During a growth scan they measure 3 things, the abdomen, head circumference and femur. These measurements calculate a percentile, the babies were around the 26th percentile a month ago and are now around the 14th. The doctor and midwife said that we shouldn't be alarmed, but they want a more in-depth ultrasound to really check for growth and the flow through the umbilical cords. They are very cautions with twins and so a week from today I will have an ultrasound done by an amazing perinatologist from University of Iowa Hospitals.
Based on their weights, movement and at 28 weeks my belly was measuring at 30 weeks, I just know they are growing and thriving and I think this ultrasound will give us all that peace of mind.
We are just about 29 weeks now...amazing!!! I seriously can't believe we are down to just over 9 weeks before these little peanuts will arrive. With January only a few days away, March 3rd (38 weeks) is literally just around the corner.
I text or talk to Sara and Jon almost daily, I love to hear their excitement, these babies are oh-so-loved already.
Will write again after the ultrasound.
