Hi everyone. I'm going to start a little with yesterday. I had a quick prenatal with Julia which we don't draw any real conclusions from as this pregnancy requires more expertise but I like doing it and it lets us connect and look at the little things, blood pressure and measurements etc. I am at 18 weeks and I measured 33 centimeters! wow no wonder I've been feeling so big! anyway I noticed that I wasn't getting the movement that I had been getting on my left side and although the Doppler isn't that accurate with 3 heartbeats we tried anyway and were fairly sure that there was a heartbeat there and that set my mind somewhat at ease. So then I go to my ultra sound today and I found out why my baby isn't moving so much. OK again we have Babies A, B, and C turns out we have a case of twin to twin transfusion between Babies A and C the blood is not flowing correctly and Baby C isn't getting what it needs to grow in result baby A has a bunch more fluid and Baby C has almost nothing, making it sucked up against the side and it really cant move. The size was another big issue babies A and B are the right size.. 18 weeks and Baby C is 15 weeks in size. meaning that sense my last ultrasound baby C hasn't grown at all. So where do we go from here? we really don't have more then one option to go to Seattle and do a procedure than they try to laser the place where the 2 babies blood flow connects they say that there are allot of successes with this and our only other option is do nothing which could make us loose at least the 2 babies. anyway i will know more soon don't know when Ill have time for updates but please everyone. Pray I know God can do anything so we will see where He wants to bring us
