Hey there,
My wife is 34 weeks pregnant with Di/Di boys last Thursday we were sent to L&D triage to address high blood pressure (140s/90s). After labs we found that her urine marker for preeclampsia was just over the 0.30 reference range at 0.34. Today we went in for a growth scan and twin A measured in the 53rd percentile and was estimated to weigh 5.6lbs and baby B was in the 59th percentile and was estimated to weigh 5.9lbs. The doctor we met with said that my wife was showing preeclampsia without severe features now but that she expected severe features to show up soon. We will likely deliver in the next two weeks (36 or less weeks). Anyone else have a similar experience? Did you have NICU time? How can I best help my wife remain calm? Any general advice? Thanks!
