18 weeks, 3 days
A bit of good news today- Baby B has grown a tiny bit. She is still measuring 3 weeks behind Baby A. Also virus tests came back negative from the amnio!
On another note- the couch is now my best friend. My peri put me on bedrest for the remainder of my pregnancy, 151 days (to 40 weeks) to be exact. So, I welcome any visitors or those wanting to give my wonderful husband a hand on housework. Our Peri thinks that the rest will allow more blood flow to the placenta and ultimately to Baby B in hopes that she will grow quicker. My cervix is still shortened, which is another reason for the bedrest.
On a lighter note- our little one's were moving around quite a bit today on ultrasound (pictures to follow, once I can get Scott to scan them for me) and Baby A had her foot/leg kicking or at least crowding Baby B. The typical- she's on my side! LOL! Please continue to pray for Baby B to grow quickly. Thanks to all.

May 20th ultrasound update
17 weeks, 4 days:
This is my first shot at blogging so here it goes....
Good news is that Scott and I are not carriers for CF (cystic fibrosis). Therefore our babies will not have CF. Praise God for these great results.
We had an extensive ultrasound and Baby B is still measuring 3 weeks behind Baby A. Our peri was wonderful and took alot of time to explain what he was thinking. The babies are not showing signs of TTTS (twin-twin transfusion syndrome), which is also wonderful. Our peri says that Baby B is not getting her 100% of the placenta and she needs to adapt to her environment and start growing. Therefore, the only thing we can do at this point is to pray and put all of our faith in God that Baby B will be OK. Ultrasound also noticed that my cervix is shortened. This is also not great, but we will keep monitoring it.
Please continue to pray for our babies. Thank you.
