In modern society, every family hopes to have a pair of twins at once, so that they can have two treasures and two children at once. Many people hope to have a pair of twins, and many women already know they are pregnant soon after. So, what are the signs of a twin pregnancy?
Higher progesterone and HCG values
If a pregnant woman gives birth to twins, the progesterone and HCG values are higher than those of a single pregnancy. However, the pregnant mother cannot feel it through her own feelings and must go to the hospital for examination by a doctor to determine.
The abdomen is more swollen
If a woman is pregnant with twins, then it is twins, and the pregnant woman's abdominal bulge will be larger than that of a singleton, and the growth rate of the belly will be faster. Especially after 24 weeks of pregnancy, the pregnant woman's belly is significantly larger than that of a single pregnancy, and of course, there may also be multiple pregnancies.
Early pregnancy reactions are more intense
Mothers who are pregnant with twins have more severe pregnancy reactions in the early stages of pregnancy, which is more difficult and painful compared to single mothers.
Hearing the heart sounds of two fetuses
If a pregnant woman is carrying twins, when she goes to the hospital for examination, she can hear the heartbeats of both fetuses, and through imaging examination, both fetuses can be detected, and the heads and buttocks of both fetuses can be touched. If ultrasound is used for examination, it can clearly identify two fetuses.
