My water broke at 13 weeks and it seems I
may have miscarried twin. It is
impossible to ever know for sure because I
didn't keep it. I didn't ask my doctor
this during my friday appt but is this
baby at high risk still if it was a twin
in a different sac??
I am to remain on modified bed rest
because we don't know if this baby's water
broke and I sealed very very quickly and
fluid came back extremely fast or if it
was a twin in a different sac.
It wasn't the vanishing twin syndrome
because I passed something and it pretty
much looked like flesh but was pretty dark
- unformed with white around it. I should
have asked the doc my chances of
delivering full term without complications
if it was a twin. Now I will be obsessing
for two weeks until my next appt...I
obsess.

Karin,
my cousin's gf got preggo right after
chemo for breast cancer (which they told
her she would not be able to for yrs) at
21. She ended up pregoo with twins (my
aunts are twins ) anyhoo 4-5
months into the pregnancy they realized
one of the babies died and if they did not
do surgery then the other would to. The
surgery was risky though too. Well she
opted to have the surgery at I think 20
weeks and they removed 1 baby and the
other stayed in. Meena is now 5 yrs old
and a very healthy lil girl!
Did u have an u/s before this happened?
I can't remember
I was told I had a vanishing twin cause
when I gave birth there were 2 amniotic
sacs. But I had u/s done at 5,9,13,19,32
weeks (i was high risk) and they always
saw only 1 so they say it must have been
wayyy early on.
How u feeling though?? Going stir crazy
yet???

Thanks for asking. I did type more in the
pregnancy forums regarding my current
events. I am very worried again because
(tmi) within the last hour when I wipe, I
have a little brown tissue like stuff
coming. I am hoping that if it was the
twin, it's still reminents of that one and
it's not another impending miscarriage.
The doctor stated that I mostly likely
would continue to pass some stuff that was
stuck in the part of the membrane that is
split (i am horrible and explaining it)
as there was still fluid or something in
that part. She said as the baby grows the
head will press against that part and
cause leakage or blood or whatever is in
that part...She couldn't tell via
ultrasound.
Calling it a miscarriage after 12 weeks
just seem so wrong. I have seen the
little hands, eye sockets, head, little
body.... I am actually a little freaked
about sleeping tonight. I guess what will
happen, will happen. My breast are not
sore so I am wondering if I am losing my
pregnancy symptoms. I really wish my
doctor could have gotten me in today. If
I don't have any pregnancy symptoms this
weekend, I will surely emotionally lose
it!
