9 weeks pregnant with twins but slow developing sacs

Hi all.
Just wondering if anyone has been or knows of anyone who has been in a similar situation.

I should be 9 weeks 4 days if I go from the 1st date of my last period. 5 weeks in I had a lot of brown discharge and intense cramping left side of my groin that persisted for 6 days. I went to the EDU for an emergency scan which didn’t show anything, they later called me to say my HCG levels were 227 so that indicated a miscarriage. They asked me to return in one week to reassess levels and that had increased to over 2,000 again I had another scan which again didn’t show anything. They then said they couldn’t rule of an ectopic. Then went back 4 days later to review bloods, and they had increased again. I was asked to go back for again which then showed 2 small gestational sacs. 10 days later went back again which showed a yolk sac in one and not in the other. I then back 2 days ago which showed a yolk sac in both but overall the gestational sacs haven't grown hugely but they have grown slightly.

The nurse has advised it’s likely an unviable pregnancy, but it doesn’t make sense why I’ve had progression in growth each week.
Do you think there is still hope?

I went through similar but it was one sac. I eventually miscarried... for me slow growth wasn't good news.
It looks like you are well looked after though so I would trust the care provider to know better.
Hope you have a better outcome x
