New pics of the twins! We had a ultrasound a couple of weeks ago. Apparently this will become routine, about every 4 wks now and maybe closer together by the 3rd trimester. It was at a special Fetal Diagnostic Center where they only do ultrasounds. It lasted about an hour while they determined all sorts of things about the babies. They are certain they are fraternal and each has its own placenta. That's very good news. If they share a placenta it could cause problems with growth in one of the babies. They even measured exactly the same and a few days larger than they should which is a good thing. After all the measurements, they switched the ultrasound to 3D. The picture above is a 3D image of both of them together. We probably won't get too many more pics of them together as they grow. The other cool thing they did was make us a cd of all the pics, including some video of each baby. After such a long time of being pushed around, they both got very agitated and were everywhere. Baby A kept turning away and hiding its face from us. It was such fun to see them moving around, but yet still not be able to feel them. The kids are so excited. H keeps saying she just can't wait until they are born. Speaking of due dates, I didn't mention it before, but they are due April 26th. However, being twins, my doctor says we'll aim for 37 wks, which makes it around the beginning of April. I'm just hoping to make it past H's bday the end of March without being on bedrest! We hope everyone has a great weekend! I'll try to do a better job keeping up with our blog! (the first video should say Twin B left, not right)
