Yesterday I had my first US at what I thought should be 7 weeks 3 days (Decided to have an early scan because I've already miscarried twice in the last year).
Surprise Surprise, two heartbeats. Seems like the same sac so identical...just too early to be sure if mo mo or mo di
Baby A measured at 7 weeks 1 days w/ 165 bpm
Baby B measured at 7 weeks 5 days w/ 171 bpm
In DRs professional opinion, baby A will vanish because it is behind developmentally. If they were fraternal or had their own sacs she'd be less concerned with the size difference.
It's very hard for me to come to terms with one might vanish because in my opinion both heartbeats are great.
Help? Any stories, good or bad, with a similar scenario?
(Side story, before this 3rd pregnancy, both my husband and I (both 30) were tested for everything under the sun and both of us were found to have MTHFR mutations...so we went nuts taking vitamins and the correct version of "folic acid" called L-5-Methyltetrahydrofolate...hoping that would prevent abnormalities. Hoping it worked, but if we loose one I will have to accept it.)
