Week 29 + 1 Day

Its Tuesday morning and Tricia just got back from her daily tests.  We are happy to report both babies passed their BPP tests and they did it right off the bat.  This is much better than some of our earlier tests when it took them over 20 minutes before they showed breathing activity - trust me - it is very stressful to just sit and watch and wait for your baby to breath while you have no way to help them.

Surprisingly, the donor's umbilical artery flow was showing some normal flow today in addition to absent end flow and reverse flow.  We have not seen any normal umbilical flow like that in our donor in many weeks.  We are not sure what it means and it could just be a fluke reading, but it is nice to hear things are looking normal for a change, even if it is just for a few seconds.
