Intro....and still in shock

Hi everyone.  I just found out I was pregnant last week, saw one heartbeat, everything looked good.  Had another u/s today because I had so many fertility issues getting pregnant he wanted to see me again.....and SURPRISE! Two babies.  I am in shock.....excited, but scared as hell.

The other thing freaking me out is that at this point he didn't see a membrane between the babies, meaning possibly one sac.  But he said it may be too early to see it.  Did anyone else have this happen in the beginning?

    Pretty much this! Mine are ID and we didn't see their membrane until a bit later on. Congrats!

  • Congrats and welcome!  Mine are ID, but I never had a really early u/s.  We could barely see the membrane at 10+ weeks.  I think it's pretty common, so try not to stress and enjoy the "twin shock"!
  • Congrats & Welcome!  Yes, it is shocking, exciting, and scary all it one.  They saw two sacs for me, so no advice there.  I hope everything works out great for you.

    Congrats and welcome!  It took me a good week or so to recover from serious shock - I actually have no memory of driving home from the u/s appt. :)

    We didn't see a membrane until 12 weeks despite u/s every two weeks from 6 weeks on so don't worry yet.  Some ladies on this board have seen it even later - the odds are on your side that you'll find one.

    I don't have any advice on the membrane.  I don't recall whether they saw it or not at 8 weeks, but definitely at 12.
