AMG! I am having identical twins! 7w ultrasound inside!

Oh. My. Gosh. I never thought this would EVER happen. I went in for a vaginal ultrasound today. Ugh the first response I get from the u/s tech, "Do twins run in your family?" I said, "UH, NO! WHY?!" She said, "Well, there is TWO in there!" My boyfriend and I almost fainted. I cried from joy and being surprised. I feel like I won the lottery. Now it is so weird for the doctor to say, "Baby A and Baby B." So so so weird. I don't fit ANY categories to increase twins.

Last thing is, I think it is so weird before I knew I was having twins was conflicting cravings. I would whine to my boyfriend for weeks how I crave something. I eat it. I am like, "Ew this is so gross! I am going to throw up." But I need it and crave it. WAHHH! Hahahahaa

Wow! Congrats x 2!
Did you sway using Clomid at all?
:twins:

Congrats :). How exciting!

By the way it's great that you have 2 yoke sacks! That means that there will most probably be a separating membrane between them and that = lower risk :)

Nope no clomid :< Nothing. I wasn't TTC. I originally came here a couple years ago to sway for my son. Swaying pink but I had a son. I figure to sneak back now that I surprisingly got pregnant. Really really excited and scared (I have a lot of pregnancy problems with just one baby). If y'all want to know my diet or anything, I will help you ladies. I am planning to open up an online journal soon tonight.

Here is the first ultrasound at 5 weeks. Which is weird because the only saw one sack and one yolk. Attachment 27003

Congratulations! Twins have such a special bond! :celebrate:

Congrats! It's a huge shock! I am 18weeks pregnant with identical twins. And it's still hard to wrap my head around it. We are higher risk but with lots of monitoring everything should be fine!

Was your twins in one sac and two yolks?
To be honest I only saw one yolk from the previous u/s. I am so new at this!

Oh wow, what a huge surprise! How awesome would it be if this was your long awaited daughter times two! :D Wishing you a happy healthy pregnancy!

Oh wow, huge congrats, sushi! So exciting! I really hope DD is in there x

Cravings don't tell you if you're having twins or not.

Huge congrats!

Clomid doesn't up odds of identical twins, only fraternal. :)

Mine are Monochorionic Diamniotic (they share one placenta and they share the same outer membrane) They are separated by a very thin inner membrane.
So my early scans looked like yours, 2 babies in one outer sac.
2 yolk sacs (those are the little circles attached to the embryos early on) were seen in my scans, which does indicate they will probably be separated by a membrane which is what you are hoping for. My inner membrane didn't show till later scans.

I googled so much after I found out. It can be quite confusing.

How incredibly amazing!!!!! So happy for you! Twins are my dream!

Wow congratulations! I remember you from back when I was swaying :) congrats on your son and two new babies to come! How exciting! Wishing you the best of luck :) xx

So exciting! Congrats!
