Help identical twins in one sace/one placenta

post #1 of 3
Thread Starter 
Hi Ladies, I stumbled upon this site and read some stories from a mom expecting momo twins as I am but now can't find the forum again hmph.. In any case on wednesday of this past week, I went to have my nt scan imagine my suprise when the u/s tech told me I was carrying twins. Excitment turned to fear as he told me the babies were in one sac to me no big deal at the time but now that i've had time to research the implications there is a huge risk of cord entanglement due to 2 umbilical cords and no dividing sac between them. I've been a mess since thursday not sure how to feel. Doc told me i will have to be admitted for constant monitioring at 26 weeks which is fine but I'm so afraid of loosing my babies before hand. I can'ts top thinking about it. has anyone else been through this or going through this.. would love to hear from you, I reallly coudl use some encouragment right now.. thanks so much.

The mamas on the multiples board may be able to offer advice.
