    i think with all the different datings is the measurements they get so try not too be too worried n there is a heartbeat sooo yayyyyy!!!
    as for the other sak im not sure i know with my ds1 he was a twin n i had an us at 12 weeks n by 32 weeks i didnt know there was another one in there till i was told he had passed..
    some can hide and some can be overshadowed so maybe there could be a viable one but just not clear n too early too see... fingers x'd
    but good luck hun n the way this yr has flown 2 weeks will be over b4 u know it
    keep us updated pls...

    Thanks again for the replys, i still dont know what to make of it, my gf who just had twins said it sounds like i lost a twin.
    I looked at my us films and she only took one pic of both sacs together and they almost look identical just 1 has a baby, but then she has a pic of this weird wiggle, and the report was so vauge.

    I know its only a few weeks, but the wait is ging to drive me insane, i hate being in limbo

    I got no sleep last night, i know i should concentrate on the baby that has a heart beat and i am, but i cant help but wonder what is going on, what the sac is, and if it is bleeding when its going to come out!

    I had this too hun! Mine was a haematoma (bleed) and sorted itself out between 6 and 9 weeks pregnant... They said it would either bleed out the usual way or 'absorb' itself. I never had a bleed but by my 9 week us it was gone... I hope your is a twin though! Much more exciting! Congratulations by the way! So happy for you! xox

    I have had a couple of friends who have had fraternal (non-identical) twins in the last year and they were both told that they could have conceived their twins up to a week and a half apart. Because you have to release 2 eggs in the case of fraternal twins, from what I gathered, it would be possible to ovulate twice a few days apart. That would mean that if what the sonographer saw was a baby, it might have just been because you ovulated a second time and/or it implanted later. I would think that not all embryos implant at the exact same time either, even if your body did make 2 eggs. I think it is still possible that you have a viable (such an awful word isn't it) second baby in there but you'll have to wait it out to see.

    I really hope that it is any of the other alternatives to an empty sac. You so deserve this pregnancy and I don't want anything to rain on your parade . I hope the next week or two pass quickly so you can get some answers.

    Just thought id update everyone on my rescan...

    It apears i have a hemorage near the baby, as neither scan gave the size of the hemorage, we dont know if it has increased or decreased in size, but we do know that it hasnt disapeared since the first scan 17 days ago, dr has put me on bed rest as much as possiable, as i had spotting this morning, i had blood tests and will need a follow up scan next week.

    Anila - all the best hun, hope you don't go too batty on the bed rest - it's really hard, remember that you're doing something no-one else can....

    Thanks for the update, hope all goes well at next week's scan.
