blighted twin

Posted By Lisa on May 05, 1999 at 12:08:22
I am 12 weeks pregnant and during my second pre-natal care visit, my OB-GYN discovered what he called a "Blighted Twin".  I concieved twins, one is very healthy and the other did not form, for reasons unknown.  I have not experienced any bleeding or discomfort.  I wanted to know if the blighted fetus will affect the growth of the healthy fetus or if you can possibly direct me to any articles mentioning this condition.
Thank you.
