Well I've been for my 17wk scan although they dated me at 16+5wks. It was really just a check up but I'm glad to say that the babies are fine. They have plenty of fluid around them & both bladders were present. We couldn't see what sex they were because they had their backs to us & kept wriggling around.
Its so funny to see them twisting & turning on the monitor. Twin 2 kept kicking Twin 1 in the head, well, that's what it looked like. Obviously, its not hurting Twin 1 but they are both so active. I've been feeling little movements here & there so its going to be fun & games when they seriously start to grow AND kick me for real.
I've to go back in 2wks time for another check up of fluid & bladders, then back the next week for the BIG scan. That will be the one were they check for Spina Bifida, check the bladders once again etc, etc. Then after 20wks my consultant reckons I will be on 2 weekly scans from then on.
I'm glad they're monitoring me closely and it gives me a chance to see how much they've grown since the last time.
I did get pictures this time but they weren't so clear so I'm not going to upload them. Have to wait till the next time!!!!

Oh, this is so exciting. Naughty children - not sitting still so you could check out whether they are boys or girls. I hope this doesn't bode for them being flippin awkward all the time!
