New studies are showing that drinking carnation instant breakfast twice a day can not only reduce the risk of developing ttts, but it can also reverse it if it has started to develop. I drank it through my twin pregnancy, and they were born healthy at 37 weeks with no signs of ttts! Hope this helped

We also had a twin to twin transfustion. It was exacturated during the many ultrasounds throughout the pregnancy, at one point Twin A was 43% bigger than Twin B. They were g/g fraternal twins born at 34 weeks, at 4.13 and 4.1....it was exacturated. You also should look it up and use the website that the other mom gave you. dont jump to any conclusions, sometimes ultrasounds arent correct!
Good Luck, keep us posted!

My girls got it the last week of gestation how far along are you?? It is when one twin starts taking the nutrients from the other. They can be over loaded and the other undernourished. It is a slow process and they monitor it closely. they won't take the babies until it looks like they might be in peril. Mine came out a pound different (4.5 and 5.5) but were otherwise totally healthy.

When we found out our girls were at risk from TTTS, even though the Doctors and Nurses gave us a lot of advice www.tttsfoundation.org was very informative.
