The Girls

We went in for another "growth" ultrasound today, and once again have a few things that have changed.
First - They found two placenta's, (apperantly they are right next to one another, so easy to miss) so we are back to having either di/di identical twins, or fraternal. If the girls look alike, we may never know. If they do not look alike, we will know!
That is a bit of a relief to me. mono/di twins are kind of scary.

Second - They are growing within the normal boundries. One is within the 50% ranking, and the other one in the 44% ranking. The little smaller one is B, and poor little girl has a squished head. Instead of round it is quite oval. It has to do with her position in the womb, and the Dr. said it was not anything to worry about.
We also got some of those kind of creepy looking photos from the ultrasound. At this new place, they do not let you record the ultrasound, so we only have the pictures that they printed for us. Which I then took a picture of with my phone, so the quality is a bit off.
Here are the 3D pics of our little girls. (Baby B is the one who has the quite oval squished head, so trying to get her pic was quite a bit harder)

  1. Very cute! Haha yes... mono/di twins are scary. I'm glad your girls are growing well. Emily and Ana are such cute names. Are you thinking about doing a DNA test when they're born?

  2. Oh---I don't think the pictures are creepy. Cute. I'm glad they are di/di. That's better.
    We are excited for them to grow, grow, grow and STAY IN THERE for several more weeks. Hope all is well with mommy.
