Twins- are you pregnant with them?
I wasnt sure where to post this, but I had a doctors appt yesterday and I was discussing how since I had taken a pregnancy test only 2 days after the day my period was due. It was very dark, to me indicating high levels of HPK possibly and that could mean twins. I was getting my blood pressure taken and Im sure it shot up when she replied "Well, youre 34 now, and the chances go up as you get older, even if you dont have any family history." I honestly didnt know that. How many mamas here are around my age and pregnant with multiples w/o fertility drugs or family history?
I wont know for a bit, as they are sending me to a hospital for an in depth ultrasound and blood testing for genetic issues, since I am the mother of two special needs children already. I thought they were going to do one there, but I guess things have changed since my last baby 6 years ago. We did hear the heart beat of at least one, but Im a tad early so we lucked out.
