Well folks we have made it to 25 weeks. This is a small relief because we have officially passed the week of viability for our little angels. We definitely have some busy little babies. They are moving like crazy which can drive me nuts sometimes, but is a constant reassurance that we are all alive and well.
I had another appointment yesterday. This was sort of a stressful appointment for me. Three weeks ago we discovered that Twin B was suffering from an unequal share of flow from the placenta. This is resulting in some deficient growth, and when it was initially discovered the deficiency was 18%. Three weeks later little B is at a 30% difference. Twin A is at approximately 1 lb 11 oz and B is at approximately 1 lb 3 oz. With this large of a difference they want to keep a little closer watch on our little one. We knew all along I would be relocating eventually and now the time has come. 34 weeks was our initial target date, but that is now out of reach. We are crossing fingers and saying prayers that little B will keep on growing and stay strong as long as possible.
Blood flow through cords still looks good and cords are staying minimally entangled. Development is also on track and we can still see B's bladder and kidneys (a good thing when there is a transfusion problem).
So this is au revoir to home for now and hello to Billings for what I hope is at least seven more weeks of good growth.
On a lighter note we did find out just before Christmas that we are having little girls and we couldn't be happier.

We could only capture a shot of Twin A on 3D, her sister is presenting breach and has her face turned away.

Will you be on bed rest in Billings? Either way, I'm so sorry! That doesn't sound like fun at all! I wish I could go up and spend time with you. I spent some time on bed rest with both my boys so if you need any advice I might be able to give something helpful. Also, I WILL be writing you a response about cloth diapers soon. It's on my to do list but I have a lot to say! :P In the meantime... Join CafeMom. It is an amazing resource for so many different things. And actually, if you join the cloth diapering group you will have tons of information. It is pretty overwhelming though and it's hard to really know what will work for you until you actually start using them. But it's certainly a start!
