Omg It's Twins

Ok so 2day was my first ultrasound. My husband and I were very nervous because I have been experiencing some bleeding, and the tech wasn't all that helpful with her "Mmm" and "ooookkkk." But after about 5 minutes which felt like an hour she finally says "it looks like it could be twins" now if she didn't just make me use the bathroom there would have been some problems. But then she tells us that 1 of the babies is at 8 weeks like it's supposed to be and the other is at 6 weeks and there is a good chance that only 1 baby will make it.  My mom has been a nurse at Yale since long before I was born so I asked her and she said that doesn't mean anything that there's a great chance that there will still be 2 babies. I just need 2 know some percentages. Because this will drive me crazy , my mom is telling just 2 wait it out and see what happens. I can't wait I need facts and figures. Someone please tell me something.
