Here are some videos from the 20 week ultrasound. This one was a fast one, taking only about 5-10 minutes. We alternate (one every two weeks) between these fast "fluid checks" and the more detailed growth scans. The bebes are looking good, no sign of TTTS, which is excellent news!
Video 1: Claire (A) after some hard-to-see shots of her heart, you can see her laying on her side.
Video 2: Starts with a shot of the amniotic membrane--the paper thin flexible barrier which separates the bebes (it's a thin vertical-ish line). (And yes, they can punch/kick right through it!) You can then get a full shot of Nina (B).

Bonjour Claire and Nina,
It looks like you are being very feisty and actively growing and kicking!
It is at times challenging to call heads or tails ( a Vegas reference!) watching the 2 of you disguised as little blue aliens.
I was looking at Nina's perfect skull when I noticed an unmistakable beating heart in the middle of it: oh!oh! Is it too late to enroll for the spring semester at the UIA(Ultrasound Interpretation Academy?)
I was delighted to learn that the Doppler showed healthy blood flow in both Claire and Nina and that Jason had felt the first kick.
Keep on the good work, Mama and girls and Jason as best Daddy in a supporting role!(I still have the Oscars on the brain)
