Question by Madison Taylor: Could I be pregnant with triplets?
I'm 15 and i found out i was pregnant almost 7 months ago. my boyfriend and i are keeping the babies (money and loving home is not an issue) We found out like a month 1/2 ago it was twins and I'm going into my doctor tomorrow and lately I've felt way more than two babies. Maybe I'm just being ridiculous but i swear i have been feeling more than 2 babies. I also feel different than i did when they said it was twins. Maybe I'm going mad i don't know just wondering if you can tell if its triplets i guess.

If what they saw in the ultra sound was just two then, your having just two!
What do you think? Answer below!
What you are feeling is two sets of hands, and two sets of feet moving around in there.
It’s pretty safe to assume you are not having triplets. Missing an entire baby via ultrasound is pretty darn rare.
It’s possible to that they may have missed a third baby BUT highly unlikely. Triplet pregnancies are very high risk. You would know by now if you are having triplets or not because (1) you will have a lot of contractions or PTL at seven months because by seven months your uterus has grown passed the “normal” size; (2) measurements that doctors take during your appointment such as fundal height would indicate a higher order multiple, for instance, when I was 22 weeks pregnant with my triplets I was measuring at 42 weeks.
It’s really hard to tell which baby is moving if you are having multiples. When I was pregnant with my triplets, especially towards the end, I could hardly tell which baby was moving because they were so squeezed inside.
If you are really curious, ask your doctor for another ultrasound.
