I've got twins in my family too (Mum & Dad;s side).
So being bloated is a sign of twins??? What other differences have you noticed?

Hi to you all! I 've found a new doctors who got me a new patient appointment with a nurse (who is also a midwife). Feel much better after the appointment and everything is now a lot clearer (especially thanks to the comments taht you ALL made).
Love 'n' hugs to you all and speak to you soon

having worries and concerns is unfortunately something that plagues us all at some point- which is why we like to come on here to ask questions or have a good old moan! try to relax and enjoy your pregnancy and don't let others try and spoil it for you- no matter who they are! i was other way round- gp was great but midwife was a nightmare! speak to a diff dr if you're still worried but think you'll be ok- keep us updated? xx

I'm only 5 weeks at the moment and nnot told the doctor yet. But so far it has been completly different to me other two pregnancies. Getting a little worried as twins are on both sides of the family and i've bloated already. Can't wait for a scan to stop my worrying.

First of all congratulations!!!! Think your GP is very unprofessional. Yes pregnancy can end in miscarriage but it can lead to a healthy pregnancy as mine both did. You should get to see your midwife before 20 weeks as there are blood tests to do. I would get on the phone tomorrow, direct to the midwife if needs be. I had period type pains before I was pregnant with my second daughter but did a test because I was late. Where I live you had to go to a specified chemist to have it confirmed then take the slip of paper to the doctor's surgery then the midwife phoned you. My midwife was lovely. I had a homebirth and it was really lucky my midwife was on call when I went into labour and she delivered my second daughter. We got on so well and I went up to see her last week on my daughters first birthday. Hope you're feeling a bit more positive. Forget what your GP said, there's no reason why you won't have a happy and healthy pregnancy. Good luck x
P.s sorry to go on and on!!!!!

hi hun,i have 6 children and i am expecting my 7th baby around end of may,beginning of june.i have had loads of opinions and critacisms during all pregnancies regarding the same worries and fears and gotten confusing answers.i still seek advice now an then from my midwife,i tend to let my maternal instincts guide me now.add me to your friends if you would like to chat.xxx

Congrats to u first on your good news!

Im sorry to hear that your GP wasnt very supportive when this is meant to be the most exciting time in your life... also, i cannot understand why you are being referred to a midwife at 20wks when it is usually between 10-12weeks....if i was you i would book an appointment with another GP at d practice to get a 2nd opinion, see what he/she has to say... best of luck and let us kno how u get on - take care x
