The girls and I need T & P, please
I went to MFM this morning and the babies bellies are still measuring small; he said that is normally ok, since they are twins, but wanted to check something else while they were scanning.
Twin B has an Increased Placental Resistance - which from what I gather is something like one of the vessels in the umbilical cord are becoming constricted for some reason - no one knows why; this in turn increases the stress on the baby and that makes her "blood pressure" go up. The Dr. said that there is nothing that I need to do differently. He said sometimes this resolves itself, but sometimes it doesn't. I will now have to see the MFM at least once and week, and if it doesn't resolve in about a month, then I will be admitted and they will begin to strengthen the babies lungs with steroids, I think, and deliver them early. I'm not sure how early, though.
I am scared. And while I still have that hope that things will resolve itself, I still worry. Can you guys just think some happy thoughts and send them my way, please?
Thank you. Amelia and Abigail appreciate it, too.

Lots of T & P being sent!
Beautiful names! Maisy's middle name is Abigail, so I'm quite partial to it, and I've always loved Amelia as well. They go together so nice.
I'm going with the "resolves itself" option.
healthy baby vibes X2, keep us posted when you can.
