We had an ultrasound last week with Dr. Frazier in Springfield where they checked out both girls and made sure every organ was present and functioning ok. They both look great with no real signs of Spina bifida. The Dr. said that because my level of AFP was only 4.47 and the cut off is 4.00 that they should be fine. However, we will be watched very closely from now until they get here. I will be averaging an ultrasound every 4 weeks and at the end will be getting fetal monitoring for 20 mins every week. Average twins are born between 34- 37 weeks so everyone be prepared because they might be showing up earlier than expected. :)
Our new Dr. in springfield is Dr. Stanzyck. I think he is really going to be a great move for us and is into every detail. He delivers about 90 % of his own cases and is very knowledgable about our case already. We are so excited to meet these two little girls as I have already noticed that they both are totally different. Morgan is my laid back girl who is not camera ready. Her back is always towards the camera and she is totally mellow. Mackinzie is my wild child. She is definately a little show off and has no problem being center of attention. We will see how it really goes when they get here but so far that is my prediction. Mackinzie is about 10 oz and Morgan is 8oz... which is quite normal for twins. Our next appointment is on the 18th and 19th of May where I will get a basic check in with Dr. Stanzyck and have another ultrasound.
