I'm preg with my second child, And I had a "vanishing twin" It jsut disolved back into the uterine lining, it didn't miscarry. I had 2 small brownish bleeds, a hypoechoic area on the preplacental area and a positive maternal serum screening test for downs, but the amnio proved wrong. Have anyone else experienced this?

I live in ny and I watch the discovery health channel all the time and they recently aired a show about this. Maybe if you have that channel you could keep watching until they air it again. Sorry I dont have more info. G/L with everything.

I went out on the web and read about vanishing twin, It says that it happens alot. it because we are able to see things soner now so Doc.'s can see the twin, Than at some poin for what ever reason it vanishes..It also says that little happens to the other baby. and all other pregnancys should be just fine..If you need more info just google Vanishing Twin you can find alot on it. Good Luck to you and dont worry to much..

I had vanishing twin with my oldest son. i had minor spotting about 30 days into my pregnancy and then nothing. my doc said if i hadn't had early problems hence an early u/s i would have never known. however i am a product of a pregnancy with vanishing twin. they didn't do ultrasounds then routinly but they thought my mom was having like 5 (no meds and in the 70s so very shocking) so they gave her one and I was normal roughly 18 weeks and my twin was only 5 weeks they said it would reabsorbe and it did I was the only one who came out per my mom.
