A, B, C
When I go to the Dr's and they take measurements and heartbeat rates and all the label the babies A B and C. Baby C is the boy that is not a twin, then the twins that share a placenta (the girls) are A and B. Every time I have been to the Dr's we can see Babies B and C clearly with plenty of room around them but Baby A is always tight and squished in her spot. I made a comment to the nurse today and she checked it a bit more clearly. Turns out that Baby A is smaller than the other two and though her measurements are acceptable at this point a few of them are close to bordering too small. When they measure the fluid in the sacs of each of the babies they consider anywhere from 2-8 safe. Well Baby A's fluid was only 3.1 and Baby B's was 7.5. Normally those would both be alright but because they share a placenta the dr is concerned that B is getting more bloodflow than A and therefore could potentially harm both of them.
The Dr did say it was too early to tell just yet and that everything could be fine and even out on it's own. I made an appointment to go back next week so we could get the new measurements and make sure everything is going smoothly. Hopefully next week we will find that everything is normal and there are no problems. I thank you all in advance for you prayers for the safety of all the babies as well as for me. This baby picture is not from one of the triplets but it shows what the babies should look like right about now.
