First pregnancy & it’s twins!

Hello I just found out today that I’m pregnant with twins! I’m so shocked and overwhelmed. I had an ultrasound around 3 weeks ago that showed only 1 yolk sac baby.
For my peace of mind I went to an ultrasound clinic today and not only did I see & hear babies heartbeat but now there’s 2 babies!!!!!!

I’m confused how my doctor missed the second baby, and I think I need to find a new doctor.

I need advice & tips, I’m very excited but also very scared.

This is my first ever pregnancy & I just so happened to get twins 🥺

I did have a dream a few weeks ago about having twins but I didn’t think my dream would come true 😭

Congratulations 🎉 👏

Omg this was me 2 weeks ago! And it was exactly the same - very early on they could only see one sack, and then in the most recent scan at 7 weeks there were two heartbeats! As far as I understand it’s very common to not see both in early scans.

I have no advice, because it’s also my first pregnancy, and I think I’m still partially in shock tbh. Just wanted to say “me too” and hope you don’t feel alone in it 🤍

How far along are you and do you know what kind they are? We’re still waiting to find out, but we were told that it’s a very high chance that they are identical 😳 I still can’t quite wrap my head around the whole thing.

It’s very common to miss a twin pregnancy in early scans. Very difficult to get a good image. I wouldn’t doubt your doctor over it

Baby B could have been behind Baby A. Early scans can miss Baby B. I was 8weeks and both babies showed.

Congratulations 🎊🎈🎉

Congratulations that’s amazing news!

I’m 23 weeks pregnant with my First baby boy, I have been feeling him move but I haven’t felt him for 24 hours, do I go get looked at or is this normal?

C section tomorrow

I have my c section scheduled for tomorrow. I’m scared and excited at the same time. I don’t know if I’m missing anything to do before the operation.

Emergency c section PTSD??

I had an emergency c section in January of 2025 with my first baby boy and am now going to have a scheduled c section with my second baby boy in February of 2027 due to my hospital not doing VBACs. I originally wasn’t worried because I knew it was coming this time and I know what to expect. But now that I’m 6 months pregnant I’m scared again. The recovery was rough for me and now worrying about being there for my 2 year old is causing a lot of mom guilt I think. Any moms out there that have any advice or reassurance would be greatly appreciated 😅.
