In my opinion, it's mostly annoying because any research (that is legitimate research) says that while certain things can increase your chances of twins the ONLY way to know is an ultrasound. That's it... No HCG count, morning sickness is always subjective, and belly size in the 1st trimester is never because of the baby. So the "I think I'm having twins" post is just about getting attention. Ask any woman in this group, and I'm positive they'll tell you that having twins is one of the toughest things theyve ever gone through.
It's the same thing as girls who post in 1st Tri that they think they're pregnant two days after they're "sure" they ovulated. Yes, you have the right to post it, just as I have the right to roll my eyes. Everyone knows you can't find out you're pregnant that early, and everyone knows a pregnancy test, not a feeling, is the only way to know if you're pregnant.
You're allowed to post whatever you want wherever you want... But to me, the "I think I'm having twins" is just a way of saying, "I need more attention than just BEING pregnant". I personally didn't even post in the multiples section until I was 18 weeks or so...
Sorry if this came off rude, it's just my opinion.
