Ultrasound showed one twin smaller

I will be 12 weeks on Friday and had my first ultrasound last Thursday and found out I am having twins. The doctor called me yesterday and said one of the twins looks smaller and I could possibly lose it. I have to go back the 28th for another ultrasound. Has anyone ever had this happen or heard of this? I am going crazy waiting for next Thursday to get here :

  • Just wanted to say I'm thinking about you. Hang in there. 
  • I have no advice but *hugs* and I hope they're both okay.

  • How much smaller? Did he indicate how they were measuring?

    At 7w0d, mine were measuring 6w5d and 5w5d. I was told that Baby A might not make it, but by my 10 w appointment she had caught up.

    Now, Baby A is a butterball who weighs a full lb

  • What were the actual measurements?  A few days different is probably within normal range.  Mine were usually a few days apart in size which didn't become a problem until later in pregnancy, but they are both healthy and thriving now.  Vanis
  • At 8 Weeks Twin B measured a few days behind. At 12 weeks B was a week or so behind. At 20 weeks he was about 2 weeks smaller I think. I have di/di twins and extreamly low risk all things considered. If your mobile I'll let you know I'm just shy 26 wee
