hi nan!!
long time!! im not working. and doc coulnt tell if my twiins were identical or not. he wil have to see the placenta after birth to confirm. but he is expecting that they are non identical. both are boys. do u know wot u r expecting? sex? identical or non identical?
i need to ask u something. when did u start feeling baby movements? im 20 weeks and 3 days and still feel no movements at all. and people keep telling me my tummy is small for 4 and a half months. and for twins...i guess its too small. that makes me worried. though my u/s showed everything is normal.
do let me know bout the baby movements. my doc says i may not feel them in full force bcoz twins have less space to move inside.
take care,
love,
pari.

Nice to hear from u. Hope u n ur babies are doing well :-) I'm expecting identical twins (sharing same placenta/ single egg twins). We can not determine the sex of the babies, as it's illegal in India. It'll be a surprise for us.
Regarding baby movements, started feeling light flutterings from 18th week onwards. I'm 24 weeks 4 days now. But no need to worry for u, if u find no movements till 26 th week then it's a concern contact ur doc. As ur doc says, the movements are very less due to less space in tummy for twins. And regarding size of tummy, it all depends on one's body structure. As I'm very lean n tall my bump is looking slightly big. All that matters is the growth of babies. I'm going for ultrasound scans every 4 weeks. Last tuesday I had the scan and everything is normal.
Eat well n drink lots of fluids. You'll certainly feel baby movements soon. My best wishes for u.

Take care,
-Nan
