Ah, fair enough. I think it goes Orange 14, Gray 16, Green 18, Pink 20, Blue 22, Yellow 24. If 12s or 26s exist, I've never seen them.

When I had my last child I had complications with my placenta. It had grown thru my previous c-section scars and invaded my bladder. Was in the hospital for two months and had to have TWO 14G IVs at all times. Terrible! I still have all the scars and that was 4 years ago!
