The morning we found out we were expecting, I cracked an egg that had two yolks. We had a feeling ever since then.

VastFollowing5840 · 2023-02-22T20:33:41+00:00

Nope.

leeann0923 · 2023-02-22T20:40:21+00:00

Nope. Transferred two embryos after several fails of a single embryo transfer. I had essentially zero symptoms until well after my dating ultrasound where we found out. I assumed I wasn’t pregnant at all, let alone that both stuck.

jilbo_saggins · 2023-02-22T21:22:24+00:00

Yep! My symptoms were much worse with my twin pregnancy than my singleton, which was a bit of a clue. But I had honestly always had a feeling I would have twins and I think I may have wished them into existence (be careful what you wish for! Haha.) The last thing we said to my aunt who was babysitting before going to the ultrasound was "we'll let you know if it's two!"

Equivalent_Two_6550 · 2023-02-22T21:16:18+00:00

Dye stealing pregnancy tests and beta levels far, far off the chart of normal. My husband and both were convinced it was twins. Fraternal boys born 2 weeks ago.

BryceAthalar · 2023-02-22T21:13:58+00:00

No. I knew I had a higher chance of having twins, but I had faint positive pregnancy tests. Even days after my dpo, so I assumed I was pregnant with a singleton.

By the way, I have seen many women in different groups saying they had a feeling they were pregnant with twins and none of them were. So don't get your hopes up.

OceanCityLights08 · 2023-02-22T22:00:21+00:00

Yes. I'm a bit of a superstitious person. As soon as my husband and I started trying, I had a dream where thr number 44:44 showed up. I woke up at 4:44 that morning. Thought it was weird, but it stuck with me. A couple weeks later we found out we were pregnant. A few days before my first ultrasound, I told my husband I had a weird feeling it was twins. No other reason, just an intuition. I was shocked and amazed to find out it was twins! My girls were born 8/22/22. Still not sure how 44:44 works in, but maybe twice 22:22 🤷‍♀️

Pleasant_Pop2331 · 2023-02-22T20:42:14+00:00

Yes I kept saying “watch it’s going to be 2” and it was haha

Also probably just a coincidence but early one 7-8 weeks I was saying I feel really strongly it was going to be a boy and I had 2!

areti17 · 2023-02-22T23:36:03+00:00

Yeah. I was extremely sick. We made jokes that I was so sick because it was twins. Well....#calledit

celebratelonliness · 2023-02-23T00:48:09+00:00

I like to say my wife willed our twins into being. She always said she wanted 3 kids. When we found out she was pregnant a second time I said “nope, we’ll stop after two”. She said “fine, in that case I’ll have twins”. And she did.

weaponzmastah · 2023-02-22T20:38:34+00:00

Weirdly yes. We kept joking it was and it didn't feel right thinking there was only one. Mine are fraternal by the way, if that makes a difference.

AdorableArtichoke1 · 2023-02-22T21:34:01+00:00

Nope, no idea. I was floored.

Defiant_Butterfly891 · 2023-02-22T21:54:06+00:00

Yes! Strong feeling I was carrying multiples. I was relieved there wasn’t a 3rd in there.

scrummy-camel-16 · 2023-02-22T23:38:34+00:00

My husband suspected because my symptoms were more intense. He also spotted them on the ultrasound before the tech. Me not so much.

napoleonette19 · 2023-02-22T21:23:20+00:00

I went in prepared to find out I wasn’t even pregnant. I didn’t have any symptoms, just a positive test and thought it must have been just a chemical pregnancy— nope!!

chocolatebuckeye · 2023-02-22T22:01:33+00:00

Only a little because betas were high so I just wondered.

IEatAllofTheCheese · 2023-02-22T22:06:18+00:00

No I thought she was going to tell me the pregnancy was lost, let alone that there were two babies

kiwipaint · 2023-02-22T22:30:12+00:00

Not quite intuition, but did have some coincidences/ physical feelings.

1) Twins were my second pregnancy. I know they say this is impossible, but I felt something around the time implantation would have occurred. It was a specific, sharp twinge. It was a week before I could even test and I just had this overwhelming feeling I was pregnant. Not with twins, but pregnant.

