Anyone experienced hidden twin?

The heartrate can vary if baby is asleep/resting or active. Just like your resting heartrate is slower than when you are active. I don't know any stories personally, so no comment there.

Yep, I was going to say the same about heart rate. It varies by a lot depending on whether the baby is moving or not. My midwife told me at my 20 week appointment that they actually look for variation, even within a minute, as this confirms the heart is doing what it's supposed to. It doesn't mean you have a twin hidden somewhere that it's different from visit to visit.

remember also that your heart rate is picked up on dopplers and such too, at 12weeks scan really should be in depth enough to see things, at our 20week scan we seen 4 working chambers of wee ones heart and the vessels leading to and from the heart, we also seen her kidneys working and producting urine was really cool.
