Early delivery, high cord pressure

Hi, I'm about 34 weeks (will be on Saturday) my T2 has dropped off the bottom of the chart. She only put on 4oz in the two weeks since the last scan.

I've had steroids today and will have the second injection tomorrow plus another Doppler scan. The cord pressure for T2 was off the scale high.

Anyone experience of this? I think the consultant will decide what's happening tomorrow but I'm worrying.

Will they actually deliver at 34 weeks?

Ive replied on your other post but not sure if you'll see it. If you're cord flow isn't right then it is safer to deliver them at 34 weeks. Very similar thing happened to me (full story on the other thread) and my girls are fine. They were tiny at 3lb5 and 3lb9 but spent only 20 days in NICU mostly learning how to suck in order to feed.