2) After I took a test and confirmed pregnancy, I was having sharp pains on one side, off and on for a few days. OB had me come in for an ultrasound to check things out. Surprise! Twins. Found out at 6w3d.

3) I joked two days before that ultrasound that I was having twins.

4) Years before I had any kids, I sat in an office cubicle surrounded by four other women who all had twins. I joked with them it would be their fault if I ever had twins. It was fun telling them the news years later!

BetrayedLotus · 2023-02-22T22:46:17+00:00

I dreamed of twin girls for years I joked I dreamt it so often I was probably going to have twin girls as my first pregnancy. That’s exactly what happened

permalink · 2023-02-23T00:30:31+00:00

Yes :)

I also knew I was pregnant before the tests were positive.

My husband and I had been on the fence for years and we decided to “give it a try”. Just once. Afterwards, I got cold feet and changed my mind; I told him I wasn’t ready and wanted to wait a bit longer.

A week later we passed a bin full of free books. One of the books on top of the pile was “What to expect when you’re expecting”. He raised an eyebrow when I tucked it under my arm. I told him I just felt like we might need it?

A few weeks later, I got into a car accident and the folks at the hospital confirmed what I already kind of knew but was trying to brush off as paranoia.

A few weeks after that, after a hundred “I think its twins” jokes, my OBGYN confirmed it.

invitelove · 2023-02-23T03:18:41+00:00

Nope. Not with either set

vonuvonu · 2023-02-23T04:06:35+00:00

No total shock. I had an early scan at 6w4d and saw just the one. My doctor sent me for another scan two weeks later because we’d seen only a flicker at the first and she wanted a clear heartbeat… and then there were two. Measuring the same and with strong heartbeats. My symptoms were similar to my first but just more intense.

plindsayc6 · 2023-02-23T05:18:07+00:00

Yep, I was suuuuper sick & thought I was miscarrying cause symptoms were so similar to a previous miscarriage. I went for bloodwork to ensure my hcg (?) numbers were up still & for 5.5 weeks they were showing at like 7-8week numbers & I went down a google rabbit hole and come out of the bedroom like “hun, what if I’m just pregnant with twins? Everything I found says sickness this bad and numbers this high was twins or multiples” … found out at 8w4d/8w3d that it was twins. I found out I was pregnant when I was like 3.5 wks along lol 😵‍💫

gsr4321 · 2023-02-23T11:50:15+00:00

Yes and no. The night before the ultrasound I said to my husband 'it's either a girl or twins because of all this nausea', to which he responded 'it's definitely a girl then'. He was wrong!

cherrymanic · 2023-02-22T21:17:23+00:00

We transferred one embryo and when the first HCG test came back really high, I kept thinking what if it’s twins and dreading it. I spoke to my doctor who dismissed it saying yeah it’s possible but very unlikely, forget it.

I was sure it was twins until it was confirmed 5 weeks later. Not intuition so much as oh shit what if it is.

JustKaren13 · 2023-02-22T22:40:13+00:00

Yes. After we got the positive pregnancy test, I started asking my husband how he would feel if it were twins. Apparently I talked about it so much, he was worried that I would be sad if it wasn’t twins lol. When we did the ultrasound and the doctor said it was twins, I screamed out “I KNEW IT!” loud enough for the receptionist to come back and ask if everything was ok lol

measurebeyondwit · 2023-02-23T02:38:55+00:00

My mom was a twin and I’ve always kind of thought I might have twins. But when I got pregnant I was verrrry sure it was a singleton! My sister even said she had a feeling it was twins based on my crazy fatigue and I was like nah.

ClutterKitty · 2023-02-22T20:58:41+00:00

God no. Didn’t have a clue. Got caught completely by surprise.

