12 Week 5 Day Ultrasound

We had an ultrasound and appointment with our Perinatologist on Tuesday and everything is looking great! They did a nuchal fold scan where they measure a pocket of fluid behind baby's neck to make sure it is within normal range, this is one of the signs they look at for chromosomal abnormalities. They all measured normal so no further genetic testing will be done, phew!! I hate those tests.

The babes were quite impressive to the sonographer who said if they continue to scan this great they might just be her favorites! Baby C did seem to have the most spunk this time around, he was moving all over the place, it was magical to watch. The US measured them all at exactly the same size- 13 weeks, which is also great news! They also noted that they were all drinking the amniotic fluid and their stomach, kidneys and bladder all appeared to be working away.

We don't see the Perinatologist until October 5th, after which we will have an US and appointment every-other-week. In the meantime, you can expect more pictures that we will get from going to Ben's work, the US techs there are happy to scan me- not many people get to see triplets very often. I will be checking next week again to see if the genitalia are prominent, at this last scan they were undifferentiated....I take this as a huge positive, I still have a chance that they will be girls! The tech gave me a 51% chance, I was so ecstatic and all Ben could do was laugh at me :)
