Hi!
Congratulations!
What beautiful levels! I am here to tell you that it can happen!  At 5 weeks, I saw 2 sacs and at 6 weeks---you guessed it!---three!  Its also not possible to tell how many there are just by HCG levels.  My levels were pretty normal for one baby--and I had three healthy ones.  I wish you all the best however many there are!
Good luck!
