2 Sac’s on ultrasound at 6 weeks 4 days

[mummypeach2224]

Im 7 weeks and 5 days today. But I went into A&E a few weeks back with cramping and horrible stomach aches. I knew i was pregnant and was worried that it was possibly the start of a miscarriage or it might have just been celiac disease related but cause I have no clue of determining the difference I went to get checked.

Had a scan done and they find 2 sacs… but only one baby with a heartbeat. I’ve got to go back on the 10th February and I’ll be 8 weeks and 5 days. I’m so nervous cause I have no idea if they are going to find a second baby or if it’s just failed to develop into a pregnancy. They said it was too early to tell… just wondering if anyone else has had any experience similar to mine. I’m terrible with waiting and I’m so impatient, my mind is running through so many different things. I never got a photo of what they saw, but I got showed it on the monitor and it appeared to me that the second empty looking sac was bigger than the first.

I will also add I started showing around 5 weeks, this is my 4th pregnancy (I’ve had 1 miscarriage and have 2 beautiful children) so I know you show quicker the more pregnancies you have. But I felt like this pregnancy was different from the start, the nausea hit me quicker and it’s constant all day. My body just felt different. I feel like I felt deep down this pregnancy wasn’t the same as my last. My husband and best friend kept going “ooo it’s twins” and now I’m cursing them cause they’ve seen two sacs on my ultrasound. Now I know this doesn’t mean it could turn into a successful twin pregnancy. But curse them for talking this into existence😂

Hi, I had sort of this experience in my first pregnancy. At 5 weeks I had horrible cramping/squeezing feeling on and off for about an hour. Didn't think anything of it as didn't know any different. Went to early scan at 8 weeks and saw one baby with heartbeat and an early sac which they said looked like had stopped developing at 5 weeks. So I just assumed that had been what happened at 5 weeks. The 2Nd sac was then absorbed and not to be seen next scan.
That's just my experience though. I think it can be quite common and so a lot of people won't even know a second baby had been developing for a short time when they go for 12 week scan. Still affects you though and I hope you have a good outcome for your baby/potential babies 🙏🙏

once I’d told me mum she told me that her half sister actually experienced this with her two pregnancies that the second was just absorbed. With my two children I had early scans with them both so I’ve seen my pregnancies from pretty early on, around the 5/6 weeks mark with both and never seen a second sac so this is a first for me. My first pregnancy resulted in a miscarriage 2 days after I found out so I never got the chance to see what was going on with that one which is why I’ve gone for early scans with my other two pregnancies. Twins runs in my mother in laws family but I was always under the impression that wouldn’t affect my pregnancies but could be passed on to my daughter through her dads genetics.

I feel bad for replying but for me it wasn’t good news but I think the majority of people do get good news and that it is just too early to tell.

Went into A&E with brown bleeding and pain, 2 sacs one with Hb, went back 2 weeks later both babies with hb but slow and ended up losing the pregnancy at 9 weeks.

I’ve not had any bleeding yet which I’m taking as a good sign🤞🏻🙏🏻 I’m so sorry to hear you lost your babies. It’s always such a horrible experience.
