Good, Bad and some rather shocking news from me today.

Wow mum23, twins.
I hope your babies are both ok when you get your next scan

[NearlyDone]

Good luck hope you hve 2 strong healthy heartbeats next time

They dont do HCG Blood test levels here in the uk i dont think - ive never had it anyway - they pretty much leave you to your own devices until 12 weeks so even getting this early scan was a shock they must have been having a quiet day !!

I think they must have just started them as I had them in July at Medway hospital. Maybe ask your midwife about them - they don't sound that helpful - hope you get your mind put at rest soon

Wow thats alot to take in!! Like the others have said the heartbeat is a fantastic sign - I know the chances of miscarriage reduce significantly once the heart begins to beat.

From a medical point of view - I would say that by 7 weeks the heart should be beating on both babies, so if you are sure of your dates I would think that the other sac could be a vanishing twin or possibly an early miscarriage.

Fingers crossed for you - I would also go into A&E if you are worried and they will most likley do a scan given your history xx

Hope everything turns out okay for you mum. Yes, we all agree, that they should help you through this and let you have the tests that you need to give you the reassurance you need.

Oh wowzers! 2 sacs! That's amazing.... I'm crossing it all for you that the second one was just hiding, or a little small to see. Beat down their doors until someone sees you... Good luck xoxo

I can understand waiting until Jan. becasue you want to give them time to grow. Sometimes these early scans are just heartbreaking because you find out something you might never have known,never worried or cried over. I hope in Jan they find 2 healthy neating hearts and you can laugh over the worry they caused you later. Pregnancy is soo soo stressful. I sent out xmas calendar w/ the news to mil and I am kickng myslef thinking "is it too soon?" as I never ever tell this early. Hugs for the worry. Glad your hubs is by your side even if he takes it all differently might just be his defense mechanism
