A 26-year-old woman, gravida 1, with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus comes to the office at 33-weeks gestation, reporting decreased fetal movement for 1 day. She is found to have poor glucose control, with serial blood sugar levels greater than 150 mg/dL. The fetal heart rate on the nipple stimulation test is non-reactive. The baseline rate is 140/min, and late decelerations are observed in the first 30 minutes of the test with each contraction. The next step in management is
A. a biophysical profile (BPP)
B. delivery
C. a nonstress test (NST)
D. a contraction stress test (CST)
E. a repeat nipple stimulation in 24 hours

NST --> if non-reactive --> do vibroacoustic stimulation --> persist non-reactive --> BBP
