Update: Growth Appointment and Ultrasound

Yesterday we had our growth appointment and another ultrasound. We were anxious to get into this appointment to make sure everything is OK for us to go down to C.A. and we got the stamp of approval from the doctor! Both babies are growing perfectly on target although they weren't too photogenic yesterday. We did get a few snapshots (mostly of baby B), but not much to make out in the photo. Below are some of the 'stats' we were given.

Baby A (Girl):

• Position: Breech 
• Weight: 1lb 14 ounces
• 71% percentile (which per the doctor is impressive for twins)
• "Has a big belly" per the ultrasound tech. Must be all the ice cream she is making mommy eat.

Baby B (Boy):

• Position: Transverse (horizontal) with his head next to his sister's head 
• Weight: 1lb 11 ounces-- he is catching up to his sister! 
• 55% percentile (perfectly normal for twins)
• Still likes to show off his junk during the ultrasound :)  

Next on the list is our glucose screening (required between 26-28 weeks) which we will do after we are back from visiting family in California. I've heard this isn't particularly a 'fun' experience and after I heard the Dr. tell me I can't eat for 8 hrs before the test and that they load me up on a sugary syrup to test my blood, I looked at Michael and he asked if he had to go.. HAHA. He isn't getting off that easy. He said he'd make sure to have food for me for right after the testing- he knows how cranky I get when I'm hungry. Should be interesting.
