UpdatedUpdate but not really

Well I just left the hospital. Just my luck that as soon as I layed down on the table, the lights all started blinking and there was a fire alarm! Luckily it went off after 2 minutes and we didn't need to leave but at that point I was laughing about how comical this all is.

Anyway, The ultrasound tech was really really nice and the first thing she said was "so why does the Dr think you had a miscarriage?" So again, interesting that the dr communicated that to her. I explained the whole strange situation and she said she would try and get us some answers right away. She first did the external u/s and immediately saw the larger sac. She said that it was only measuring 5 weeks and a few days, had a yolk sac but no fetal pole. If that truly is from an earlier pregnancy, that isn't measuring correctly and wouldn't be viable. However it sort of measures on track with a pregnancy from the IUI but I'm thinking that isn't what it was from since last week it measure around the same an it wouldn't have been that large then. When we see the Dr this afternoon he can compare what he saw last week in size. Obviously if it didn't grow at all, it's non viable. She confirmed all of this when she did the internal ultrasound too.

Then she did see two small specks but she said they were very very small and its really too soon to see what they are. She couldn't really even say if they are sacs or not. He said they measured less than 4 weeks which wouldn't realt make sense with the IUI but I'm thinking if they implanted late they could be that small. She also said I should be having more bloodwork to see what is going on with my levels so I assume that will happen when I go in at 1.
Honestly this is still a huge roller coaster and I don't think I know much more than I did yesterday. I'm fairly certain I'm not having three babies but at this point I'm not even sure I'm having one. I hope to get a little more clarity after my 1 pm appt because my Dr can compare today's results to last weeks, which the ultrasound tech could not do.

sorry this is so long and I know it is confusing, my head is still spinning!!!

update after afternoon appt
Well my RE basically said he doesn't think I have any his le pregnancies. All three "areas" decreased in size from his sonogram last week. He said the larger/earlier pregnancy would def show a fetal pole or heartbeat by now. And he still can't even say if the other two areas are sacs or not because they are so small and they are smaller this week than last...they drew more blood today to see what levels are doing but I have a follow up ultrasound next Wednesday. I don't think all hope is lost but its not looking promising. I went from thinking I was maybe having three babies to probably none...bizarre....
