vanishing twin syndrome?

Third Trimester

vanishing twin syndrome?

When my youngest son was born in 09, he arrived with an extra umbilical cord and an extra bag of water ( thats probably why I gained an extra 15 pounds with him :p), anyway, the doctors contributed all of the extras to vanishing twin syndrome. But i dont remember having any of the common vanishing twin symptoms, except maybe slight pelvic pain and light cramps...also my ultrasounds never showed more than one baby..?? could it of been something else and not an extra baby??

Vanishing twin syndrome usually arises early on in pregnancy. Unless you see two babies on an early ultrasound it's almost impossible to diagnose. Talk to your doctor for more information.
