And I have to tell you the sickness I had in the first few weeks was STUNNING! Not nausea really, although I hear people can get that pretty badly, but the tiredness and muscle weakness was like narcolepsy. I actually thought something else might be wrong with me, something bad like cancer. It lasted 10 days, and then went back to the normal usual tiredness you have with pregnancy. When I learned it was twins, other twin moms told me that had the same situation.Shama-Lama Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07135491072067344065noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31368018.post-79655859307267990842007-08-14T12:35:00.000-07:002007-08-14T12:35:00.000-07:00I've heard that you show faster each time, too. I ...I've heard that you show faster each time, too. <BR/><BR/>I was so sick that I actually lost weight in each pregnancy, and both were delivered prematurely, too. And that was with tons of medical interventions... I feel so blessed that they both were fairly healthy! But, I guess I am probably not the person to be asking about "what's normal". :)Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05586345335424142815noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31368018.post-47998617156109907232007-08-14T07:31:00.000-07:002007-08-14T07:31:00.000-07:00Hey!Thanks for the congrats! As far as if you are ...Hey!<BR/><BR/>Thanks for the congrats! <BR/><BR/>As far as if you are having twins or not...you'll know at 20 weeks for sure! Maybe sooner if you have an ultrasound. <BR/><BR/>My cousins wife looked like she was 40 weeks at 20 weeks with her twins (unfortunately, if you remember, she was not able to keep her babies...God decided to keep them for Himself).<BR/><BR/>Oh, and to answer your question about if you look bigger with each pregnancy...YES! Your uterus is that much more stretchy with each baby...at least for the first 3 or so. This time everyone was asking me when I was due at 30 weeks (thinking I was due anytime!). The last time I went to church I was 35 weeks and I was asked the question again of when I was due, little did I know that I would deliver a week later!<BR/><BR/>Anyway, my dates were NOT off, I just looked HUGE!!! At least huge for my 5' 3" frame! However, I did not get as huge as I did with my last pregnancy simply because I was early.<BR/><BR/>I hope your morning sickness gets better! Mine lasts for about 5-6 months, but the last 3 months I usually feel great!<BR/><BR/>Blessings!<BR/>Heatherrunningtothecrosshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09311425135649134602noreply@blogger.com
