Vanishing Twin Syndrome
Well, after a somewhat scary occurrence over the weekend it would appear that we just had the experience of a vanishing twin. This is not to cause undue alarm, as today's ultrasound revealed a very healthy, viable 14-week-old baby. However, alongside the healthy baby was an empty sac filled with fluid and small amounts of tissue. I trust that this was not a viable baby to begin with and have faith that everything happened just the way it was supposed to. We are grateful for a healthy baby, and I am especially thankful for everyone's thoughts and prayers. I know my prayers were answered.

ReplyDeleteOh Lisa! I'm so glad to hear this! I've been thinking about you all day. I know how scary and uncertain that feeling is, so I'm glad that you were able to see your baby on that ultrasound. Great news!
ReplyDeleteOh my goodness! I had no idea. I'm glad baby is okay :)
ReplyDeleteDid you think you were having twins?
ReplyDeleteGlad everything is ok otherwise!
No, there was no expectation of twins. Yesterday was my first ultrasound/prenatal visit, so this came as a blessing instead of a loss.
