stop kicking your sister

We had our big 20-week anatomy ultrasound last Friday and we have two girls who are growing right on track! During this ultrasound, they take measurements of all the body parts, examine the chambers of the hearts, and, of course, confirm the genders. They are able to determine from the measurements that Twin A is 10 ounces and Twin B is 9 ounces.

Although I can't feel them moving yet, the twins were very active and moving all around. Twin B was kicking Twin A in the head repeatedly which we captured on this video of the ultrasound monitor. It's a little hard to see, but you'll see Twin A on the left and Twin B on the right. Twin A is facing to the right. Twin B is lying on her back curled up with her legs over her head. You can see her kicking Twin A in the head a couple of times and kneeing her in the nose towards the end. They are actually in separate sacs but the sacs are so thin, that it really doesn't cushion anything. It's a little easier to see if you click the icon on the bottom right of the video player to view in full-screen mode.

 Here are some other photos.
