twins!!!!! how exciting!!! We'll see if I'll be joining you w/ that since the psychic I went to last night said I was having twins! Chat Icon My next sono is Thursday so we'll see what they say...it would be exciting and nerve wracking at the same time if it comes true! As long as he/she/they (!) are healthy I will be happy no matter what!

This is also my secondary name, I decided to create this one after miscarrying when I wanted to jump back into TTC.....although it's been so long since I used my regular name on here no one will even know who I am when I do "come out" Chat Icon Chat Icon

added! just update if it changes Chat Icon

Thank god, no nausea yet....I'm just feeling very tired, and having a lot of difficulty sleeping! I've been waking up at least 2-3 times per night, which is so not like me! Having occasional pains on my left side, but that's probably b/c I have a huge cyst (4cm!)....I started a little bit of spotting again, but I am seriously hoping it's related to the cyst or any other "normal" activity!

I think they can tell by the eggs. If there are 2 originally it's fraternal twins but if it's one that split into 2 it's identical twins. I don't know how they can tell that by looking at the eggs, maybe placement in the uterus?

I *think* my best friend (who's a nurse) had told me that if they're identical they split later on? So technically how far along were you when they told you it was twins? It is amazing what they can tell on a sonogram!! I cannot imagine living like our parents did and not knowing you had twins until you gave birth!!

I thought when i went for my sono (at 6 weeks), i was told i def do not have twins (either identical, or fraternal). They said they'd be able to tell at that point.

Frankly, i'm surprised they can tell ANYTHING from those sonos! To me, it looked like a small squiggle inside a large round, black blob Chat Icon

no kidding!


Off topic, anybody else hating the fact that we have to go to a bazillion doctor appointments? Every 4 weeks feels like a ton, especially for me who only goes to doctors when something is wrong (which, thankfully, is rare)

Hmm, my appointments are further apart than that. Well at least I think they are. I don't seem to find out the next step until the end I schedule my next appt. Out of curiosity, how many sonograms does your obgyn do?

i think she said there are 3 of them. the first one at about 6 weeks, then the anatomy one, and one towards the end of the pregnancy.

I will also be doing one at 12 weeks to scan for any abnormalities (downs syndrome, etc) - I forget what it's called. That's done at the hospital though, not by my ob.

The twins were in the same sack - meaning they are monozygote and if they are in 2 diff sacks, they are fraternal. If they are from the same egg and split they share the same chromoosone make up.

A twin is one of two offspring produced in the same pregnancy.[1] Twins can either be monozygotic ("identical"), meaning that they develop from one zygote that splits and forms two embryos, or dizygotic ("fraternal") because they develop from two separate eggs that are fertilized by two separate sperm.
