hidden twin on ultrasound exam

[angels*3]

I have had an ultrasound three times now (12wks, 15wks, and 19wks)  The first one was to check for a twin pregnancy, which they only saw one, and with the other two the tech never looked for a twin at all eventhough I hinted towards them into looking. I have measured atleast a month ahead since I was 12 wks and I have felt movement since 12wks (which made the dr check for twins) I felt that the dr was rather quick as he was way behind with his patients.  I had an emply bladder (I thought that you were not supposed to for an u/s)I also had morning sickness a couple of times and didn't have any with my first two pregnancies, I have been in maternity clothes since 8wks, I have gained 30lbs,had really bad headaches and have been dreaming of twins even before the dr thought it was twins, twins run on my side of the family as well. I also am hungry every two hrs, have to use the bathroom atleast once and hour.  I am now 24wks 5 days and I feel like I am having twins (I have always thought this) I can feel the baby move under my ribs on the right side and down in my pelvic area on both sides at the same time.  What I want to know, is it possible that the first doctor missed the twin and the other two techs didn't see one as they thought that there was no need to look for one?  Could I have a second baby hiding in there and it not have been seen?  I see my OBGYN in two weeks and I feel silly bringing this up to her if there is no way that this could be possible.  Any input on this would be great.  Sorry to make this so long.  Thanks.

I had an ultrasound less than two weeks ago and I was told a girl and you couldn't see any male parts, I was sick last week and was in the hospital so I had a follow up appt this week and this morning the ultrasound showed it was a boy you could visiably see the parts. The tech took the thing off for like 2 seconds put it back on and there baby couldnt tell if it had any parts and it was completely turned around.. (they couldn't get it to hardly move bc the appt was so early it would stretch then go right back in place said it was sleeping) I have already bought tons of girl clothes now it shows a boy. The friday before last i had an ultrasound that showed girl and heart rate was 157 got sick over the weekend had to go to the er heart rate was 136 wed went to my dr and it was 152 today i went and it was 134 so I'm not sure if they are picking up two different babies. I found out late in my pregnancy at 18 weeks i was even pregnant so didn't have the early ultrasounds done I am now 21 weeks and have gained almost 33 lbs and it has came in the past few weeks. I'm not eating any different or anything. Can you tell better with a 3d or 4d ultrasound if they have missed a baby. Mine could be side by side and it get missed bc my right side stays hard where (it) stays and sometimes I can feel kicks or hits in two diff places at once i know it could be arm and leg at the same time but any light would help if anyone had this issue later in the second trimester and being fresh to find out.

U're not alone..I felt the same..big measured..gain 6kgs in 1st trimester and another 1.7kgs more in a month ..i'm 17w now and glad no morning sickness at all till now..i had 2 u/s at 12w & 16w..but still c 1 baby..still hoping for a miracle to see there's two babies in there bcoz both u/s seem done very fast..*yes,govt clinic..f.o.c and i'm foreigner,i dnt hv my right to push them to check properly* anw,i'm going to go to private clinic around 25w to check bby gender and to satisfy myself..:-)..good luck all..doesn't matter it's 1 or twin but i need to make SURE,so that i can prepare myself earlier..nothing WRONG to be so curious for a twin when twins run in ur family!God bless..1 or 2..both miracle..cheers!..

I am also wondering if there is a missing twin? I am only 7 weeks I had a ultrasound at 4 weeks and almost 6 weeks then again at 7 the first thet didnt see anything cuz it was too early the second one we seen a yolk sack and the the third one seen one baby they did both inter and outer ultrasounds durring all 3 but the 3rd one had shadowing dehind it and the doctor said do twins run in your family? I said no and asked if I.was having twins and he said its to soon to tell. Plz what do.u.think?

Hi i'm 25wks now I have a two year old son. When I found out I was pregnant again I was very sick in the begginng of this pregnancy it felt twice as bad as the first one.I lost a lot of weight. I also started feeling movement early.Sometimes it feels like i'm caring twins I'm not sure my husband says maybe its just the way the baby is lying I'm not sure but its realy strange and Its so different from the first pregnany.Is it only one?
