At growth scan we found out the boy's placenta has a bad flow so he's now -22% in growth, which is as much they're allowing growth to differ. He is weighing 1500 grams (equivalent to 29+3) and she is normal at 1900 grams.
Now they're going to scan the placenta flow every 48 hrs from here on and next is tomorrow. If it gets any worse it will be delivery within 24 hrs.
I'm 32+0 today and I'm really looking for some experienced advice from other twin mummies who have been through this and preterm delivery as I'm scared beyond belief. I didn't expect this at all as all was fine at the 26 weeks scan. So quite shocked to be honest.
Any advice/experiences?

Update: So they arrived with an emsec 14/10. Caitlin Nieve Cenita at 2040 grams and Jamie Aidan David at 1540 grams.
They both doing well but need tube feeding. Caitlin needs help with her breathing so she is intubated but hoping to get out of that today
My water broke in the morning before we even got to the ultrasound scan at 1pm yesterday. So they decided it was time. Arrived at 9 am and 3 hrs later they were here
The OB we were supposed to see at 1pm was the head surgeon and once they were out and I stitched up, she said "well I can now have a long lunch as my 1 o'clock appointment won't be there" LOL
