try not to worry hun, they will keep a close eye on it and they did not seem worried x

Please try not to worry.... at least they are keeping an eye on it.

If you think about it I guess 2 twins cannot grow at exactly the same rate.... it may be that one week one is slightly bigger than the other (or has a bigger head) and then it catches up with the other.

Your still having your scans regularly right??? And she said not to worry, so try and put it out of your mind

I always thought that twins grew at different rates and one would usually be ahead of the other?

If they had been concerned they would have spoken to you,I'm sure its fine xxx
