Anyone else diagnosed with Twin to Twin transfusion syndrome?

Question

We found out a few weeks ago our babies have different sacs, but share a placenta (so there is a greater chance one baby would get more blood, nutrients etc then the other).. I didn't read too much into as my doc cautioned me against Googleing it (I should have listened) Anyone been though this  or going through it now? Just looking for a peace of mind, all I've come across so far are tough stories 😔

Answer

Currently 29 weeks pregnant and found out 2 weeks ago I am having mono/di girls and one of my girls is 20percent bigger than the other. Getting watched close. I pray it doesn't get any worse. The laser surgery scares me to death.

Answer

My girls had stage 3 TTTS. it developed very quickly and we traveled about 6 hours to have a procedure called laser ablation done and it saved their lives! We are currently 28+2 and will be delivering at 32 weeks via c section due to babies becoming mono mono after surgery! It's been a scary ride but they have been little fighters! Stay positive and make sure you see a high risk dr! My regular ob missed it!

Answer

I am also pregnant with mono/di twin boys and am currently 30 weeks. My doctors check for tts every 2 weeks since I was 12 weeks and luckily the boys have been tts free! Don't stress your twins will be just fine👶🏼👶🏼

Answer

I am having mono/di and was told about the risk and why I'd be monitored more closely. The MFM warned me to really only read what was on the tttsfoundation.org site but it still scares me. I am 25 weeks and haven't developed it yet - I go in for weekly scans to check fluid and cord flow.
