    hey Mrs S- just wanted to send my stay put vibes for your bubbas
    my twins were born at 30 weeks- not ideal but they made it
    they spent 33 days in NICU/ICU so came home at almost 36 weeks - DS in NICU for 7 days and DD didnt go to NICU- straight to SCN!! Girls are a bit tougher lol

    please it would really be worth getting the ball moving to get into the city - either RWH, Mercy or Monash- they all have level 3 nurseries on premise- also the RCH has a level 3 nursery. They usually recommend a level 3 nursery under 34 weeks so even if you stay in melb till you pass that point

    a really good doc to get on board is the head of multiple birth and patron of Australian Mulitple birth ass. A leader in multiple births in melb!!
    perhaps even ring and explain what is going on and see what he recommends!!!

    twins at 31 weeks have between 80-90% of being fine! Not an easy journey but the longer they bake obviously the better

    for every one day inutero is 2 days less in SCN/ICU

    Hang in there hun and happy to speak/chat whenever you want to another twin mumma who has been there and done that!!
    hugs hun
    I reckon that's on the money, can you call and see what he recommends - even if it just give base the foot up the arse they need
