So today I had my first ultrasound and prenatal appointment. I was really nervous and have had a weird feeling all week that things weren’t what I was expecting. I had my last period November 25th found out I was pregnant January 1st. This means I should be about 9 weeks pregnant.

My ultrasound showed that I am only measuring at 6 weeks. At this time I wasn’t sure what was going on but it didn’t seem like a good thing at all to be measuring so small. So I’m crying of course and when I cry I usually don’t stop for a while. And I hate it I get so embarrassed.

Anyway I move on to my appointment so they can explain more and get the results back from the ultrasound.

The results come back and it says yes I’m measuring small at 6 weeks and 3 days but that there are also Identical Twins! (Which is way exciting) in the moment it sounded bad and that those twins aren’t doing so good. They threw a lot of medical words at us that just made me more worried. The nurse went to go find my actual doctor and she came and explained a lot more.

She made it clear that yes it’s twins and it’s exciting but there is concern because 1. They are still very small and 2. If the pregnancy is viable it’s going to be very high risk because of the shared placenta and shared sack.

So I am trying not to worry cause that is the worst thing I can do but I need prayers and maybe some stories from experienced twin mothers.

Thanks for reading such a long story!! Please send prayers. 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
