I am in 32 weeks with momo twins with no issues till now.my ob has left the decision to decide on vaginal or c-section?pls advice which is safe/better

Twin delivery: If the first baby isn't head down then c section would be the route to go. If you have mono-amniotic twins then the risk of still birth is high enough to warrant a scheduled c section. If you mean diamniotic monochorionic and your Ultrasounds and antenatal testing is normal with 1st baby head down then it is fine to try vaginal birth with the understanding that baby #2 may need a c section

Is it safe to use Rephresh vaginal gel in the second trimester? My OB recommended it as I get recurring BV and thought this might help in-between occurrences. When I do have BV, I take the antibiotic.