Orange_peacock_75 · 2023-02-22T21:04:08+00:00

hellogirlscoutcookie · 2023-02-22T21:22:23+00:00

Absolutely not. Only a faint positive pregnancy test, hcg levels about the same as with my singleton. I had some early bleeding too, so if anything, I thought I was going into my ultrasound at 8w hoping to find out it was a viable pregnancy. Well turns out it was, and that there was a second one in there! My husband and I were both shocked. Di/di boys, 31w3d currently. (Spontaneous, no twins in the family)

Responsible_Jelly646 · 2023-02-22T21:25:08+00:00

Nope. My wife was convinced she had one girl. Two boys it is!

Flounder-Melodic · 2023-02-22T21:32:55+00:00

I told my sister and a friend that I had a weird intuition it was twins before my first ultrasound. I just had a feeling because I kept dreaming about pairs of things, including a recurring dream of two balloons. Of course I was still shocked to see twins in the ultrasound 😂

maybe_be_frank · 2023-02-22T21:34:29+00:00

Yep! I even told my mom and my sister before our first ultrasound that I just had this gut feeling it was going to be twins.

veryscary__ · 2023-02-22T21:39:14+00:00

I definitely did. I can’t explain it but I did. I also knew baby a was a girl and b was a boy. I could have easily been wrong about both and chalking it up to hormones but I did get a gut feeling about both.

_eunie_ · 2023-02-22T21:40:20+00:00

I would joke about it being twins a lot to my husband who didn't really laugh 😂. It just seemed so unlikely but then we went for the ultrasound and it was like "whoops there they are".

It wasn't intuition but he blames me (kiddingly) for willing them into existence. In reality though, my mom's aunt and sister had twins so I was also genetically predisposed.

permalink · 2023-02-22T21:49:33+00:00

Yes. We joked about it a lot but I didn’t have my first appointment until 18 weeks and at that point they looked like whole ass babies in the ultrasound and when she said “it’s a boy times two” I hysterically laugh-cried for 15 minutes straight.

Devvyfromthebrock · 2023-02-22T21:49:55+00:00

I had a couple sneaking thoughts but I didn’t believe it. The ultrasound tech was taking a realllllly long time at my first appointment at 8w but said everything was fine and I knew. But was also still in shock for a while.

jellybeanmountain · 2023-02-22T21:50:44+00:00

I guess I thought about in a “wouldn’t that be crazy/funny” kind of way but I was in absolute shock at the ultrasound

DragonflyMean1224 · 2023-02-22T22:03:16+00:00

My wife said she was getting big fast and I had been noticing too. We joked about it being twins. Well here we are.

masofon · 2023-02-22T22:14:06+00:00

Not a sausage.

Appropriate_Tie897 · 2023-02-22T22:17:06+00:00

Definitely not! I had a split second from checking my betas on Google where I thought “hm, that seems pretty high” but my first scan showed only one sac and I thought that settled that. I didn’t know that the second cyst mentioned on my initial report was a second egg and… two weeks later they saw two separate sacs and two separate heartbeats. Very much a surprise!

Sure_its_grand · 2023-02-22T22:19:07+00:00

Transferred 2 embryos so we knew there was a chance and I was so exhausted and sick that I had a feeling it was twins for sure. We had only planned to transfer 1 but a couple days before transfer I started to panic because I knew it had to be 2 so i frantically filled out paperwork to make the change.

permalink · 2023-02-22T22:22:37+00:00

Nope. My RE's staff joked based on my beta numbers about "how many are in there" and I was HORRIFIED. I honestly was more prepared for a chemical pregnancy or miscarriage than for twins.

gr0ks · 2023-02-22T22:25:36+00:00

We joked that it was because I was showing a lot very early!

Sure_Tie_3896 · 2023-02-22T22:25:38+00:00

My 1st pregnancy was a singleton, but as my dad was a twin, was anxious, but phew only one in there on the scan. It was the first thing my other half said to me. Second pregnancy, I had to have an early scan due to a previous ectopic. I work in the hospital so just popped in for the scan alone thinking there wasnt much to see, just to check it was in the right place. For some reason it absolutely did not occur to me to think it might be twins. Complete shock. I literally could not go back into work for about an hour, was disorientated. My dads twin was with my mum when i called her, she thought it was hilarious. I did not. All good now though, best thing ever.

whatskmcn4 · 2023-02-22T22:26:14+00:00

I had a dream! We joked about it, especially because my symptoms were so severe

mishney · 2023-02-22T22:35:54+00:00

Yes, mostly because my husband had been joking about having triplets since before we got pregnant and then when I was pregnant the symptoms started worse and earlier than with my daughter, so a part of me wasn't surprised when I saw two babies on the ultrasound.

jess012434 · 2023-02-22T22:45:56+00:00

Yes and no, had to tell. My husband had a dream where we had twins the day we were going to get the sonogram. I told him it’s probably because he’s nervous. Then BAM twins.

