here is a pic of my u/s last week i was 9w3d (baby meas 9w1d).
my question is to those having twins; how does the gest sac compare to yours? the sac looks funny compared to my sons and I swear during the u/s there was a 2nd umbilical cord, and if you look at the pic you can see it going right along the babys head with a little blob attached to it. i did ask the dr but he said there was just one. but he moved fast and didnt take ver long to look, i barely got to see the heart beat!
now twins do not run in my family (i do have a set of fraturnal twin half sisters via a step mom). but identicals are just a fluke, so what do you all think?
now the dr could have seen a twin that wasnt developing and decided not to tell me (as i have a history of miscarrage) to save my feelings. it just looks so funny to me.

With my twins I had one ultrasound at 8 weeks. And I remember thinking "That looks FUNNY." It's hard to explain. There was one sack, but the baby blob looked different than it had it my previous pregnancies. It looked like a peanut ... difinetly TWO blobs, but still either really close or connected. My Dr said one blob was the baby's head and the other was the the butt/lower part of the body. Whatever.
I didn't find out for sure that it was twins until I was almost 7 months, because that was when I had my second ultrasound.
I'm no expert on reading ultrasounds, I would just wait until next month and see if there are any changes. Tell you dr you concern and talk about it.
