possible twins / not seen in u/s?

[nicole8989]

Ok so im 27weeks and 1day.   my stomach is as big as it was with my first 2 pregnancies full term.    when i lay back i can feel a body at the top of my stomach.   Yet at the same time my hands are on the body i feel kicks very low toward my buttocks/private area.     Could the ultra sound possibly missed a second child? Because i have heard of babies heart beats sometimes be secronized?  Im not sure. I may ask for another u/s

yes it is possible, my cousin was pregnant with what she thought was a single child but when she pushed the first twin out the doctor was like OMG there is a second one and she could have fell off the table...so needless to say she gave birth to twin identical girls Baby A weighing 5.6 and Baby B weighing 4.9 she was hiding the whole entire pregnancy,,,we was not prepared for that.

I was 5 weeks when they found my two babies. Ive had 4 ultrasounds after and i think itd be pretty hard to miss another baby but i know it does happen on rare occasions. Good luck!

I think it's pretty rare to miss one in the U/S.  It could be that this is your second pregnancy and your uterus remembers.  the U/S tech that I had said that many women think that they are bigger the 2nd time because your uterus expands easier and faster after the 1st one.

Same thing happen to me I thought I was having a twins as well I'm way too big compare to my first pregnancy & I also feel same moves & kicks everywhere. But then when I did the u/s found out I have so much amniotic fluid that's y the baby has plenty of room to move around:/... But yeh it's impossible to missed a twin in u/s although I read there's some cases but very rare...yeh best to get another ultrasound u just never know;)
