Could I be having twins??

I can't shake this feeling that i might be having twins. I'm only 7 weeks 5 days pregnant on my first child and already i'm showing. None of my trousers fit anymore and its getting harder to cover up this tummy from people in work. I found out i was pregnant even before i missed my period and a few days before i found out i had a dream i was having twins. Since then i just have this feeling. But twins do not run in my family. Also I've had no morning sickness at all, some dizziness and extreme fatigue but i haven't been physically sick. I reckon i'd have more symptoms if it was twins, right?? My Mam said she never had morning sickness on any of her children so maybe i just take after her and am lucky.

When i told my mother in law my suspicions she told me she went to a physic a couple of years ago and was told that one of her children would have twins. His sister is preganant with her 3rd child, it’s not twins and she is definitely not having anymore after this. His other sister has one child and unfortunately cannot have anymore so that just leaves us. I don’t usually believe in this crap but now I’m getting a little freaked out lol

When I was very early pregnant I was showing too and was kind of freaking about the possibility of twins, turns out I was just bloated! I've only got 1 coming and I so can not wait to hold my little girl!!! The only sure way to know if you are having twins will be when you have your ultra sound! Good luck honey!!

My husband is a twin so I had the fear of that happening. he is a twin, his mom is a twin, his grandma is a twin... it's not skipping.  So it was the first question I had at my firs u/s.  Thank goodness it is only 1!  

anywho, I know that my MIL said she told her dr it was twins but he said no its just 1 bigger baby.  He got a surprise at delivery, she said she knew the whole time. She didnt have any morning sickness or anything her only thing was that she said she was gaining double what a normal pregancy would every month.  They apparently didn't do u/s as much and it wasn't that long ago.  The only way your going to find out now is if you get an u/s.

Thanks for the reply...

Either way will do for me, i was trying to get pregnant for over a year and half so I suppose 2 would be a bonus. Can't wait to have my first scan and find out. :)
