Im back wit photos and 1 healthy baby - fingers crossed things dont change in next 4 weeks
Well Im back from the private scan and the babies have swapped over. What was the non HB baby in the big sac last time is now a healthy 13.8mm fetus with a good heartbeat and the baby that did have the HB that was in the smaller sac and was measuring 5 weeks has now shrunk to 3.6mm with no HB so she thinks by 12 weeks it will have vanished completely but she says the other looks healthy and the size of the sacs at the NHS scan were probably a good indication that things would turn out this way and the tech probably didnt want to tell me incase this one didnt develop and i came away with nothing. Luckily though we have 1 fighter. I couldnt help but notice though that this baby according to RAMZIs method is the boy and its the girl we have lost though i couldnt believe i was thinking that when infact Im just super grateful we have 1 healthy baby and i thank my lucky stars for that so i know i wont be upset if it is infact a little boy that has made it through.
Hubby is relieved - i think he was really worried about twins - as was my mum
Me - Im a little gutted but am so pleased we didnt loose both and reading how common vanishing twin syndrome is ( up to 80 % of ) has really helped.
Anyway now for some photos. The report with babies sizes ,,,,,,

Honey I'm sorry you lost one of your babies but glad at the same time that the other one seems healthy Hope everything will be ok with him/her. Don't give too much importance on Ramzi's theory and remember that usually girls are stronger than boys, so it might be the girl who have survived Good luck sweetie, hope all goes well for your little one!

Our family is now complete - no more babies for us. We didn't get our girl but I wouldn't trade my boys for the world, so in love.

sorry to hear about the other twin, but glad you have one thriving in there
the Ramzi theory didn't apply to twins, it was done with singletons

Thanks ladies
dreaming / rainbow flower i didnt know that about Ramzi but i did read that most fraternal twins are Boy girl sow ould be sods law it was the girl we have lost. I also didnt know girls were stronger than boys and whether true or not ill hold onto that for some hope !! ha ha

so glad to hear that your bean is okay! I'm sorry about the other twin. Looks like a great u/s photo--very clear.
I wouldn't worry too much about Ramzi's theory--I've had two recent early u/s that showed implantation on the left, both singleton pregnancies. One turned out to be a boy (chromosomally abnormal) and one was a girl (my recent loss). Ramzi might be right more than 50% of the time, but if so, I bet it's not a lot more than 50% of the time.
You had a great sway, and might well have had GG twins in there at the start. Don't lose hope that you're still carrying an XX.
