Ricky and I had kind of a scare this week with the little girlys. All along we have known of the risk of something called a twin twin transfusion. Because I only have one placenta the twins run a high risk of one taking more blood, nutrients, etc. from the other one. Well, we had our normal ultra sound on Monday and we saw that London was for the first time smaller than Brooklyn. Normally with Identicals they are pretty much exactly the same size. So, of course the Doctor has to scare me and tell me I need to go see a specialist immediately because we may need to either do a risky surgery, take the babies now, or possibly lose London. So, yesterday morning we went to the specialist and luckily the girls are okay. London is a bit smaller but not enough to worry yet. They will closely monitor her and make sure the gap in sizes doesn't get bigger but for now she's good. This is a picture of London, we didn't get a good one of Brooklyn but at least we know she looks just the same. I'm so grateful everything turned out okay. Just the thought of possibly losing one of them was too much for me to handle!
