I am due to have my twin girls in a fortnight, mono-di. I have been told that the hospital will book me in for either induction or c section between 36 and 37 weeks. I have my appointment to set a date this Wednesday. At this stage twin 2 is presenting and head down, the other is breech but has moved around each week! I know the hospital will suggest an induced natural labour if they stay as they are but will recommend an epidural in case they have to turn the breech twin or provide an assisted delivery. If they were both head own they may let me try for induced labour with no epidural. I am wondering whether to ask for an elective c rather than face an induction and assisted delivery, if i have to have an epidural in any event.....v confused.
I would appreciate any voices of experience on this huge decision, just ish i knew which was going to be best!
