Polyhydramnios?

I'm 25 weeks with mono-di twins. I have been seeing an MFM since 13 weeks and getting almost weekly scans to rule out TTTS. Now that we are nearing the end of that risk range, I was feeling more comfortable. However, at my scan last week Baby A's fluid measured above 9 and Baby B was at 7.8. My doctor (who I love and trust) said that he would not be concerned until the fluid levels went above 10 or the difference between the babies became a lot more significant. I go back tomorrow for a check.

 By the way, my boys look great right now and are growing well and moving all the time. I have not had my GTT, but it isn't for a few more weeks. I had read that GD can cause polyhydramnios, but so can a twin pregnancy.

Was wondering if anyone else had experienced this?
