Anyone have a twin measuring big?

I'm currently 31w 4d with di di b/g twins. I had my third growth ultrasound yesterday and baby a took a huge jump from the 48th percentile to the 91st. Estimated weight is 4lbs 9 oz. baby b stayed consistent at the 48th where she was 4 weeks ago. My type 1 diabetes is well controlled but I wonder if it could still be from thAt but then why wouldn't it effect both babies? I just wanted to see if anyone had experience with a larger twin and what the ob's concerns were. I don't see my ob until next week.

Re: Anyone have a twin measuring big?

  • My baby A around 24 weeks started measuring bigger than baby B. At one point he was estimated to be over a pound bigger than his brother. At 37 weeks 5 days he was born at 7 pounds 13 ounces. He was exactly two pounds heavier than his brother.

  • Thank you!!!  That helps a lot actually.  Did you go into labor on your own or was that a scheduled c-section?

  • Once A flipped my OB cancelled my csection and changed it to an induction. My water broke the night before my induction at 37 weeks 4 days. I did end up having a csection.

  • Not yet. Both my b/g are measuring 17w2d at 16w1d (yesterday). At your gestation,
  • It's probably harder to tell w twins. Accurately I mean.