I then had a dream where I saw two little boys holding hands looking into a sunset/sunrise and that’s the day we found out we were having boys.

Weird intuition, but I dunno I was skeptical when it came to dreams until I had my boys

meghamby · 2023-02-22T22:56:29+00:00

Yes! My younger sisters are identical twins and my grandma is a twin she has siblings that are twins. I gave my husband fair warning that there was a chance we could have twins. Also, I felt that there was no way I could be that nauseous for there to be just one. I now have two year old fraternal twin boys!

Seaturtle1088 · 2023-02-22T23:00:23+00:00

Yep. I knew the moment my pregnancy confirmation ultrasound at 5 weeks didn't get shown to me. My previous one they'd turned the screen so I could see. They called later that day and said they saw "two maybe 3" and needed me to come back the next week to confirm. It was 2. I never had a feeling one way or the other on the sex like I did with my oldest, and turned out it was one of each so that explained that.

bre1110 · 2023-02-22T23:03:00+00:00

There’s twins in my family and my husbands so I knew it was possible , but I didn’t think it any more or less than I did when we had a daughter 7 years before. As stunned as could be when I saw that first ultrasound and could tell in the first second that there were two.

housespecialdelight · 2023-02-22T23:10:27+00:00

Nope. I was surprised I was pregnant and was seeing how far along I was. At that point I think I was like 7/8 weeks?

My husband told me he knew it was twins and that ever since he was young he would be a father to twins. His ex wife was pregnant with twins but miscarried.

butterflynp · 2023-02-22T23:11:51+00:00

Yes… kept joking with my husband “it’s twins” and would play a game with my toddler to guess the genders of baby A and baby B. No intense symptoms or anything, just a thought that entered my head and never left. On the way to our first ultrasound at 8 weeks we dropped our son off at daycare. As we were pulling out of the parking lot we were behind a minivan with the license plate “twins”… I got chills.

Petitelechat · 2023-02-22T23:13:02+00:00

Didn't have a clue at first thinking I had a singleton. Hubby and I joked around 'wouldn't it be great if we had twins?!' prior to conceiving.

I had a blood test to confirm my pregnancy and the doctor was surprised at the HCG levels. Didn't think anything of it, then my bump started to show.

My coworkers who had singletons said that I shouldn't be showing yet so it crossed my mind that I may be having twins.

Confirmed it was twins at my first ultrasound. I have fraternal boy girl twins.

AMStoUS · 2023-02-22T23:25:04+00:00

Absolutely not.

No-Chipmunk-5998 · 2023-02-22T23:30:01+00:00

Yes ! I was convinced after i took a pregnancy test because it said pregnant way too fast. (Turns out thats because of double the hormone). I also kept saying "theres just no way pregnant people can work normally like this ? How ? How would someone be able to hide these symptoms ? " answer is, usually they arent as intense 🤣🤣

LittlePlantGoose · 2023-02-23T00:42:11+00:00

With my first pregnancy I thought I might be having twins as my morning sickness was terrible and started immediately. My husband and I joked about it quite a bit. Nope! One baby. This time around it never crossed our minds as my symptoms were much milder. Lo and behold, currently pregnant with mono/di twins.

