Fat Already

I'm only 9 weeks and I already have a belly! It was like all the sudden I woke up and there it was. My husband keeps teasing me about having twins because he has like 3 or 4 sets of twins in his family, but don't I have to have twins on my side? I'm not sure how that works. I've read that with each subsequent pregnancy that you can show faster. So my question for everyone(probably like 5 people that actually read my blog. lol) is, Did you show sooner with your 2nd, 3rd, etc... pregnancies? And the previous question..Do I need to have twins on my side? Not that I wouldn't love whatever I got, but twins would be hard. We would have to buy a new car just to fit us all. Not to mention double the diapers, double the clothes, and double the breast feeding(if I could handle it)! If you can't tell I'm freaking out about this. LOL

I showed much, much earlier with my 3rd. I had to break out my maternity clothes by 3 months.

I always have a belly-pregnant or not so I can't help you there. I guess with twins-my sisters are identical twins but one doctor told me then I don't have a chance of twins b/c it is more of a freak of nature...fraternal is where you would drop more than one egg a month and both get fertilized and they are separate...but I am NO expert at all so it seems to me like it would have to be on the mom's side if it were to be genetic.
When do you go in?

Rachael said...

Oh-and I pulled out the maternity jeans at 10 weeks b/c it just isn't any fun to have something tight around the belly at that point!
And you look great anyway!

LOL! You are SO not showing yet...at least to me. When I saw you at church I couldn't even tell! But, I definitely started showing earlier with this pregnancy and I'm a lot bigger at 6 months that I was with Tyler at 6 months. Good times :-) As far as the twin things go, I'm sure you're just showing earlier :-) When do you see the doctor? Karl has twin aunts on his mom's side and I have twin aunts on my mom's side and we don't have twins yet so not sure it's really genetic either. Good luck!

To rest your mind at ease....if you do discover you have twins then I will just buy one from ya. I really want another kid but I can't afford insurance. You will be my "womb for rent". This way you don't have to worry about the bigger car, diapers, and all that stuff. I may have you do the breast feeding though....

Oh my gosh!!! I had no idea you was pregnant. Thats so funny. I am around 10 weeks or so. Well I go to the doctor nect friday so I will know for sure. But about a week and a half ago I started to show too. I know by the end of next month I will be in materity clothes.:( keep me updated cause i bet we are due around the same time.

Ok it may not help but I have known a few women who have had twins who its all on the fathers side of the family so it does happen its just not as common. Yes I showed sooner with the 2nd and I think its because your skin has already been beat up once.lol. But Congrats on the new baby, you will have to let us know what the Doc says.
