Identical!


Learned today that they're identical. In a nutshell, they know they're identical because they're in the same "main sac". Inside the main sac they are in their own individual sacs. I go back in 4 weeks to double, double confirm that they are in their own sacs; being in the same sac is called Momo twins and it is very dangerous because they can tangle their cords together with grievous results. BUT, she's pretty sure that she saw a separating membrane so we're good.
Heart Rates were 159 and 162! Perfect! They were also wiggling and flipping over...in the pic you can see Baby B flipped over during the scan.
All is well! Thank you!

Wow - what are the odds of getting identical? I totally assumed it was both embies that took! (not to be all doom and gloom and I'm sure your doc will watch for it, but makes sure to ask about TTTS)