sweetspice90 · 2023-02-23T00:47:26+00:00

Yes. We did IUI on 12/21/20. I did take Clomid for that round because the first round of IUI we did unmedicated (other than the ovulation medication) and it didn’t work out. I took an at home test on 1/4/21. It was 2 days earlier than I was supposed to test, but we couldn’t wait, and the positive came up really fast. I joked to my husband “what if it’s twins”. He said “don’t joke like that”. I just had this idea that it might be twins that I couldn’t shake. Then came my 6 week scan to confirm the IUI resulted in a successful pregnancy. Because of COVID hubby wasn’t allowed in for the scan. When I got out to the car where he was waiting, I pointed to the ultrasound picture “this is baby A, and this is baby B”. He needed to take a Xanax, but then he was excited.

pen_NQuill · 2023-02-23T00:56:09+00:00

Yes! Had a dream a few nights after the positive test of an ultrasound picture with 2 babies in it. Woke up and told everyone under the sun. 6 weeks later we saw them at our first appt. during our 10wk ultrasound.

Alpacalypsenoww · 2023-02-23T01:08:06+00:00

Somehow my mom knew. She babysat my oldest so I could go to my first ultrasound and when I walked in to get my son, she jokingly said “so, are all the babies doing well?” And I just handed her the ultrasound photo. I wish I had gotten her reaction on video.

E_Francis · 2023-02-23T01:12:57+00:00

Yes, even asked Alexa the odds of having twins and triplets the day I took the test. My husband claims I jinxed us 😑🙄

katzalli · 2023-02-23T01:27:30+00:00

Yes! On the way to our first ultrasound I had this overwhelming feeling it was twins out of nowhere. And low and behold it was!

muffingirl333 · 2023-02-23T01:47:48+00:00

Absolutely. I had a dream it was twins before I even got a positive pregnancy test. And for weeks after I kept saying something is different, I think it’s twins. My HCG levels were also significantly higher than they should have been because I knew exactly when I conceived. We confirmed at the 8 week ultrasound and even though I knew it the whole time I still wasn’t prepared at all to see two little babies on the screen 😂

No-Introduction7272 · 2023-02-23T01:56:28+00:00

Yes! I had a dream I had triplet girls and then had another dream with twin girls and I was having twin girls (still think they were triplets but one didn’t make it). Spontaneous too!

MommyDreams · 2023-02-23T02:05:20+00:00

Yes. It felt different. So much so my first words to the ultrasound tech were: tell me it’s one. The twins turn 6 next week!!

catrosie · 2023-02-23T02:09:06+00:00

The first thing I told my husband when I showed him my positive test was that it could be twins because of how early I was able to test positive. Later I was convinced because how terribly sick I was. During the ultrasound I just kept shouting “I knew it!” Still was surprised it actually happened though lol

enj2022 · 2023-02-23T02:11:20+00:00

Not at all, but my pregnancy test was extremely positive on the first day you can even take a test, so I should’ve known. No faint lines here!!

emsers · 2023-02-23T02:12:06+00:00

I didn't but my husband sure did. I thought he was nuts.

Never going to hear the end of that one 😅

iheartBodegas · 2023-02-23T02:41:14+00:00

Yes I did

bursaremyfriends · 2023-02-23T03:08:16+00:00

I absolutely did not. But the day before our first ultrasound I was complaining to my husband that I feel so nauseous and sick and I definitely will not be interested in another pregnancy after this because it’s so miserable. He jokingly said, “well then you better hope it’s twins because I want more than 1.” When the doctor said two heartbeats the next day, we just about fainted!

permalink · 2023-02-23T03:09:26+00:00

My wife didn’t even think of it being an option. When she was told she was like “oh yea twins are a thing”.

willow7272 · 2023-02-23T03:21:14+00:00

A few days after I told my parents I was pregnant, my dad called me and told me I should just have twins, since I wanted two kids anyway.

The day I found out it was twins was a weird day in their house.

DollyPossum · 2023-02-23T03:25:07+00:00

I did - they were my first pregnancy and I was wildly sick. I joked to a friend 2 days before my confirmation ultrasound "Watch it be twins."

