Almost 6 weeks twins, low heart rate
Hi everyone. After 3 miscarriages, I went to the doctor last week and found out I was pregnant. An ultrasound showed one sac, but no heartbeat yet measuring only about 4.5 weeks. I returned today to see if a heartbeat had developed (which we had never seen on the other miscarriages) and imagine my surprise when there were 2 heartbeats! However, the ultrasound tech said that the rates were a little slow. Not sure of exact number but she did say both were over 100. They measured at 5w5d and 5w6d. I am very worried about the lower rate though. Any advice?? Thanks!
a few days is not bad , now a few weeks thne start to worry? before you had the u/s to find out you were carrying twins. did you have ne idea or feelings that you might be carrying twins?
Thank you for the well wishes guys. I did have the ultrasound and saw both babies heartbeats. The tech said that everything looked normal, but when I asked how far along they were measuring she just said "6 weeks and some change." I know they cant say exactly or whatever and this might just be me freaking out and analyzing everything but if they measured at 5w5d and 5w6d when I had US 8 days ago, shouldnt they at least be measuring at 7 weeks? Might be nothing but of course keep questioning it in my head. Still havent heard from dr.
hope all is well and its nothing to worry about...please update us when you get back

Going in for ultrasound today at 2:30. Had cramping and back pain all night. Just have horrible feeling it's happening again. I don't know if I can handle this.
my boobs were severely sore some days and not so sore other days....its so hard not to judge our pregnancies on our symptoms but they fluctuate too much to depend on them....try to stay calm....i know much easier to say then do
as long as you dont have any spotting/bleeding/cramping i would say everything is fine....and who knows you could have woke up this morning and they are sore again
