It is for sure twins and Im scared

[amberEMTP]

Ok so we found out this week we are having twins although we are happy we are also scared the fertility dr said that i ovulated from each side and dropped 2 eggs he also said that they are 2 different sizes the yolk sacs, and babies looked good i even got to see the heartbeats one baby is measuring 5 days behind the other one 6w5d and 7wks. my ob said that they are measuring the same and gave me adue date of march 14. she said that i shouldnt worry anymore about vanishing twin syndrome? what do you think id o not know much about it. my ob didnt seem worried at all she said that they are hiding way back in the uterus so her measurments might be off a bit she said babies look good and is not worried and said that i have to see her and a high risk dr because of multiples as well does anyone have any advice for me. i know that i have had babies before and was just as scared but my last baby was 7 years ago im not sure why i am so worried!!!

thank you so much for the reassurance. I have had so many ups and downs... I am so tired that some days it is all i can do to get out of bed and function. I guess im overwhelmed as well the thought of having 2 babies at once. I look at my sono and it is so surreal to me at times and them fear, or excitement sets in. I never felt this way with the other pregnancies. I have another sono tomorrow to measure the babies im afraid to post my pics of them because the fertility dr has me panicked about vanishing twin so i was going to wait till tomorrow thank you for making me feel better

My twins are now 2 and I have a four year old.  I can understand you being scared, I was terrified when I first found out I was having twins.   At my eight week u/s the docs told us they were pretty sure both were viable and weren't worried about vanishing twin syndrome, even though I continued to measure differently throughout the whole pregnancy.  Hang in there.  With each week that passes, you'll likely be less and less worried.  Best wishes to you for a happy and healthy pregnancy.

how do you prepare for twins? I have 2 daughters that were both singletons and now the twins how did you make preparitions and by the way my hero for having 2 sets of twins

I can't address the size difference
BUT
I have had two sets of twins
2007 - delivered at 35 weeks - no bed rest - vaginal delivery - everybody home less than 48 hours

2008 - delivered 36 weeks - bedrest last 5 days due to size/weight discordance - both home from hospital healthy (a little jaundices)  both crawling now - both standind and saying mama!