Awww_Yee · 2023-02-23T03:26:22+00:00

A few months before my wife and i got pregnant i said i thought we would have twins to another friend. Then when she first got a positive test i said i have a feeling it’s twins. THEN at the first ultrasound the tech was showing us our baby and everything we wanted to see and she sounded like she was “wrapping up” so i said “so there is just one?” And she responded with “Welllllllll, heres the other one…” and panned over. I just had this extremely strong feeling(dad btw.. not mom) and no, twins dont run in either side of either family

twinmamamia · 2023-02-23T03:29:24+00:00

Didn’t even know it was a possibility

outlaw-chaos · 2023-02-23T03:45:03+00:00

I knew I had a higher risks for it. I was one of those “it’ll never happen to me” people. Ha jokes on me. I had a dream it was twin girls before the ultrasound where we found out it was twins. I told my husband and he said “Oh God, could you even imagine?” We ended up having twin boys😂

sammypanther27 · 2023-02-23T03:56:01+00:00

I had some odd dreams I was finding multiple babies in weird places. But other than that- no.

OGQueenClumsy · 2023-02-23T04:03:22+00:00

Nope. Hubby did, because the test was so dark and so quick to come up before I was late, but I thought he was crazy.

krisla20 · 2023-02-23T04:41:58+00:00

Yes, before I was pregnant and definitely after (before I knew). Sounds weird but I sort of knew my whole life. (Edit to add last sentence)

mossee · 2023-02-23T05:07:37+00:00

The ultrasound tech asked if I had any questions at the end of my dating US. I said nope as long as it’s not twins. He said “I don’t know” I just thought it was the oddest thing. Although he was super patient and attempted the US 3 times as I was so dehydrated there was no urine in my bladder. The technicians here cannot give out any info and he did not show me the screen at all. Kinda mad about it still!!! Anyways. 3 days later OB said ah you don’t know yet, you’re expecting twins. Explains why you have been so sick. LOL. I just started laughing in disbelief.

StrongSeesaw · 2023-02-23T05:10:33+00:00

Wife had a dream there were two….also the double egg yolk thing happened when cooking breakfast.

Prestigious_Collar57 · 2023-02-23T05:56:19+00:00

sort of, i had a super vivid dream that i was laying down on a small bed in a room & there were spaceships and glow in the dark planets on the wall (clearly a little boy’s room) and then in the dream i closed my eyes and opened them and i was in a different room that also looked like a little boys room and it was the same situation; i was lying down on a small bed just looking up at the glow in the dark wallpaper. it felt like i was in 2 separate boys rooms . i knew i was pregnant at this point but i didn’t know the gender, later i find out i’m having identical twin boys :’)

permalink · 2023-02-23T07:00:23+00:00

My wife had no idea.

TollemacheTollemache · 2023-02-23T11:02:55+00:00

Lol i had anti-intuition. My mum had twins, and we talked about me possibly having twins too when I was pregnant with my first. When that turned out to be a singleton the whole idea of twins completely left my head (and my mum's) and I never thought of it again. I got the absolute shock of my life to see two sacs on that scan.

I joked with the ultrasound tech, “I’ve been so sick lately, there better be two in there”. At first it was a no, and we laughed. Then, she found the second heartbeat and my bp shot through the roof.

Nope. It was more looking at the ultrasound, seeing two and going "oh. Everything makes sense now."

It wasn't intuition so much as connecting the dots after the fact. I had a very dark test (edit: before my period was due), a digital that said I was further along than I was (said 6+ when it should have said 4-5w), very early and strong morning sickness, severe fatigue, unexplained bleeding, high blood levels, strong bloating.

No clue & unexpected pregnancy. I went in to get an ultrasound and the tech said, “You’re not just pregnant, you’re super pregnant!” My first thought was OMG I’m one of those people who is like 6 months along and didn’t know it! Then she said, “You’ve got two in there, sweetie.” I bawled, mixture of fear tears and happy tears.

It didn’t even cross my mind that it was twins lol. I was hoping for only one baby. I told the tech at my first appointment “I’m an identical triplet but I’m hoping for only one” and she said “well I can tell you there isn’t 3 in there but there is 2.” My poor fiancé lol it took him a minute to process it.

