23 Weeks
I promise I'm not going to start doing this every week. But I wanted to follow up on last week because things have improved! Thanks so much for your prayers and support! Colin's fluid level was up almost 1 cm, which sounds like not much but it takes him further away from the 'danger zone,' so to speak. And J.J.'s growth has slowed a bit, which is actually a good thing. Now the two babies' growth 'discordance' (this is an important term in the mo-di twin world) is at 14%, which is not great but not bad enough to make the specialists nervous! I still have to go back next week, but if the amniotic fluid and blood flow dopplers look reassuring for the second week in a row, then I can go back to every 2 week ultrasounds, and I'll go back to thinking that maybe I'll be able to carry these babies into the mid-30 week range without some sort of surgical intervention or emergency cesarean. That's what we're going for. Thanks again for taking this crazy journey with me. I really appreciate it.

Wonderful news! Post every week - or even every day! I always enjoy your updates.
I am so glad that God has no time table and allows me to retroactively pray! I just saw all of this!! Thinking of you and the boys and praying for boat loads of fluid!!!!
Sending good vibrations from Austin...
