Question about my 8wk ultrasound

[Ashelen]

So I had my 8wk ultrasound...baby has a nice healthy heartbeat, measuring 8wks, looks great.

BUT...the ultrasound tech said there was a shadow she couldn't get a good zoom on, and she couldn't guarantee that there was only one. I don't want to bias anyone by saying where she thought she saw another baby, so I want to just put the pic up and see if any of you ladies see it or not. honestly I don't care either way.

Sorry about the quality of the pic...my scanner is MIA since we moved and my camera is being wonky.

Obviously the thing circled in bright yellow and labeled "baby' is the one that we saw clearly and got a good heartbeat measurement on....but do YOU see another baby, and where?

thanks ladies :-D

I see something that COULD be a second baby.  But I've also seen weird blobs like that on my ultrasounds and I've always had singleton pregnancies.  They should have gone ahead and done a transvaginal ultrasound.  Even accounting for the camera issues, it looks like the technology of the machine they used wasn't exactly the most up to date or clearest.

haha, i just saw how you referred to me and as i was closing the post i thought the same thing

i tried for 1 more and was blessed with twins....maybe it's a sign.....i cant wait to hear your update

i have my 8 week u/s pics posted on fb under the "twins, oh my" photo album if you want to compare

[waitn838]

i see what appears as a blob directly above too....kinda similiar to my 8 week u/s....the tech said she thought she saw 2 beating heartbeats but the babies were behind each other....we immediately did a vaginal u/s and sure enough, 2 babies!!!!

ugh, how exciting that you might be having twins too!!!!


hopefully this week flies by for you because i know i wouldnt be able to wait that long, LOL

congrats!!!

OMG suspense is killing me. Strange thing when you said you were pregnant I wondered if it was going to be twins. Dead serious!  Idk but looks like a second to me. But maybe a vanishing twin?  Or maybe a twin or maybe just a random shadow to freak you out?  Oh my gosh can't wait to hear next week. Good luck!!  I hope you are feeling ok. Of course you are allowed to be scared I think even with one you are allowed to be scared, first time mom or not any life change is scary. But you know god never gives you more than you can handle and you are truly an amazing mommy so if anyone can handle
It, YOU CAN!  Hugs!!
