A girl who is pregnant with twins or triplets should be more careful about her health than any other woman in an "interesting" position. In this case, the load on the organism of the future mother increases many times, so she can not ignore any, even the slightest malaise.
Modern diagnostic technologies and, in particular, ultrasound can identify a multiple pregnancy in the early stages, but there are other signs, thanks to which a woman and herself can suspect the bearing of twins.
How to identify a multiple pregnancy in the early stages?
In numerous areas of the Internet, you can find far more than one forum where women discuss the first signs of a multiple pregnancy in the early stages. Future mothers who later learned that they are expecting twins, in the first weeks after conception, most often noticed the following symptoms:
- During the use of the pregnancy test strip , it can be found that the control indicator is very bright and bold. This is due to the fact that the level of hCG in a girl waiting for the birth of twins or triplets is significantly higher than that of a mommy pregnant with one child;
- most expectant mothers note that they were experiencing an incredible craving for sleep. In a literal sense, these women could sleep even standing, still completely unaware of the presence of pregnancy, and even more prolific;
- clinical manifestations of toxicosis can also be very pronounced. Meanwhile, this sign is only relative and does not at all indicate the presence of several embryos;
- on the face of the future mother of twins or triplets very often there is an acne and other unpleasant cosmetic defects;
- The stomach grows much faster, therefore the figure of many women dramatically changes in the first trimester. In addition, as the babies develop on the belly of the future mother, you can notice a horizontal
furrow; - Finally, with multiple pregnancies, the mother may feel the movements of the crumbs much earlier. So, if a woman has no longer the first baby, she can detect the characteristic sensations as early as 9-10 weeks.
Undoubtedly, if any symptoms of multiple pregnancies are detected in the early stages, it is necessary to turn to a gynecologist and perform an ultrasound to determine the number of embryos in the uterus. If more than one baby has really settled in your tummy, you need more careful observation from the medical profession.
