One or Two?

We have been wondering whether we are having one or two babies with this pregnancy since there were two embryos placed in the womb.

Today I went to the doctor -- not a regular scheduled visit but due to a little incident that freaked me out - the spotting which I thought was slowing down came back again in the afternoon, I called the nurse right away and she asked me to come in to see the doctor in person. As this was not a scheduled visit I didn't call mic but went alone, and the scan revealed the answer to the very question in the title.

I saw ONE beautiful little sac on the screen. It's just a sac at 5W3D (5-weeks and 3-days) but the doctor said we should be able to see the heartbeat in a week's time. Luckily he also confirmed the spotting is just old blood so I just need to rest some more but no need to worry too much for the time being and to be on the safe side he is checking again the hormone levels to see if I need more progesterone support.

Well, one is better than none and at least it helped us solve the name problem (as Mic and I have picked one girl and one boy's name, we didn't quite know what to do if we end up with two boys or two girls). Little K, stay strong and hang in there! We can't wait to see your little heart at next Monday's visit.
