Pregnancy After Stopping the Pill Posted: 05-26-05 10:25am
Hello! I am 9 weeks pregnant and I found
out I was pregnant when I was 3 weeks. I
got pregnant 2 weeks after stopping my
birth control pills and started to show at
4-5 weeks. This is my third pregnancy and
my first was a miscarriage. I look as if
I were at least 4 months pregnant right
now. But I read that concieving within
the first month after stopping
birthcontrol can increase your chances of
having twims by 50%. Is this true??? And
how common is it to happen? Twins don't
run in my family but there are 4 sets of
twins in my husbands family. I just have
a gut feeling that something is a little
different with this pregnancy. I am in
bed exhausted and nauseated more then I am
up during the day. It is worse then both
previous pregnancies. What are the odds
that I would be pregnant with twins
considering the above??? I go for my
first Dr. Appt next friday so I am just
curious as to what signs I should look
for. Thanks to anyone who can be of some
help! :lol:

Im not quite sure if you would start to
show that early, with or without twins.
Ask your doctor to do an ultrasound and
make sure that you are not experiencing an
eptopic pregnancy. This type of pregnancy
may cause your stomach to swell, which may
be the reason you think you are showing.
Please let us know when you find out.
