Woo-hoo for you!

Wow, consider yourself lucky with the no morning sickness thing! After 7 weeks I started throwing up 3-4 times a day, which quickly escalated to 6 or more times a day. Now I'm 17 weeks and only throwing up 1-2 times a day but feeling sick constantly still :( Because of the nausea I haven't been able to work as a substitute teacher in over a month. Hopefully it will subside soon. Congrats!

My Twin Pregnancy Experience
by: A Surprisehnj

I already have three children,so it was a huge surprise when I found out I was pregnant. It's been an emotional rollercoaster as I was told at 8 weeks that I lost one baby then the following week they told me I'm still having twins. The weird thing was I passed a clot and had a lot of bleeding and presently I'm bleeding but it is old blood. I'm currently 14 weeks pregnant with twins. It has been such a horrific experience with my lack of eating.I constantly vomitted every meal up to the point where 3 weeks ago I had to go to the emergency room due to severe dehydration and flu like symptoms on top of it. Just Recently, I've been able to keep my food down, so I'm feeling better. I was told that I'm having fraternal twins but unsure of the genders. I will find out in another month.

morning sickness
by: Melissa

For those asking about morning sickness I didn't have any at all until my second trimester. and it only got worse from there. I'm 34 weeks now and over the last month I went from getting sick 2-3 times a week to it happening a couple times a day. Also since we are having 2 girls my dr said we have to wait until after delivery to find out for sure if they are idenical or fraternal although we're pretty sure they are fraternal. Good luck to all.

Sickness
by: Dianna

I have had no sickness what so ever. When I first found out I was expecting I was super hungry all the time, I was eating several times a day and even at night. Right now Im not as hungry as I was. I have heard I was luck to not have any sickness with my first pregnancy

Identical vs. Fraternal
by: Dianna

Thank you for the comment on fraternal vs. identical. That would be cray if they were identical! None the less im am very happy they are healthy. Good luck to you!

Fraternal vs. Identical
by: Anonymous

There is still a 25% chance they are identical, since they are both girls. I am also pregnant with twins who have sep.sacs and placenta's. I assumed they were fraternal until my OB said otherwise. Unless you had IVF and put two eggs back there is always that chance. Normally they will test the placenta's after birth to see if they are identical or frat. Good luck to you!!
