I had my first ultrasound today **UPDATED**

Ashley • TTC #2 after a twin miscarriage Eric born 5/12/14 twins lost 10/8/17

This is a little long so bear with me - I just needed to be able to put my fears out there somewhere- and maybe someone might have some answers for me.

I had my first ultrasound today and they found nothing. My LMP was July 12 so according to the doctors i should be nearly 11 weeks pregnant and something should be visible. But they found nothing. Now I'm sitting here struggling with the implications of that statement. Could it have been a false positiveand i was never pregnant? could it be that I'm just not as far along as i think? which begs the question: how early can you get a positive pregnancy test? We figured I was five weeks pregnant when I got the positive result but what if i wasn't? what if i was only 2 weeks pregnant and the embryo never implanted? is that even possible?

All of the potential results i envisioned from this ultrasound- further along than we thought or twins! I've developed a small but firm bump and since i didn't show till 5 months with my first these seemed very real possibilities. But never that they wouldn't find anything.

**UPDATE**

So it turns out they did see something on the ultrasound. brace yourselves: they found twins measuring 5 weeks 3 days and 6weeks 0days. but there was one thing they didn't find: a heartbeat. first of all i must have been JUST BARELY pregnant when i first tested for them to be only 5-6 weeks and second it's very early for a heartbeat either way from what I've been reading. But there's still a very real possibility that i could have a miscarriage. there's Amherst ultrasound next week. hopefully we'll get some good news then.
