Hi, I'm expecting dcda twins this summer after a lot of fertility treatment. At my last consultant appointment I was told that I would be induced at 38 weeks if babies haven't arrived by then, would have to have an epidural and give birth in theatre.
I am terrified. I am going to request an elective c section, I know there are risks with this too but I feel that they are more of a controlled and planned risk than the risks of a natural birth with twins.
Have any of you requested a c section, did you have to fight for it? Any birth experiences with twins would be really helpful too. Thanks
