2 gestational sacs at 5 weeks and maybe 5 days

I went in on 2/19 for my first ultrasound and there were 2 gestational sacs.  The nurse had originally thought I was 6 weeks, but my dr. went off my IVF transfer of 1/26 and says I am 5 weeks.  Should I only have seen a gestational sac?  Dr. seems positive and regretted that I came in so early.  I am scheduled for another ultrasound on 2/26.  Praying for 2 viable babies!

Double Congrats! I freaked a little when they told me I was having twins.  It's scary because there is slightly more risks w/twins, but the dr. told me when they can see a beating heart (around 6 weeks) then your risk for m/c goes down to like 5%, then by the time your 8 weeks, the risk goes waaaaaayyy down to like 2%!!  You are doing great so far!  I bet you see two heartbeats next week!  Well on your way to a happy healthy 9!

Dont worry.. 5 weeks you will see gestational sac. By 6 weeks you should be able to see the fetal pole. Good luck!!! and congrats!
