Hi there, I am just 13 weeks gone. My dates are right but I have been in maternity clothes for last three weeks.
Had morning sickness, fatigue etc before even missed period!
Pregnancy test went dark purple/black.
This is my second my pregnancy and compared to the first I look about 20 weeks.
I have to wait another two weeks for my scan, am I having twins?
thanks

Hi! It's a possibility! But I'm on second pregnancy and I got a lot bigger earlier on this time as well. My pregnancy test was a strong positive too and my symptoms were quite obvious, so not sure whether you might be having twins or not. Would you like twins? XXX

it's always possible, this is my third and symptons are a lot worse than the other 2 and have been in mat clothes since 8 weeks, but things have slowed down a bit now.

I got a very dark line on a pregnancy test 5 days before my period was even due, and terrible sickness too, but I'm not having twins. However I didn't show until about 15 weeks, so who knows? Good luck xxx

I experienced worse symtoms this time round and have had a "bump" since about 8wks. Think this was mainly due to bloating, but i suppose only a scan will tell you for certain. I was really scared it was twins as they run in both my family and OH family, ahhh! Anyway im not having twins at least they wernt detected at 12wk scan, ha ha ha. Got 20wk scan tmoz so will be able to make sure, lol Kerry xxx

It would definitely be hard work. I've got a two year old and I'm 38+5 wks pregnant and I'm completely worn out! I don't think I could cope with twins, but it would be quite nice to have more children with less pregnancies to go through! XXX

Hi, Im pregnant with my second child and i was in maternity wear from about 6/7weeks this time it is common that you show alot earlier and tend to get alot bigger with subsequant pregancies im 30weeks today and im about the same size now as i was at full term plus 12days when i had my daughter she was only small at 5lb14oz 12 days late but this baby is actually measuring smaller at this stage than my daughter was its more fluid the one good part about it is i get to go for a growth scan every 2weeks to keep an eye on things i have been reassured there is nothing to worry about hope ive helped u out x

Hi. I'm having twins and was hardly showing at all at my 12 week scan - so we got a bit of a shock! I was worried she was going to say I wasn't pregnant, wasn't expecting 2 little heads on the screen! (lovely though)
I only started getting bigger towards the end - people still seem suprised when I say there's 2 of them in there (I'm 30 wks). It's my 1st pregnancy. I also didn't have any increased symptoms like worse morning sickness but that can be a sign.
How old are you? Incidence of twins does go up with age apparently, I'm 38.
