8 Weeks Identical Twins

I was 8 weeks and 2 days in this picture. I had an early scan because I had some bleeding at 7 weeks, and suspected miscarriage, but instead of finding that we had lost a baby, we discovered that we were having TWO!

SHOCKED :)
by: Faith S

The same exact thing happened to me. I am currently 8 weeks and 5 days. I went to the ER for vaginal bleeding thinking I was having a miscarriage and found out I am having twins. My babies are in two yolk sacs but seprated by internal fetal poles. I think I'm having identical twins based of my nursing knowledge. Good luck to both of you or congrats (depending on how old this post is)!

yolk sac....
by: Anonymous

It looks like you only have one yolk sac....is that the case? I was told by my tech that I had one yolk sac, but two fetal poles, which is mono-mono twins, but she never specifically said twins.... I asked her what she was measuring and she said "oh those are the fetal poles" which I didn't think much of at the time. I assumed there was suppose to be two.... now I'm wondering.
