It seems "absurdly good" is the catchphrase this time around. The doctor at the obstetrical ultrasound unit was very impressed with how well the babies are looking and said to keep on doing whatever we're doing since we're clearly doing something right. Yay!
Our boys are still solidly in the 50th percentile which is amazing news since that's compared to singleton babies, not other twins. The weight estimate for Baby A is 5.6 lbs. and Baby B is slightly bigger at 5.75 lbs., which means that even if they were born today they would not be considered low birth weight – which is not only wonderful news but a great relief.
Every day the babies spend baking increases the odds that we'll avoid the NICU and be able to take them home from the hospital with us. Hearing that they are already at such healthy weights makes me think it's entirely likely we'll do just that. : )
