Twins?

Question

I had an early scan on Friday. I thought I was 6 weeks 3 days. The tech couldn't find anything, and my hcg was 5000. My Dr started preparing me for the possibility of an ectopic pregnancy. but I haven't had any bleeding or pain. I was super stressed out so I had another scan yesterday. The tech yesterday found the gestational sac in less than 30 seconds. 🙄 I measured at 5 weeks 4 days. Because it's so early, I'll rescan at 6 weeks to confirm yolk sac. BUT it looks to me like there are two yolk sacs forming. what do y'all think? 5000 hcg for 5 weeks 4 days is high. Twins?

yellow lines pointing to "yolk sacs"

Answer

My HCG at 5.5 weeks with twins was 63,000. 5,000 is normal. You would see if there was twins.

Answer

they would have said something to you.  I only see on sack.  good luck

Answer

You wouldn’t necessarily be able to see twins at this point, sometimes they hide until 7-10 weeks. But in any case, your levels are appropriate for a singleton.

Answer

Got another ultrasound. You ladies were right - just one!

Answer

At 5 weeks my hcg was 11,000 only one bean

Answer

If they couldnt see a yolk sac then that means theres no visible yolk sac yet.. also you cant call it a twin pregnancy until 2 fetal poles would be seen

Answer

I see the circles that you’re pointing at, and they do look like two yolk sacs!  I’m not an u/s tech, so please don’t take my word as a diagnosis.  Crossing fingers for you, one sac means possibly identical twins!  Following
