How exciting! Its rare but on occasion one will hide behind the other and nt be seen on sonogram. I'm surprised you made it to 20 weeks without anyone noticing but hey things happen! I had a friend who was born and two minutes later her twin was born and her mom didn't know it was twins! lol At least you got a little bit of a heads up!

Yes, I've heard about that before(as the above poster said), one baby is directly behind the other and isn't seen for a while. Congrats! I bet it's scary, but how exciting!!!!

Aww, Congrats!!! It happens, sometimes one baby is hidden behind the other. And maybe their heartbeats are running the same beat. Im jealous. I want twins in the future. Now you get to buy two of everything!!!

Actually, sort of the same thing happened to me. The babies both showed up on the first ultrasound, but it was a HUGE surprise to both of us, given that this was my first pregnancy, I had not taken fertility treatments, and there are no twins or any other multiples in either side of the family. I remember riding home from the appointment saying over and over, "This is RIDICULOUS!" I mean, we knew we wanted two children, we just didn't know they were going to come at the same time... We finally concluded that twins have to start somewhere in every family, and this is where they start in ours. They are fraternal too, by the way. Get ready for some chaos! Mine are 6 now, and usually run in different directions. They will run you ragged.

Someone who is in the due in December group with me had that happen to her with her first pregnancy. My husband has a twin and it was just like the first post said, he came first and a couple minutes later his mom started delivering the placenta and quickly realized there was a whole other baby in there! lol
