A member asked:
I have one gestational sac, three yolks and one heartbeat at 6w1d. is there a chance the others will grow and what kind of triplets are these?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possibly: split into three, but from what you describe, only one heart beat, suggests only one will continue to grow. Next ultrasound will be helpful, and be sure to discuss your concerns with your doctor as well.
