Doppler sounds.. More than one.. Twins?!

Question

Ftm here so bare with me.

Ok so messing with my Sonoline B Doppler today. I hear two different sounding heart beats. One @ 148. And the other @156. One was strong and deeper. The other (156) was higher pitch and quicker. I was reading it could be Umbilical cord but I can't find any videos on what the cord sounds like by itself. And info would be great.

I have had one ultrasound at 7weeks. Said it was just one baby. But I've read a lot of stories on here about mothers not finding out they were having twins till 12+weeks.

15weeks and 3 days. baby #1. Having a gender 3D ultrasound at 16weeks.

Thanks everyone.

Answer

I found out I was pregnant with twins at 7 weeks. If you have seen the baby already you would know. It's pretty obvious if there are 2 sacs or one

Answer

Mine did the same thing. 1 heart beat was at 140 (which is what her hb is at the Drs) and the other was 176. Threw me for a loop. I talked to my dr and he said that there are so many echos that go on in there so hearing two or more hbs is pretty normal. Only one baby in there for me :)

Answer

Mine does that even at 18 weeks (: it's just one baby. The placenta can make a different sound!! I freaked out at first to but it's just one baby (:

Answer

I hear the same thing and my last ultrasound was at 10 weeks and I had about 4 before that and it only showed one baby! I agree with you it is confusing!

Answer

Could be the cord or placenta as well can sound like a heartbeat. With today's technology it's rare to miss a baby especially with early scanning

Answer

Yeah that's what I thought. So I wondering if it was the placenta or umbilical cord maybe??  Also I've searched twins on here. Quite a few people said they didn't find out they were having twins till there 2nd ultrasound (between 12-16weeks) Something about sac/baby placement in the first ultrasound lead they tech to believe there was only one.
