    Wow this thread has picked up some pace

    BG & Possums congrats on your fantastic scan results its so nice to see that little babys heart flickering away!

    Megan - Good Luck on monday i am sure bubs will just be perfect! Is this 12 weeks?

    Huge to everyone and i will try and stay more upto date!

    Things here are good i have one week left at work which is why my posting has been minimal i have my replcement looking over my shoulder everyday and by the time i get home all i want to do is sleep!

    We had a check up yesterday and babies are perfect, belly is measuing at 38 weeks which is why i am so uncomfortable and am getting braxton hicks all day everyday ranging between 10 - 20 mins apart and they do bloody hurt whoever made up the rumour that they dont! Our presenting twin is head down so we are now slightly getting the chance to think about a vaginal delivery which is a little daunting thinking i have to push these two out in the next 6 weeks! Its too late to turn back now!

    Have a lovely weekend!

    Thanks Janie. see my Ob tomorrow to discuss results and the next step etc.

    megan- good luck for your scan

    hi everyone else.... hope you are doing well.

    Just wondering ladies...if you had an early scan (6-7 wks) did you have another scan before the 12 week mark too, or wait until then? Not sure what to expect happens next.

    Hi Possums... I am going to a private OB and he does a scan just in his room each time I go. So after my early 6 week 3 day scan with FS, I then had an 8 week scan with OB. Next was the proper 12 week scan and then on Monday next week we have our 16 week appointment with OB who will do another quick scan.

    So I think all in all it depends on your OB. I hope yours does the scans each time you go... it is truely amazing to see how much they change. At 6wk3day, mine looked like a little worm, at 8 weeks it looked like 2 round blobs, and then at 12 weeks - a real baby!
