I’ve had a bit of an inkling the past couple of days….a bit of mommy intuition, I guess.   Maybe.

Or maybe I’m crazy.  That’s always possible, too.

But, I’ve had this feeling for several days now that I might be pregnant with twins. 

My uterus feels much more "full" and pronounced at this stage than it did with either Ben or Chloe.  And though I typically lose 10-15 lbs in the first trimester, I’m still hovering around my same weight, or up just a few pounds.  My pants already seem to be getting a bit snug as well.  Not tight at all, but just a little tiny bit less loose than before. 

Twins do run in my family, on my mom’s side. 

I know that everything I’m feeling can be easily explained away with other reasons, and I’m perfectly aware that the chances are I’ve not got more than one baby hanging out in there, but I just can’t shake the thought. 

I called my midwife this morning; my first appointment with her is in three weeks.  By then I’ll be 10+4wks and hopefully will be able to hear the heartbeat.  It’ll be hard to wait that long, but I’ll interested to see if the "feeling" goes away between now and then. 

I kind of hope it does, because seriously – I’ve got NO idea what I’d do with twins!
