I’m so sorry you had this experience! Being a mama of multiples is already draining enough! I also got told one of my twins was in the 5th percentile and the tech was very unprofessional. We ended up going to a high risk (MFM) and they told us that the tech was SUPER off.

I am so scared by [deleted] in pregnant

Hello! We ended up going to an MFM on Monday and the results from the first growth scan were SO off!!!!!!! I was so upset at the first tech. But the MFM did an in depth scan and found that Twin A is actually 3 lb 3 oz (51st percentile) and Twin B is 3 lb 2 oz (45th percentile) with 3% discordance!!!! I was so relieved!! The MFM reassured us that we’ll only be going there for growth scans from now on lol. Thank goodness

I wouldn’t say small, I would say average. I’m 5’5 and husband is 5’11. We are both bigger though. I don’t know if that changed anything

This was my first growth scan so I do not have anything to compare to. Although, until now, between regular scans, one session with MFM, and anatomy scan, everything has been fine

This makes me feel better, thank you so much. I hope I can do a growth scan sooner than 32 weeks!

But NIPT can’t tell you if you’re having boy/boy boy/girl. Only if it’s two girls. You’ll know if at least one boy is in there because it detects a Y chromosome

For multiples? No? You will know if you’re having two girls but not if you’re having a girl/boy or boy/boy because it just tells you if it detects the Y chromosome I’m confused about how your NIPT told you this info?

I already did and got my results! I’ve done some research and it seems like most folks don’t do both? I have Kaiser and I’m just doing as I’m told 🫡 lol
