Today I went to see my high risk doctor, Dr. G. I like going to him rather than my regular OB (Dr. Z) because he always does an in depth ultrasound and estimates their weights. As Dr. Z said last week, the ultrasound machine she has at her office is like a Ford and the one at Dr. G's office is like a Maserati so obviously a much better and more detailed machine!
Dr. G said everything still looks good! The twins are both above average in the normal range. Twin A (boy) is estimated at 3 lbs 15 oz so just 1 oz under 4 lbs. Twin B (girl) is estimated at 4 lbs 0 oz. Dr. G said they should continue to gain approximately 5 ounces each week and hopefully will be between 5.5-6 lbs by the time I deliver.
I don't have to see Dr. G again for another 3 weeks. I'll take that as a good sign that he doesn't think I'll deliver anytime before then.
Next week I see Dr. Z so we'll see what she says. Those appointments are pretty short and boring with not much to update though.
