Re: If you had one placenta...
Like I told you , they say one placenta is 100% identical but my nurses said I only had one placenta but my girls are soooo not identical, so the Dr. said the two placentas likely fused together to make it look like one.

Yes...
But they could also tell from the membranes that they were identicals. They were in one chorion so they had to be identicals..

Yes they were identical and yes you are at a higher risk of TTTS. I was monitored very closely especially after 20 weeks. My boys started developing it at 36 weeks and they delivered them at that time.
Feel free to FM me with any questions.
Congrats!

Re: If you had one placenta...
YES.... I worried about TTTS the whole time but it never happened. My biggest problem was preterm labor but they monitor you so carefully, try not to worry!
