is this twins?

is this twins?

This vaginal scan was taken when I was 5 1/2 weeks. The lady said there was only one baby because she could only see one heart beat, but that she had no idea what the thing was in the top right of the picture. I've been sick from the day I conceived. Any advice would be good. I am now 10 or 11 weeks and I won't get my usound scan until I'm 13 weeks, I've got 2 1/2 weeks to wait for my scan, on 16 October 2009. Help anyone, what do you think? Could it be twins?
Many Thanks x

My doctor could tell on my first exam...The doctor said I was a "little large" and we had an ultra sound which determined there were two in there.

I had my scan and there is only one in there! So I guess I was just hoping! Thanks for all your answers..... At least its a lovely baby even tho he or her is alone! Good luck to all you lucky ladies who have twins! God Bless! I don't know how to add the scan pic to this page for you all to see. I'll try! x

 more than5 1/2 weeks

you were more than 5 1/2 weeks, because the sac is big and you can see the embrio. You can start to have a heart beat perceptible at only 6 week. At 5 weeks, you would see only a black area like a small egg. You had to be around 7-8 weeks when this was done. What is the right upper area? well, tell her to move her probe and to look around. If she doesn't, yes she may miss a twin.

I had my first ultrasound done at 6 weeks and found out I was having twins then. She saw both babies with the regular ultrasound and then switched to a vaginal scan to get a better look and was able to hear both heartbeats that way. When's your next ultrasound?

 Congrats
by: Sharyne

Congratulations on your twins! I don't want to think of it as being twins as I don't want to be disappointed if it's not! :-)
I hope it is twins tho! I think it's just weird that there is something else in the scan picture. I can't wait for my scan! I'll let you all know how I get on. Thanks x

 SAME AS ME

Hi there just wanted to let you know I had a scan at 6 weeks and im now 15 weeks. my first scan showed only one baby and one heartbeat but the scan looked pretty much the same as yours. At my 12 week scan they discovered I am having twins so your are probably more than likely right. good luck

 when my twins were found

 hmm
by: Sharyne

I've read that they don't always pick up 2 heartbeats at a scan as early as 5/6weeks. Thats why I am a bit curious. It's probably nothing, just looking for what you all thought. Thanks

Strange that an ultrasound tech wouldn't be able to tell you what something is... I'd defintely say that if there was only one heartbeat, then there's only one baby as well though.
