I have a twin question??

Question

Okay, so the doctors think I was carrying twins and I lost one. I have been bleeding on and off for about 2 weeks but when I went the other day they found a sac, fetal pole and yolk sac. This is what they are assuming the bleeding is because I did have it heavier before and passed some clots. Anyone ever experienced this and how long did you continue to bleed? I go Monday for another u/s and I hope all is well. Oh, and my HCG levels did drop, but are now starting to rise again? Is that common too?

Thank you Bag. I needed to hear that. It is hard to rest as I have two other children. The bleeding has been 2 weeks tomorrow, but has been only off and on. I don't and haven't filled a pad in less than 2 hours. I change it probably 2 times a day. Thank you for your experience although I am so sorry for the loss.

Answer 1

We lost a twin at 8 weeks. I can't remember how long I bled for, but it can't have been more than three weeks and it did settle down after the loss of the first twin.
I wish you all the best. You must put your feet up and not do ANYTHING! (easier said than done if you have other children! )
Our 'other' twin is now 2 years old and a little madame!

Answer 2

I lost a set of twins one year before I had my daughter. My daughter was twin but I lost that one early on. I think I bleed for about two weeks but it was so long ago I don't really remember. My first set I lost I was bleeding for a long time and I was really sick. Keep your head high and rest as best as you can. If you can rest alot at least do not lift anything heavy and be protective of you belly. I wish you all the best of luck:-) and by the way my daughter is 4 and strong as ever so have faith (if your hcg levels are rising again that is a GREAT sign)
