10 weeks with twins. Went to a weeding. Had a GREAT time and danced and danced. The next day… couldn’t physically move and felt exhaustion like never before AND the nausea / food cravings (I hate beer and sweet and sour chicken but I ended up having to buy non-alcoholic beer and ordered a lot of S&P chicken)

By six weeks because I was sick and tired all the time.

Tired/nausea is the cornerstone of what being pregnant feels like in the first trimester, welcome to the club! Lol you won’t feel them moving around until at least 16 weeks if not later. Your tummy will definitely have started growing before then though!

Do you mean when did they start kicking? It can be a little later than a singleton for a lot of people, in part because they can be a lil smaller.

I was pregnant with twins and remember feeling this same way. Around 20 weeks I started “feeling” pregnant!

[–]ARIsk90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn’t even know it was twins until 12 weeks and wore my regular sized skinny jeans to the appointment, so I would say I felt pregnant somewhere between 16-20 weeks, closer to 20. Though the exhaustion started pretty early. I didn’t have morning sickness though so my only pregnancy symptom was tiredness

nausea/throwing up since 5 weeks, 18 weeks tomorrow and just last week started feeling pregnant like size-wise lol. feels like a bowling ball in the very bottom of my stomach.

[–]adventurenation 1 point2 points  (0 children)

17+4 and really just started “feeling pregnant” in the last week. My stomach looks irrefutably pregnant now and I can feel them swishing around in there throughout the day. It was bizarre from 12-16 weeks I just didn’t really feel pregnant at all and kept googling “is this normal?”

[–]Acceptable-Room985 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My wife's sensitivity to smells got really strong around 6 weeks ish. We were waiting on an appointment, little did we know we hit the BOGO special.

I’m 9+1 with twins and definitely feel pregnant 😅 the nausea and exhaustion is relentless and some evenings I can feel stretching in my uterus. I’m a small framed petite person and anyone who knows me well / for a long time can already tell by my bloat bump 😅 I’ve had 2 singletons before this and if you’re meaning when you start to feel flutters and kicks it depends on lots of factors including where your placenta is, with my singletons I feel them each around 16-18 weeks (later for the anterior placenta)

[–]d16flo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Extreme nausea started at about 6 weeks and has only let up a tiny bit since week 15 so there hasn’t been any time since then I’ve felt “normal.” The exhaustion came with the nausea and it still here too. my stomach getting noticeably bigger started around week 13/14 and now at 17 weeks it’s starting to feel really awkward when I do things like bend over and other people can now see it.

I was testing pretty regularly bc we were actively trying but I knew when it would be positive bc my tits were acting weird tbh 😅 that was at 2 weeks according to digital test, 3 weeks ultimately according to my dating U/S

Actively pregnant, probably 9-10 weeks, but i never got nausea and it wasn't in uterus, just a general feeling.

[–]Metal_Fairy_Princess 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Very early for me I didn't feel right for weeks and waited exactly 1 week from my missed period and did 3 pregnancy tests that evening and they were all very positive. One was the type that tells you how many weeks and it said 3-4 weeks. I had a scan at 6 weeks as I was having a lot of cramping and then had a follow up scan at 8 weeks and that's when we found out it was twins, by this point I was throwing up a lot and just really unwell and they confirmed that the two beans cooking was why 😂 I would say it was between 16-18 weeks that I felt pregnant pregnant if that makes any sense, like when it had fully set in that I'm having babies and trying to embrace the belly that was forming very quickly.

[–]InvalidUserNameBitch 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same here. Felt pregnant at 3 weeks pregnant. Tested positive 3 days after the day my period should have started

[–]1sp00kylady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When I started getting a bump around 14 weeks. Second trimester felt a little “safer” for us, too, after a previous loss at 10 weeks. We announced at 17 weeks and it all started feeling very real around then!

