    Pregnant advice, I need some
    I have a question about how you feel when pregnant with one child vs. pregnant with two. I'm feeling very big and very crampy not bad cramps but like the growing cramps of pregnant. I just feel like this is very early on two be feeling all this. I was wondering if it feels different being pregnant with two than with one. Just curious. My first dr appt isn't till the 8th so I'll ask when I talk to him too.

    Dear Myth, I would assume that if you could possibly have twins, that there is 'double' the amount of cell growth and movement within, but as you said until you get that ultrasound for reassurance, you'll not be sure. If there is a history of twins in either of your families, or you got clinical hormonal help in getting pregnant, then this is also possible.

    I will cross my fingers for you until then, and by all means keep me posted as soon as you find out. You could also check the www.askdramy.com site, maybe there are questions and answers with the same issues, as it's an English site and they tend to have multiple pregnancies more than other countries.

    Again good luck.

    See and there in lies the problem. There isn't on his side at all, but on my side? My mother was adopted and I don't know my bio father at all. He was gone before I was born. I just am not sure about my side. Hurry and wait game again... Patience is just not one of my stronger virtues right now... lol...

    Myth, I had a similar situation with my second pregnancy. Im assuming this isn't your first. I expirenced more aches in pains and problems with my siatic nerve very early in my second prg. Beginning at almost three months. My first, I didn'nt have any aches and pains until I was far along. I had asked this question to my doctor, because since it was so early in my pregancy I wanted to make sure nothing was wrong. Everything was fine and she said that usually with second or more pregnancy more woman feel more aches than with there first, but there wasn't a real reason for it. Or it could be that every pregnant, you expirence something different. Everything you had in your first don't expect the same thing in your second. If when in doubt just talk to your doctor. Chery also could be right too. Defenitly go see your doctor and tell them what your expirencing they might be able to put your mind to rest.

    I understand and know what you mean, dear, but patience is what you need at this stage. You'll soon get that ultrasound and then be reassured. Again, we are all here for you to help you along too.

    My real dad is from Kentucky, black hair - and I don't know much about his family. I'm blond, my mom was blond, my daughter blond, but she also has Blackfoot Indian blood from her father's side of the family. Her b/f' is light haired too, but they could have a dark-haired and dark-eyed child - boy I can't wait either - this is all so exciting.
    Just goes to prove that each little new bundle is a blessing and surprise!

    Ok here it goes. I was looking at my calendar and my cycle and the such. Well I came across something that I found questionable. Not to mention the fact that I've gone up three pants sizes *12-18* and well some of you already know that I was three days late on my last cycle in dec. I was sapposed to start on the 13th but instead started on the 16th. My first question is would implantation bleeding be at 11 days since that was how far before the 16th I ovulated, I went to the dr. on the 21st of dec and they did a urine test not blood test, could that have been wrong? Also I didn't test positive until a month had passed with my two previous pregnant. I know only my dr. can truly tell me for sure. I'm just looking for opinions, not answers. That and I'm kind of killing time till my appointment. I'm just curious because of my history and the fact that I seem to be losing all symptoms of early pregnant at the educated guess of being 6 weeks along. Thank you all for being so patient with me in this hurry and wait period. I'm really not stressing over it. It just made me curious. Have I mentioned that I'm a gemini and I'm always curious... lol... any feedback would be very welcomed. Thanks again you guys.

    Dear, am going to try and attach some documents that show you the Weeks and also the Stages with explanations of what goes on inside. If they are too big to be able to send here, I'll send just one and that's week 10, and will send the other as we go along, just remind me. Or, you could PM me an email address (if you have not already) so that I can send them to you. Please excuse my memory lately, I'm on some heavy morphine and will be for the next few weeks, before surgery. - Everything will be fine though, for you, and for me, so don't worry. I know all about the 'hurry up and wait' feeling, and it gets to all of us.

    OOPS, just as I thought the files are too large to upload, but I will figure out a way to send them to you.
    Will send you Stage 14 for now to see if you get anything out of it.
    Let me know, and keep us posted.

    I do remember being as big as a house and Jaime only weighed in at 7lb, 3 1/2 oz, so a lot of it was probably water and the placenta. Or, it could have been me eating a lot. She does not have any 'symptoms' of early pregnancy either, no morning sickness, etc, just a little tired and boobs getting bigger, that's all - she's one of the lucky ones.

    Remember also, that no pregnancy is the same, so keep that in mind in case you start worrying on me - I don't want that.

    I also tried finding information on multiple pregnancy development, but not found any yet, as soon as I do, I'll send you the link.

    Lots of Hugs, Chery


    Larry, my cat is telling me I should come to bed before the medication knocks me out at the computer. He's just such a caring fella.

    Dear Myth, I sent the documents on another thread where your post was on, but just in case you missed them in your e-mail, I'll post them here too. Remember, you have seven days to download them.
    Love, Chery
