Early + question.

post #1 of 2
Thread Starter 
I find myself here again after 2"+" dollar store test. They were +, 9 days before my missed period, and my periods have been like clock work. So, my question is could this be twins? Anybody who had twins test + early? None of my previous pregnancies I haven't tested + this early. I havent been to dr yet, so I am sure they will do an ultrasound, but I am curious! Oh, and still haven't decided when or how to tell dh! Lol

Congratulations!!  What day do you ovulate on?  That's what will matter, rather than you periods.  If you ovulated even just a few days earlier this time, it could make all the difference!! 

 

I have tested + at 8/9 DPO (about 8 days before my period) with 7 of my 10 pregnancies.  This time I was likely 9 DPO and got a BLARINGLY + test (like, the average 13 DPO test for me), so we'll see.  But we've suspected twins with 3 of my pregnancies and it's only been one each time!  As far as I know, early on hCG is generally about the same whether you are carrying a singleton or multiples, and it's shortly after that that you can begin to tell the difference based on levels.

 

The other thing I tended to noticed when searching twin pregnancy test experiences was that (and again, this is just a trend I noticed) it seemed like women pg with multiples almost took LONGER to test positive, or had weaker positives for a while...stuff like that, that seems like it should be the opposite.  But it surprised me, nonetheless!
