Excuse my absence, as it took me a few days to get over the shock, followed by tears of joy, followed by disbelief, followed by everything imaginable, after I saw this on the ultrasound screen:



Two tiny beating hearts. TWO. I still can't believe I'm writing this. I can't adequately express my feelings right now, so this will be brief, ladies.

I go back this Friday for measurements (my doc wasn't in that day), so I'll update this thread soon.

---------------
UPDATE

Well ladies, I'm just back from the doc and I don't have very good news.

4 days ago I had a bleed (bright red with small clots, lasted for about 10 mins) and doc put me on bed rest, so I skipped work for a whole week. I had only brown spotting since then. Today I went in for another u/s to get the beans dated, and one measured 9w4d (3 days ahead actually!) but another one was only 9w, which is a 4 day difference between beans. Also, the second one, we couldn't find the heart beat. Doc looked from all sides, but the bean wasn't even the same "color" as the healthy one, it looked darker, and there was no visible heart beat.

Devastated.

The doc found what looked like some blood closer to the cervix, and said it looked like it's coming from the second bean's placenta. He's pretty sure the bean didn't make it. I'm going to a high risk dr on Monday to confirm.

I don't know what else to say besides that I'm just devastated.
