While pregnant I understand that your spouse may get this.. But would it increase if I were having muliples?? He sleeps twice as much and eats all day long it seems.. And its not normal or at least he didnt do these things when werent prego..

It's called couvade syndrome. You'll be able to find out if the doctor detects two heartbeats or you see two with the ultrasound. I wouldn't over-analyze everything at this point. You'll know before too long!

Size isn't always an indicator of multiple pregnancy. Everyone is different - so it may be for you. ;)

ultrasound is the only sure way to know.

Good luck!
