30 Week Ultrasound

We had our 30 week ultrasound today and everything is well. The babies are healthy which great news. The babies are a bit larger than normal and weigh about 1.9-2kg which is about the weight they should be at 32 or 33 weeks. Mitch was bigger than normal at the same stage but we don't know if he was as big as these two are. Either way, Meeks is carrying around a whole lot of baby, placentae and amniotic fluid. In fact she is carrying around about the same amount of baby as she was when Mitch was born and you have to add a second placentae and some amniotic fluid on top of that. No wonder she is tired and gets a sore back! She is continuing to have difficulty sleeping which is not helping.

The twins weren't being terribly cooperative so there are no cool 4D ultrasound pictures of them like last time.

So far there is no sign of the itchies which she had last time although the next two weeks will be key as that is when the problems started to kick in with Mitch.
