28 week appointment & weight check

I had my 28-week appointment this morning and Baby A is 3 pounds and Baby B is 2 pounds 15 ounces.  I think that put them in the 61st percentile.  Fluid looks great and cervix was measuring at 4 cm.

I am up 33 pounds in 28.5 weeks.  I gained 7 pounds since my appointment 5 weeks ago, and my doctor said, "You hardly gained anything since last time."  He said everything weight-wise is perfect.  Oh, and I passed my 1-Hour GTT.  Yay!

I no longer need to go in for weekly fluid checks, which is nice.  I will go back in 2 weeks for a fluid/cervix check and then 4 weeks for a growth scan.  Starting at 32 weeks, I will have twice-weekly NSTs.

The plan is to do an amnio at 36 weeks to check lung development and if all looks good, we'll deliver soon after.  My Peri likes to deliver identical twins on the early side if all looks good, so that would put us around February 1st.  Crazy how quickly this is all happening now...  :)


After 2 rounds of IVF & 2 rounds of FET, we were blessed with identical twin girls!

    That's great - I had my 29 week appointment this week with the peri (I am week off at the peri somehow)  my babies are about that size and I am a week ahead of you so that's great!!!  My fluid was good, but they couldn't check my cervix since one of the heads was right there and she also told me if I am getting internals, they are much more accurate which really pissed me off, because I wanted a length check.  I like my numbers - couldn't they have done both?  I am really not settled knowing that they didn't do that since I was really waiting on that number.  I go to my OB next week and I get internals starting with my last appointment and then my appts are every other week until 34 weeks then every week.  No one has mentioned a NST - I have to ask about that one when I am there next week!  Fun to see someone so close in time to me - I remember you from the TTTC board.  Good luck and I am glad all is well!!!
