I’m almost 40 - went to today’s initial ultrasound and there are 3 gestational sacs. I’m only 5 weeks so it’s too early to assess viability, but I can’t fathom doing 3 babies. Two are larger, and one is smaller and the yolk sac couldn’t be visualized.

Curious to hear any perspectives or recent experiences with 3-2 reduction. I hope that’s not a decision I have to make but I’m trying to wrap my brain around what that would be like, and how it even works. Do you get to select which one or is it random?

Thanks for any input and please be kind - I’m in shock and feeling a bit fragile.