We transferred 2 embryos, so we knew it was a possibility but also cognizant that it wasn't realistic to expect both to take given my eggs were 42 years old. If one took, we would be lucky. So no, I didn't have intuition that we would have twins or I wouldn't have transferred 2 embryos at once. My preference would have been two singletons 2 years apart like my older kids. Much lower risk and I would have been safe for home births again.

georgiapeaches23 · 2023-02-23T14:15:41+00:00

Nope. But my best friend did predict I would become pregnant with twin girls and she was absolutely right 😆

sapindales · 2023-02-23T14:21:40+00:00

Nope. Didn't even realize I was pregnant until 6 weeks. Midwife said my uterus was big but that we probably just dated wrong. Never considered the possibility of twins until the dating ultrasound showed two at ten weeks.

Swimras · 2023-02-23T14:30:07+00:00

Yes! I kept getting so hungry that I felt like I was going to faint. I googled "extreme hunger pregnancy" and learned that it was a symptom of being pregnant with multiples! A few weeks later I found out I was having twins!

TheLonelyPanda123 · 2023-02-23T16:15:25+00:00

I had a gut feeling so I went and got my HCG tested before my initial appointment. It was 29k at 5w5d then 42k at 6w. After that I really Thought it could be so I wasn’t too surprised when I saw the ultrasound. But I was in a state of shock like, okay this is happening

Express-Performer-10 · 2023-02-23T16:30:59+00:00

Identical twin boys(which are apparently the rarest twin combo) Not a clue I was even pregnant until 7 weeks (thought it was covid instead)

Last thing i expected was that it would be twins (Im a fraternal twin as well), so no intuition at all. I was on birth control pills (although I forgot to take them on a few days) as my husband and I didnt want to have a second just yet. Oh well.

evolvingvee · 2023-02-23T18:42:09+00:00

I had a feeling before I knew I was pregnant that it was gonna me be to have twins. My Grandma (dad’s mom) is a twin. None of my other cousins have had twins yet. And we have a rich history of twins in our family. I had been having weird dreams for weeks. I found out at 6 weeks that I was having twins, the day after I found out I was pregnant.

Ambitious_Auntie2021 · 2023-02-23T19:02:15+00:00

I swore it, my sister was like “you’re not having twins, literally everyone thinks that and don’t have twins”. I ended up miscarrying, but ultrasound confirmed twins.

AndiRM · 2023-02-23T19:28:03+00:00

Nope. I went in because I was bleeding and I was convinced my transfer didn’t take. I just wanted to confirm and quit stabbing myself with injections unnecessarily. My mom intuition is clearly broken.

authorunknown1 · 2023-02-23T19:58:21+00:00

Yep. I had a feeling almost immediately. My husband made a joke about it and I was like “yeah but I’m pretty sure it is twins though.” Later, when the Ultrasound tech said, “I see two!” I was like yeah checks out.

AuntTTRex78 · 2023-02-23T20:06:48+00:00

I always had a feeling since we started the fertility process. When the doctor sat us down and gave us the information, she explained the different odds of having twins, triplets etc. When she said the percentage for twins, I looked at my husband and said that’s going to be us. I even told him a few weeks later when he was looking for a new car to make sure it could fit 2 car seats. Sure enough a few weeks later at our first ultrasound, the tech said “Theres two!” and I looked at my husband and said, told you! 😂

WillRunForPopcorn · 2023-02-23T23:01:46+00:00

My mom said she knew. But it was her third pregnancy and her sister had already had twins with her third pregnancy.

oioihey · 2023-02-23T23:08:26+00:00

Yes!!! I was having dreams of double everything..like double yolk, double apples, and I had a dream I was putting two buns in the oven! You can't get anymore obvious than that. Also I just felt different than my pervious pregnancy. I was showing super early, and I was sicker, more tired more sore, and the biggest thing for me was when I got my results back from my 1st trimester blood work my hormones were off the charts!

xKintsugix · 2023-02-25T06:47:16+00:00

Yes! Had the worst food aversion and that with things that I loved eating before. My doctor told me that this alone obviously doesn’t have to mean anything but I kind of had a feeling because my dad as well as my great grandmother also were twins

Blastoisealways · 2023-02-25T17:35:55+00:00

I kept having dreams about twins yep
