Our 2nd ultrasound was scheduled for Tuesday November 9th at 7:45pm; however, on Sunday the 7th DP woke up with some slight bleeding. Needless to say our hearts were crushed...we thought for sure she was having a miscarriage. So we call the Dr. to see if we could have an emergency ultrasound. They took us at 9:45am the next morning.
So the second ultrasound was done on November 8, 2010 @ the beginning of the 7th week. As we held our breathe and crossed our fingers, the doctor inserted the ultrasound. My mind was racing as of course I thought only the worst. Oh was I surprised! We actually found a second sac...meaning TWINS!
Unfortunately, the development of baby B was 1 week behind and the Dr. wasn't able to get a heartbeat. At that point, the Dr. said it was probably a sign that pregnancy B wasn't going well and she might miscarry. He mentioned that the bleeding was probably due to baby B and not to worry about baby A.
The good news was that Baby A was doing very well. It grew to 9.29 mm and the heart rate was 133 BPM.
The Dr. also said that miscarrying Baby B would not affect baby A...we were relieved.
Later that night DP had some more bleeding and it was more than the first time. We had to wait 3 days till the next ultrasound.
