Early ultrasound at 5w 4d and nothing was said about it but the more i look the more i think i see another sac? Ive had severe vomiting and nausea which i didnt have with my other 2 children and am on anti sickness tablets and also tested positive with a super dark line 6 days before my period was due so it does make me wonder.. tia

Was this NHS or private?

The dark area could be a haematoma, would have expected them to mention that but then again would also expect them to comment on a potential second sac!

No it doesn't look like a sac at all.

It was a private scan

Honestly OP I am no expert but my private 6w scan with twins was much clearer than that.

This is the original scan picture. I don't know if I am imagining seeing things but a few family members have said that they see more than 1 too

They’d tell you.

Whataretheodds · 04/07/2023 17:19

It's not the same shape as the sac at all, though.

Rtmhwales · 04/07/2023 17:24

Doesn't look at all like twins based on my previous twin pregnancy or what I saw online while researching it.

Marylou62 · 04/07/2023 17:24

I've seen a few scans of twins/triplets etc..
It doesn't look like the dark shape you highlighted is a pregnancy sac...it would look exactly the same as the viable one...
I had a suspected twin pregnancy 30+ years ago with a bleed and she pointed out a darker shadow and said that could have been a very early implantation which has not progressed..
But I'm almost certain that the scanner would have told you if they suspected it...

I don't think that void is even within your uterus tbh.

Hurlywhirly · 04/07/2023 17:53

No, my twins were closer together and clearer than that

Skinthin · 04/07/2023 17:57

No that definitely doesn’t look like a sac.
also The sonographer would have told you if there was another sac

MojoJojo71 · 04/07/2023 18:07

No, it doesn’t look like more than one sac. The area you have circled isn’t as well defined or hyooechoic ( dark) as a gestation sac and doesn’t demonstrate a double decidual reaction (the white ring around the dark part) which is another ultrasonic feature of a gestation sac. As another poster pointed out, it is also outside your uterus.

A possible subchorionic hematoma.

alittleadvicepls · 04/07/2023 21:47

Defo just one sac in there OP sorry

InceyWinceySpidy · 04/07/2023 21:53

Nope, my twins were very clear separate sacs, like your first.

eandz13 · 04/07/2023 22:02

Magicbean5 · 04/07/2023 21:32

A possible subchorionic hematoma.

I think this too.

Emmamoo89 · 04/07/2023 22:03

Nope just one

Eh1112 · 04/07/2023 22:16

Agree with possible sub chorionic hematoma

TeaKitten · 04/07/2023 22:18

Doesn’t look like twins, and they’d have told you if there were two.

Sissynova · 05/07/2023 11:28

I would trust the sonographer over random unqualified family members.

Babygirl1422 · 01/03/2025 19:03

I would start a completely new thread as maybe people haven't seen it as it's on the end of someone else's post..
I only saw it as I was following the original post.
And sorry I have no advice for you but hope you get answers.

Isn’t that your bladder @Cindyyy ??
I‘ve had two twin pregnancies and neither looked like that. It’s one embryo and something else. Not twins for sure.
