19 weeks 6 days

SURPRISE.....   We have DCDA (Dichorionic-Diamniotic) Twins..

What does this mean?  They each have their own placenta and their own sacks but we will not know whether they are identical until they are born.  The percentage weighs highly to being non-identical (fraternal - 2 eggs) twins but there is a small chance of identical if it was 1 egg that split between 0 - 3 days of conception.

Their gestation age was 18W & 4 Days which was recalculated to 19 weeks + 6 days as of the last scan.  It looks confusing because the scan shows the original gestational age without the correction.  They are still due 26th June 2013.

Twin 1 -  Its a Boy!!!

Yes - we are definately a boy but I have no photographic proof as they did not take a still shot!

Congratulations to all that guessed the sexes of the babies.  I guess the next game will be - When they will be born, Natural or C-Section (I am planning for Natural) and Weight, Length....


Whats next?
