Not horrible, but not great either.

Short post because I'm actually emotionally not doing well so I'm keeping things short and to the point right now.
The girls have been taking forever to pass their bpp's ever since 28 weeks. http://www.webmd.com/baby/biophysical-profile-bpp That link will talk about what a bpp is. They pass everything except breathing. My high risk dr said that once they get older they should pass those easily. This has not been the case. Avalee (B) passed last time easily but after 30 minutes Aubree still didn't breath and failed. or got a 6/8 which is a C. After that you need to do an NST to see if the girls will pass the NST http://americanpregnancy.org/prenataltesting/non-stresstest.html. The girls are also failing their NST's which means Aubrey got a 6/10 which is failing.  They seem to be sleeping a lot I guess but I talked to the Dr about possible placenta breakdown today and he said that's a possibility. We have checked fluid levels and done dopplers on the cords so we know that they cords are okay. We just don't know why they fail or it takes forever (over 1 hour) to pass a test when they are 32.3 weeks old. These tests should be easy to pass.

So according to my doctor there is no real concern to take them out just yet. They are just too little, but if this continues we will try to squeeze out as much time as possible when they are inside me and then we will get them out. Dr doesn't think that will be at 36 weeks the way things are going. He thinks more like 34. I'm still hoping for 35, but if things continue like this then I will start thinking more and more about pushing for an immediate delivery. It's reassuring that things don't look horrible on the NST, but not reassuring enough because with monochorionic twins there are a variety of things that can go wrong. The girls move all the time, but just not seeing the heart rate increase with the movement. So we will deliver soon, whether it be because my uterus gives out or because the girls aren't safe in there anymore.

The stress is really getting to me right now and I keep getting letters that require action right away (such as being denied medical coverage for my hospital stay, Mason's medicaid being taken away, a bill for some testing that was done here when we didn't know the doctor wasn't affiliated with this hospital but a hospital in Kansas and my coverage doesn't extend to Kansas). Not to mention missing out on months of Mason's life. So that's where things are at right now.
