So yesterday I made it to 21 weeks. We spent the day at the MFM clinic getting an update. The ultrasound revealed that Baby A and Baby B are both still gaining weight and have healthy heartbeats. The internet tells me that the average weight for a baby at 21 weeks is about 12.7 oz. Baby A is 12oz and Baby B is 14oz. I am hoping that next time we go both babies could be above one pound.
Baby A continues to have cysts on the brain and had no measurable fluid. The membrane being stuck to the arm was not visible in this ultrasound, so fingers crossed that it was just a fluke last time.
Baby B looks well, no concerns noted.
We went over some of the things to be considered around viability and I was surprised as my MFM specialist's responses compared to what I have seen with other women. In the next few weeks I will have to do some research so that Lee and I can figure out what we are most comfortable with.
