I just got back from my most recent doctors visit and I was guessing that the babies were around 3 lbs each for a total of six pounds of babies inside me.
Nope.
I was wrong.
Baby A is doing well at 3 lbs 4 oz. Yay!
And baby B is uh 4 lbs 11 oz.
WHAT?!? So that means that with this measurement that are considered discordant twins. I have no idea what that means other than I have to back to the doctor next week.
The way that they measure babies can have a margin of error so their difference may not be that great if she didn't get the most accurate measurements but either way, I have to keep an eye on them.
The weird thing is that usually if you have dramatically different weights in twins, the concern is for the smaller twin because it means they aren't getting enough nourishment. But in this case, the concern is for the larger twin and why he is so big because baby A is perfectly sized and not too small at all (in fact he is bigger than normal as well).
So I want to be so happy that my boys are so big, I just want to make sure that baby B is ok and isn't growing our of control!
