Contraction Stress test

Tomorrow I will have a contraction stress test due to my boys failing their bpp and nst's so many times last week. I was having contractions constantly over the last week or so but today I haven't felt one. I really don't want to have a pit drip started tomorrow. Has anyone had a CST?

    Does massaging your nipples to produce the hormone really work?  I never had the test but reading says you can do that to get your body to release oxytocin.

    Nope doesn't do anything but make me leak. As much as I hate having contractions nonstop I would love to actually have them tomorrow. At the same time I haven't had them down to 3 minutes apart by themselves since I went into PTL at 27 weeks. So I have no idea on how tomorrow is going to play out.

    If they are that worried....shouldn't they just deliver you??

    I asked the same thing on Thursday. My MFM said she can tell they are getting enough oxygen and nutrients right now but my placenta's are breaking down very quickly now. My baby a keeps getting 6/10 and b gets 6/10 or a 8/10. A won't breathe on his bpp and on his NST's hes not getting 15 for 15's hes only doing 10 for 15's. B usually does fine on his NST"s but usually is to lazy to breathe on his bpp. That's really not anything new for him though. He usually will only breathe on every other one. Both babies are still really active and have great weights to them. So tomorrow is really testing their placentas but at the same time I'm scheduled for a c/s on the 27th. So I really won't be in labor. I'm still kind of confused on why we need to do it.
