The Ultrasound went okay. We think. We went to the practice at 9:30 a.m. and didn't leave til noon. We got the eastern european tech- who is difficult to understand, has great hair, and a decent amount of compassion (she remembered us from last year's sad baby situation).
She spent alot of time scanning the babies. We are always relieved to seeing the bladders were normal, and other important things like the 4 chambers of the heart. The tech had a tough time scanning the boy, because the girl was apparently pushing/kicking him. We are in trouble if it's starting this early.
Anyway, the doctor comes back. She scanned and said M's cervix looks awesome. She did say there was a conern that the girl's umbilical cord is hard to picture and there might be an issue of detatchment. Then there was just lots of medical terminology. I did hear her say "its common with twins." I guess the color from my face turned even whiter. She did try to say something reassuring to us. She then walked out.
The tech came over after the doctor left and was very kind. She said she sees it alot with twins and not to worry. She was very reassuring. She told me that I will have years to worry about the babies. It's kind of funny or pathetic that my partner is the one ON the table (and pregnant)is calm and I am the one that has the look of doom. Oh drama queen.
