As you can see in this picture, it’s very easy to tell there’s 2 sacs. So, I doubt they just missed a twin.

as you can see in all 3 pics u can make out 2 tiny babies
I believe it was just one baby if the ultrasound said that. If you think you might be having twins, asked for another ultrasound. At your checkup, if you’re having twins, they should be hearing two heartbeats.. good luck.
