So exciting! I love seeing all these ultrasounds. I can't wait for mine next week! Ever single time I have an ultrasound or Doppler with every single pregnancy I ask if there is still only 1! When my mom was born, they didn't even know there were 2 babies until my aunt started coming out and my grandpa passed out right in the hallway 🤣
This picture is terrible, but here are the two tiny blobs with HBs. We will go in again on Thursday to see if they are growing. Top twin measured 6w2d, bottom 6w, they are 6w5d (single PGT normal embryo transfer so we know the date very firmly). The dr thinks they are mo/di meaning they share a placenta but each have a sack (he saw two yolk sacks).
Got my first ultrasound today and I'm as pleased as punch! It's beginning to really feel real. Fetus is measuring perfectly at 9 weeks (I'm 9 weeks today). Heart rate was not specifically recorded, but is fluttering strong as it should be 💖
Finally!!! We got to see our little “tater tot” today!! ❤️ Baby was moving and wiggling around like crazy, measuring right at 3 cm at 9 weeks 4 days (exactly how far along I am), and heartbeat at a whopping 176 bpm. We could actually see the heart flutters!!! And the punches and kicks!!!! I can tell already my bladder will get a beating in the 3rd trimester. 😅 I can’t even express my gratitude and relief to see and hear a perfectly healthy little baby in there. 🥰
Went in for an elective US today and saw the baby moving and heart beating it was so nice! She said it looks like I may have an anterior placenta so I may not feel it for a while. Still, everything looks great!
We had another u/s today. The only pic I got shows just Baby 1 (Baby 2 is to the left and down, you can see the outline of the sac). Both babies have HBs, Baby 1 was at between 135-140, Baby 2 was at 105. I am 7w5d today, baby 1 is measuring 7w, Baby 2 is measuring 6w5d (they both did 5 days worth of growing in 7 days. Will have another u/s next week and confirmed if both continue to develop we will see my OB and a high-risk dr.

Things are still pretty uncertain for both twins. Baby 1 has a better outlook because of HR but they are worried that something could be wrong with both if something is wrong with one since they are identical and seem to be sharing a placenta. Baby 2 also has a big yolk sac which is another risk factor. The only thing we have going for us is the embryo they both came from was PGT tested so at some point they did have the right number of chromosomes.
Honestly I was really hoping it was twins haha but didn’t expect it to actually be the case!! Definitely explains why my fatigue and nausea are SO much worse than previous pregnancies. But I definitely cried tears of joy as soon as I realized there were two! Both are in their own sacs and measuring 9+3 with heartbeats around 170.
Congrats lady! I have twin girls that are 8 years old now. It has been quite the experience. You are in for an exciting ride
I had my first u/s today!!! Baby wiggling so cute! Baby measured 9w3d, which puts us a few days ahead than anticipated. Heartbeat flickering perfectly. The printer was not working so I didn’t get a pic! Oh well, baby #3 here we go! next-NT scan at 12 weeks.

Tada! I feel like I’m the last one to the ultrasound party 😂 7w4d just like we thought. I’ve been referred to a specialist for progesterone since my first was a preemie but otherwise everything is normal.
@aloha_mama definitely not the last one. I don't even have my scheduled yet. I have my MW appointment next week and she will give me the requisition to book it then.
Had a third ultrasound today at the RE’s office. Both twins looked GREAT! They had grown incredibly, today at 8w4d Baby A was measuring 8w3d and Baby B was just a bit smaller (last week they were 5 and 7 days behind respectively). They had strong HB’s (166 and 145, A and B respectively). Baby B still has a weirdly large yolk sac but we’re hoping it’s just some fluke thing. Graduated from the RE and I have an OB appt next week and then will probably start with an MFM after that.

Today's scan at 7+3 was a bit better than last week. Only measuring 1-2 days behind now and HR up to 149! 🤞🤞🤞
