A member asked:
5 1/2 week ultrasound 2 sack could only find one tinny fetal pole and heartbeat. told we needed to wait 2weeks can second sack still be a baby?

Pregnancy: Yes, that is a possibility. You are so early at this point that it is difficult to see anything meaningful on ultrasound. A recheck in 2 weeks should help sort everything out. Good luck!
