This is today's ultrasound pic of my little peanut, you can see there is something to the right of it which is what the sonographer on Tuesday called a 'non viable second twin', however the sonographer today had a good, clear look and said it was never another baby at all, it's an extra bit of placenta that can happen sometimes and it has in fact shrunk from what the pictures showed in the last scan. So I have been through the emotional wringer for nothing!!!The bub is fine and has a very strong heartbeat which I heard today and they don't see the placenta growth being a problem, but I will need another scan at 14 weeks just to check on it. I go back to see my OB on Wed and will be able to ask him more questions but at the moment I just cannot describe the sheer relief I am feeling. This wasn't our twins at all (which means if they're still to come we'll have 5 kids all up and we were only planning on 4 but I have no objections to one more :-) ). I think for any future pregnancies I will request to go the place I went to today and give the other place a wide berth. I just can't believe they wrote that it was a dead baby in the report if they weren't really sure that's what it was.
Thank you everyone so much for your prayers, I have felt quite peaceful through this whole saga and knew there were people praying!!One very happy mumma here today :-)

Wow, what a heap of emotions you must be going thru! praise God that your little bubba is all safe and was not in fact a twin, praise God too that you were able to lean on Him thru all this journey!
Luv Donna
PS how cool to see a pic of your little one already!
Sorry that you have had to go through all that but praise God all has worked out well. That scan is a reality check, isn't it. Dear little one but so small. I get to thinking of them like the babies in the widget!
Praise God that He works all things out for good, to those who are the called according to His purpose.
Enjoy your pregnancy!
Have a wonderful weekend.
Blessings,

Oh mate, praise God for your news although it must have been such a huge ride for you. What a great thing though to be able to lean and depend on God no matter what it all looks like.
