1st Perinatologist Appt

On thurs.  It was 2 hrs!  We had an u/s and saw our little one's moving around- they look good.  Measuring 14 wks and 13 wks, 2 days.  They don't want them to be too far apart in measurments so I will be monitored via u/s every 2 wks!

Anyone else seeing the peri?

    I don't see a regular OB - I just see an MFM.  I wouldn't trust anyone else!!  He's fantastic at twin vaginal deliveries.

    Seeing your babies every 2 weeks is fun, huh?

    Yep, I'm at a peri/MFM as well as my OB.  Right now, I'm on a 4 wk schedule but I'll be dropping down to a 2 week schedule soon.  I love going  - their equipment is so much better than my OB's!  :)

    Ladies- thanks for the insight.  Are you babies measuring close?  Were they ever measuring a few days apart like mine?

    Mine were almost exactly the same early on - always within a day or two of each other.  As they've gotten bigger, they differ more.  Baby A (boy) usually measures about 5-6 days ahead while B (girl) measures 2 or 3 days ahead.

    I  saw the peri at 12 weeks and the LOs were measuring about a week apart. He didn't see any need to see me though, until, week 17!

    Great info to know!  Thanks again ladies.

    jillcanada- Also good to know, do you know if your twins are identical or fraternal?

    I see a MFM exclusively. I was on a 2 weeks schedule but now I go weekly. My fraternal baby (boy) has always measured bigger than the girls until recently where he and baby B are equal. Baby A is small because she has a velamentous cord insertion...so it's expected.