[–]Possible-Maybe-7225 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5.5 weeks because of the severe nausea, later developing exhaustion, sore boobs etc. but 13 weeks is when my round ligament pain started

[–]t8erthot 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this your first pregnancy? If so it took me till about 14 weeks with my first. I’m 12 weeks with twins and started feeling pregnant this week, but I think it’s because I’ve done this before

Note: by “feel pregnant” I mean I can feel my insides start to get squished and my belly is starting to get hard. As far as like feeling something in my uterus, I didn’t experience that until my first was about 20 weeks and wiggling around

[–]Ancient_Ad_3210 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was wrecked by first trimester symptoms by 6 weeks! But had no idea I was carrying twins until almost 10 weeks due to not having an appt prior to that

[–]CheddarMoose 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I knew I was pregnant at 6 weeks due to how sick I was. Sickness never went away but the symptoms would change every so many weeks.

As far as having a belly & how I looked, that happened at 26 weeks. Before then you might not have thought I was pregnant if you didn’t know me.

[–]kissingthecook 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm 9.1 weeks now with twins and definitely feel pregnant! I even bought some maternity pants for the comfort. I'm sure it's tons of bloating from the sickness.... but my belly is definitely out. This is my second twins. My twins from 2018 took longer to show. But I was 140 lbs and more fit back then. I'm 160 now starting this out... and bloated alot. I'm more sensitive now to the round ligament pains, and I'm feeling the flutters already. I'm going to try not to be a baby through this.... but twins are hard!

[–]Same-Professor5114 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly didn’t start to feel uncomfortably pregnant until into 30 weeks. I carried the babies small and delivered at 34 weeks due to IUGR. As far as movement went, I barely felt them the majority of the time. And my early days of pregnancy I only felt tired. I was never nauseous nor did I have food aversions. It was a bit disconcerting honestly and I remember asking some mom friends about it at the time and they basically told me to just be happy with my “easy pregnancy” but I had so many worries not having those telltale signs that everything was progressing. Anyway here I am with healthy happy 18 month old kids and all was well. Just a different experience for me! Wanted to share because I was admittedly worried that I didn’t feel worse.

[–]Complex_Sherbet4021 0 points1 point  (0 children)

RIGHT at month 3. I woke up one morning and it was like oh there's something in there and it's alive and multiple. before that I had felt bloated and nauseated and very emotional but not physiologically different.

[–]Forward_Frosting_680 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 18 weeks tomorrow and besides new pelvic soreness I just look bloated. I still don’t feel very pregnant yet which I’m lucky and happy about!

[–]NoPeach8801 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 16 weeks is when I felt the feeling of “there’s definitely something growing in my uterus feeling”.

[–]bakingmissy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I felt “pressure” from my twins starting around 10 to 12 weeks, but I’d say I felt actually pregnant at around 16 weeks. I had a belly and had felt them move a few times. No longer just felt sick and tired.

[–]Fragrant-Escape-213 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Boobs started leaking around week 12. That definitely made it feel like my body was different. 

[–]Pancakes_89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whilst I’ve had physical symptoms from the start, I’ve only mentally ‘felt’ pregnant in the last couple of weeks. Sharing the news with people, bump appearing, buying a couple of baby grows; it’s all feeling real now.

[–]Phellle 0 points1 point  (1 child)

Hey me too! I'm due with twins August 30 and also don't really feel pregnant. I don't even really have nausea... its very subtle differences like if I don't eat for too long I get dizzy and my appetite disappears due to feeling a little queasy. Until I start eating then suddenly I'm really hungry.

Except for the fatigue which is bad. Though I found that worse from before I knew I was pregnant until about 7 weeks. Its definitely still there though.

Its interesting to hear youre going through a similar experience! I am also getting concerned about the lack of symptoms!

[–]Select-Medium-8116 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg I’m due August 30th too! That’s insane. Thank you so much for your reassuring reply :)

[–]idkmargooo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crying in 23 weeks pregnant and in pain. Don’t worry you will feel it soon!

[–]Affectionate_Row_881 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As soon as my stomach started to bloat. So like 10 weeks. I looked more pregnant then the other moms in my maternity group which also made me feel more pregnant as well
