Went to see Dr Carmody today for the 12 - 13 week scan. We had this lovely lady that did our ultrasound. Here is the first snaps of Possi and Billi. Possi is Twin 1 and Billi is Twin 2.Both at 13 weeks are very healthy.
Heart beats - 165 & 169
Length - 66mm and 70mm
Possi wasn't really to interested in us today and was more interested in sleeping. Took the lady around 10 - 15 mins of nudging my stomach and me coughing for Possi to turn around so we could see the arms and legs etc.

This is Billi. Billi has already implanted "himself/herself" as the dominant twin. Taking the top bunk and stretching out as much as possible. Billi was also often hogging the limelight getting into Possi's pictures.

As there are two placentas and two sacks the likelihood that they are identical are reduced. Around 70% of this criteria are non-identical whilst there is still a small percentage of identicals. We will just have to wait to find out the sexes to maybe be a little clearer. If we have a boy and a girl they are not identical. Otherwise we have to wait until they are born.

This is Possi. Possi did not really want us to visit today. He/She was much happier to just curl up in a ball and sleep.

Whats next?
