Hello! I’m 31+5 with Di/Di twin boys! On Thursday last week(31+2) I went to my local hospital for my routine weekly iron transfusion. During this 2 hour transfusion I started having contractions, I was sent to the birthing unit(L&D) for an NST. I had not felt twin B move in 2-3 days at that point but I was convinced by the nurses line that as long as I could feel one baby the other one was most likely fine and just not as “strong”. I went from having two very very active babies to one baby not moving for days at a time and another baby moving non stop all the time. When I mentioned the low fetal movement from one baby only I was immediately sent for an ultrasound which showed that baby B has low amniotic fluid and that baby A is very far down in my pelvis that they couldn’t see his face on the ultrasound. I was sent back up to the birthing unit to await the ONE dr that is on call(thanks Canadian health care) I waiting several hours with still zero movement from B. After 6.5 hours of being on the monitors I’m told to go home and try not to go into active labour, contractions were every 7-9mins and showing up on the monitors. I was told that I needed to come back on Monday(today-it’s 1AM) bc that’s when my dr is the one on call and she can access what she feels is appropriate. Other side note I was given the first dose of steroids on the Thursday and the second dose on Friday. I have been having contractions since Thursday and they just keep sending me home saying they don’t feel comfortable doing anything as I’m high risk and they aren’t my dr. I know it’s not the smartest thing but I’ve gone down the google rabbit hole for low amniotic fluid, is TTTS possible with didi? Google is very contradicting! I can’t sleep and haven’t slept much since Thursdays ultrasound. They just kept saying that there’s two heartbeats so that should be enough reassurance until Monday. I am terrified. B still is not moving. I’m terrified I’m going to go in there tomorrow and there’s only going to be one heartbeat. I don’t know what to do. My water has not broken. Just Bs is low and A is normal. Please just tell me what to expect!
