Expecting! ULTRASOUND PIC INCLUDED*

in 1st Trimester

Hi, everyone! I am new to The Bump & happy to be here! I have recently found out that I am expecting and we are very, very excited!! My OB is very supportative and she's excellent. However, my husband and I (both first time parents!) were a bit concerned. The U/S tech who performed my ultrasound was a student. She said that she "believes there is one embroyo, but it seems there could be a smaller embroyo hiding behind/to the right of the confirmed embroyo.  Being that I am a fraternal twin myself, my doctor has order an additional ultrasound late next week to be sure. I am not sure why this would undetectable at this point? Is this normal, Moms?

US2 

Anywhoo,  I am very excited to be expecting and look forward to learning for you all. Thanks for looking!

    Twins aren't heriditary... It's a freak thing that happens... But in my last pregnancy you couldn't see both on my first ultrasound either.

    It seemed like just one little bean in there to me, but after posting the u/s here & hearing what my doctor's office had to say, I have sort of been staring at the first picture, lol. If you look really, really long and hard, I think
