Losing a baby

Lost my unborn twins

I had to have a scan at 11 weeks as i started getting bleeding and cramps, i had a strong feeling that i had lost my baby, but when i went for the scan i wasn't prepared for them to tell me it was actually twins! Got to go back next week for second scan as one twin was more developed than the other and they need to double check there will still be no heart beat a week later, but i've been told not to get my hopes up! I'm trying not to, but keep having dreams at night that they made a mistake and at least one twin will be ok!! anybody had this happen to them and the second twin was ok? xx

i'm so sorry to hear what your going through! i no what your going through the same happened to me when i was expecting my daughter (now 2). I found out i was pregnant in November 2007 and started bleeding end of december beginning of January. Id had an early scan so new i was having 2 and the scan confirmed i'd miscarried one of them although they couldn't find a strong heart beat on the other either :( ... i went back a week or so later and my daughter was fine heart beat back to normal :) ... fingers crossed its the same for you xxxx

It hasnt happened to me personaly, but two of my friends foud out they were having twins (at different times, not at the same time!) and at about the same weeks you are they both had bleeding and the doctors were worried. One of them lost a twin and one of them had both survive. I have read loads of articles about this and most stories are that you can loose one but the other will be fine and healthy. I know its not ideal and you'll always wonder 'what if' like my friend does but shes thankful she has one and didnt loose both. Hope all goes well for you though, good luck and best wishes to y ouand your babies :) xxxxx

I found out last may i was pregnant with twins, everything went fine up untill i was 6 months pregnant, one of the twins had died. the doctor told me that the other twin could have suffered a trauma when twin 1 had died. had several brain scans on the baby and everything seemed fine but there was still a chance something could be wrong with him. he came 6 weeks early and was in special care but he is now 5 months old and is a perfectly healthy baby. best of luck xx

hey hun im sorry to hear what your going through when my mum was carrying me she miscarried my twin brother late on into the pregnancy but i survived i was born by c-section and weighed a tiny 2lbs2oz and 20 years later im still here and have a beautiful 10month old son of my own.
my son was also meant to be a twin but sadly the other just wasnt strong enough to hold on but benji stayed strong and was born 6lb10oz and extremely healthy. it may sound a bit silly but im pretty sure the brother i lost was looking over benji for me
i hope you get good news on your scan xx
