Intro and Question re: Early U/S

Hi there - My name is Angela and I've been lurking for about a week. I am active on the IF board and slowly posting on PAIF. I underwent my first IVF at the end of June and we transferred 2 5day blasts. I was SURE they both took and that there were twins. Call it intuition, idk, but I had that feeling.
I had my first u/s today at 6w3d and not only did we find 2 sacs but we found a 3rd. I was so excited until the dr and sonographer looked concerned. In the end we only found 1 heartbeart today. I'm praying that maybe there is a chance the other embryo was a late implanter and that there is still hope. I was in so much shock while at the appointment I couldn't even ask questions.
I realized today, how attached I am to these 3 little beans and how much love i already have for them. I also feel guilty for feeling so much sadness while I do have 1 healthy heartbeat to be thankful for. I expected today to be filled with hope not more questions.
Has anyone else been through this? Has anyone else had a good outcome with a situation such as this? Could it just be a little early?

My next u/s is next Friday, 8/2. I was so happy going in to the RE today, but although I was prepared for the possibility (altho i strongly believed there were twins) that there may only be one baby, I was NOT prepared for 2 additional sacs. I figured either embryo #2 stuck or didn't stick. The option of sticking and having this happen was not on my radar let alone splitting. Part of me feels silly for being hopeful, but I suppose if I don't believe in these little ones, who will. I'm their mother whether or not they survive.
Thanks again and please pray for us. Your support means so much to me. It is very special when you realize how many great people are in this world when strangers can show love, care, and concern for you and your babies. I can't thank you all enough.
If it is any consolation I am going through the exact same thing. Had u/s at 6 weeks 3 days. One twin looks great with a heartbeat, the other is slightly behind with no heartbeat ; follow-up is 8/1. I wish you all the best and had the same reaction as you to the news
