Vanishing Twin :(

So I had my first appt today and I was SO nervous. This whole time I have been feeling very pregnant and even had a feel it was twins. I was right! But unfortunately it looks like one is a vanishing twin:( I'm at 6 weeks and we could very clearly see the egg sac and a heartbeat in one (Yay!) but in the other there was nothing just the sac. I know this is really common, and that I should just be happy that as of right now I have a viable pregnancy but I can't help but feel sad and like I could have done something to help both babies live. I also feel like my intituition was cruel to make me know we were having twins but then not actually have it be the case. I know ridiculous right? Anyway I am going to try not think of any of it anymore and just enjoy the next few weeks but I have to admit that I was a bit excited about the prospect of twins.
