I love having them every two weeks (although I have actually had one every week since 6 weeks but it will start being every 2 weeks). I don't know how everyone else can stand to wait! Two weeks is long enough to drive me crazy ;-).

So who has the next scan? I go see my OB in an hour, I will know when it will be, it should be within a week or two!
Chrissy, are you doing the NT scan?

 

[chrissycoff]

had my scan yesterday and they both look great!!!!

baby a on left, is actually under baby b (right) baby a is the smaller sac, but man the sac looks just great! and baby a now only 2 days behind baby b, not 4 like it was last time! i am so blessed and relieved!!!! everything looks great! this was the nuchal scan!

sac looks totally normal!!!

 

[roxane1986]

Yay!!! This is awesome news!!

That is great!!! Congrats. My OB said with twins the golden time is between 12-28 weeks and I just can't wait to get there. It must feel so nice to be in the second trimester!

 

[chrissycoff]

is it second tri now? or at 13?

So interesting to read! At my 5 week scan, the gestational sac for Baby A was 12.4 mm and Baby B was 14 mm. I go back next week for the 8 week scan and am curious if they are going to be different sizes still.

Good luck to all you twin ladies!

I went to my OB appointment, I have an ultrasound tomorrow but DH told me he can't miss work tomorrow so to re-schedule, but I'm still talking to him, hopefully he'll be able too cause atleast I dont have a long wait! Heard the hb tho at the dr's office and dr said, wow baby is doing great!! And he told me there is no danger at all with dopplers, that we can play with it everyday all we want!! Yay!

Chrissy, it can go 12 to 14 weeks, it depends with which one you go, gestational or fetal so I dunno, it's really between 12 to 14 weeeks but on my ticker it says 12 weeks So we are in second tri!! hehe

I have heard 12 weeks but sometimes I think its the end of 12 weeks so people say 13, idk. I my ob said 12 so I am going to go with that and be happy 3 weeks to go.

there ya go ttc and at this point, since we know everything is ok chances of something going wrong are very very slim!!! You know when they say before 12 weeks is the critical stage, well that's because most people usually only have an u/s at 12 weeks and then thats when they find out the baby stopped growing but baby usually stops growing between 4 to 8 weeks that I see more often! You are out of that range!! That's what I kept telling myself after my 9 week u/s and seeing a healthy hb!

Plus, people always write on the internet when it is something bad, so that's why we see it like it happens alot but its just cause we dont see anything that turns out good, people don't often write anything if everything goes normal! ya know! So anyways, we are all good!!

 

[roxane1986]

nyba, they might still be different sizes but as long as they keep growing! We are all success stories with gestational sacs that were pretty far behind, up to 2 weeks behind.. so no worries!!

So went for a scan yesterday, ended up doing the NT scan.. Did not like this new place and did not like the tech, she takes her job way too seriously, she didnt say one word, we saw the baby for like 30 seconds, enough to see the hb and take a picture.. here is the picture, not a great picture either! I am so disappointed, I want to go to another scan somewhere else! But Sac looks good!! Baby is facing down, kinda funny lol I think he was sleeping, hb was at 150bpm! Baby measures 6.1cm and NT measurment was 1.6 so I dunno what that means but I guess its normal, Ive heard! Ill call my dr today though cause I saw the tech measuring another black sac, which could be an SCH, a cyst or the other embryo, maybe there was two, but the other one stopped developping a while ago I dunno, cause there was a little white spot in that sac! She wouldnt tell me anything, god this sucked But anyways I know baby is fine so thats very good!!

Here is the picture!

Very cute! I hate when they won't tell you anything!

 

[chrissycoff]

roxanne, that babe looks perfect!!! so glad all looks good! sorry about the tech, very frustrating! but the baby is great!!! so so happy for all of us!

and you are right, people are a LOT more likely to get online and tell about BAD situations that didnt turn out good than the good ones! that's why we have to keep posting even if the outcome for us all is nothing but GOOD (which it will be!)

ttc, next scan is when??? mine isnt until halloween!!!! seems like forever! but i am also dopplering every day!

 

[roxane1986]

Yay for dopplers!!!

 

[ttc1soon]

My hubby has to hide mine from me because i use the doppler too much. haha. My scan is on Thursday! I can't wait. I have had two miscarriages this year so I know the bad stories pretty well but so far this one has been great. I just found out I'll be classed as high risk but I don't care, that just means more doctor visits and more chances to see and hear the babies! I am not sure if it is because its twins, or my history of m/c or both, or what but I'll find out at my appointment Thursday. The only reason I know is because the referral was approved by my insurance company and I always get emails when they get something approved. I will continue to see my OB but also see a Maternal-Fetal Medicine Specialist.

 

[chrissycoff]

no updates here really. I had my 15 week appt last week, but no ultrasound. just doppler (which i do at home anyway )

I think i am starting to feel movement!!! like rolling around in the lower belly.
have my gender scan halloween!
hope everyone is well!

 

[ttc1soon]

I have my next ultrasound Friday for the NT scan at the Maternal fetal medicine office! I had one since I last posted but it was just my OB using the portable machine and so we didn't see very much. All she wanted was to see two babies and two heartbeats and then she was done. I am so excited to pass the 12 week mark and get that scan. I am even having a bump when I wake up in the morning! My uterus goes up to my belly button but it goes back down into my pelvis after I pee. I can't wait for movement, that is so exciting.
