how do you know if you are pergnant with twins?

When you have an ultrasound to confirm it.
My OB gave me one very early, as I had such horrible morning sickness. And, I had all the statistics of twins. (Twins run in the family, I'm just over the age of 30 with previous pregnancies, etc.)
Other signs of twins are that you're measuring bigger than for a singleton pregnancy (which could just mean a bigger baby too), HcG levels are higher than normal (which can be normal for you too), you're more tired this time around than other pregnancies (lots of things go into effect here), and doc heard 2 heartbeats (could also be an echo).
But, with all the signs - a good OB will see them, and order an ultrasound to confirm. Anyone under the 12 week mark of pregnancy should also educate themselves on Vanishing Twin Syndrome, as this also can happen prior to the 12th week in pregnancy.

several ways but, most often by early ultersound sometimes around 12 - 14 weeks the doc will hear 2 heartbeats, OR you will be measuring big for fetal age a ultersound will be done to check stuff out if it's suspected.

Go to the obstetrician or.....
You should start showing a lot sooner than a single pregnancy.
