I had some spotting that began on Friday. I had an SCH, so they were not too worried. However, this morning, an U/S revealed that Baby B has not survived. It's a definite thing, as there is no longer a HB. Baby A is measuring at 10w4d (right on target). The HB was 154, which I thought was concerning cause 2 weeks ago, it was 167. I was told it wasn't an issue. When they were looking over Baby A, they noticed what could have possibly been a hole in the abdomen. They are not 100% sure. If could be a hole, nothing, or "Whartons Jelly." I'm seeing my OBGYN on Wednesday & I will be referred to a specialist. They suspect that Baby B didn't make it due to genetic issues, so I'll be getting genetic testing done this week. Obviously there's a concern for genetic issues with the surviving baby that they want to completely rule out. From what I've read, the possibilities of genetic issues with both twins is not very prevalent, but I'm super freaked out nonetheless. And obviously concerned about this abdomen issue.
We MC in November. Now I've lost Baby B. I just hope that the odds are in our favor for Baby A that they arrive healthy in August.
Thoughts & prayers are appreciated for this momma.

I'm sorry you lost baby B and your baby in November My doctor told me at my most recent appointment of the heartbeat is going to slow down as the babies grow so please don't worry about that as long as it's over 100 it safe.
Thanks. I keep thinking to myself, I can't lose 3 babies in 3-4 months time. Stastitics have to be on my side. (Or that's what I'm telling myself) U/S tech said the HB vary all the time, depending on resting vs active. S/he wasn't doing a whole lot of moving when the HB was taken, but later on, I got to see some moving and shaking.
Mom2Ms, I'm so very sorry for your loss of Baby B. Keeping you all in my thoughts and sending all my prayers for the continued health of you and Baby A.

Mom2Ms, I am so sorry, we also lost a twin with my DD around 9 weeks. It is an extra set of stress to loss one and still have another to worry about. It all sucks, but try and stay positive, I know it is hard. \ But like others said, the heart rate varies and eventually slows down as the baby grows.
Ohh Mom2Ms, so sorry I only just now respond, didn't see the thread earlier as I haven't been online much at all this past week. I'm so so very sorry for the loss of baby B. **hugs** I'm glad to read they aren't too worried about the SCH but I can imagine tis scary nonetheless, especially with the sad news about your baby. I hope that baby A keeps on growing strong! Much love coming your way.
