I think you may have been pregnant with twins and for some reason the second baby didn't develop. You need an ultrasound and an obsetrician to ensure that the second placenta doesn't affect the blood flow to the growing baby. good luck joymaker rn
============================================
Sometimes a placenta can divide into 2 lobes. This is called a bi-partite placenta and can occur in a single pregnancy. At delivery, the midwife will check the placenta to ensure it is complete and no lobes have been left behind. A scan will sometimes be used to ensure all the placenta has been expelled. It doesn't mean that there was a twin pregnancy neccessarily. 3 lobes can develop - tri-partite placenta etc.
If you only have one baby and you were support to have two then the other baby is dead and you had a miscarriage on one of your babies
Yes, twins can have two placentas, one for each baby. This is more common in fraternal twins, who develop from two separate eggs fertilized by two different sperm. Identical twins, who develop from a single fertilized egg that splits into two embryos, can sometimes share a single placenta.
Literally, having two chorions and two placentas -- used especially of human fraternal twins. That is to say, not identical twins growing in a single sac, but two completely separate fetuses with separate placentas.
Chances are, something happened to the twin. But since the remaining baby has lots of room to grow, it will probably be born as if it were a single.
Yes, identical twins can have two placentas. This occurs when the fertilized egg splits into two embryos very early in development, leading to each twin having its own placenta.
It is not common, but it happens. You probably conceived twins and one did not develop, it is called a blighted ovum. If you had conceived a single baby and it had not developed you would have had a miscarriage, but the healthy fetus is preventing this. As the healthy baby grows the second placenta will probably be overtaken by the good one. An area of thickening may be found when you have your baby.
Twin births for horses are rare, especially when both foals are born alive. In this case there should be two placentas.
could mean that there were originally two zygotes in you and you would've had twins. or maybe your sac tore during delivery so there were two pieces. I've heard about it happening though where two sacs came out but only one baby.
Two umbilical cords, two placentas, two bags of water, two of everything! That is unless they are conjoined twins.
Yes, identical twins can have separate sacs and placentas, which is known as dichorionic-diamniotic twins. This occurs when the fertilized egg splits into two embryos early in development, resulting in each twin having its own sac and placenta.
I am pretty sure because that is how my twins are at the moment that one placenta and two sacs mean identical twins more often than fraternal and more often identical if they are the same sex
It is two words.
