Hi

Yes it probably is your uterus, mine was about there are 21 weeks and I've had some bad stretching pains, just to warn you my stretchy pains have spread to my ribs! I also get sore spots where the babies press up against the uterus wall too, so the hard sore bits could be babies! I've have found this twin pregnancy far more un comfy than a single, and the rate I am growing is unbelievable, but I am sure it is all normal! As for stretch marks, just learn to love them they will fade in time and cover yourself in as much bio oil or cocoa butter as possible!

If you are worried juts go and see your mid wife I'm sure she will put your mind at rest

Hi Becky, are your twins sharing a placenta or do they have one each...you've probably said but my forgetful pregnant head can't remember!

As you're babies grow it gets harder to tell how many placentas there are. I just wondered as I've been told to watch out for signs of Twin to Twin Transfusion Syndrome as they know I only have one placenta. The symptoms to look out for are tightening of the tummy, abdominal pain and rapid bump growth. I might be worth asking about it at your scan next week but if you're babies have been measuring pretty much the same in size so far then it's unlikely that it's TTTS.

I really am not sure to be honest - I remember when I went for a scan just before my little ones were born that I was measuring 38 weeks (and was only just 25)!
