentioned my symptoms to my mw and she felt my tummy at 8 weeks and asked if we were sure it wasnt twins!! We laughed this off as we didnt think this was poss - turns out id twins can happen to anyone and we were one of the lucky few!!
