That's it really! 20 weeks with DCDA boy twins and starting to think about the next half..
I would be very grateful to know how many weeks you got to and type of birth you experienced

I thought I was uncomfortable when I started this thread around 20 weeks! Now 34+2 and found a new meaning for uncomfortable! Twins still cooking away.
Great to hear all your birth stories with your twins!

Thanks again X

37 +4. I was induced as BP went up a little bit. I only had my waters broken though no drugs to help labour start. 6 hours later I was at 9cms when my lovely T2 decided she wanted out now!!!! so I had an emergency c section. All fine in the end though and went home after a few days. Congrats

37.5 ELCS with MCDA twins. I don't think they would have stayed in much longer as I was having a lot of Braxton hicks and midwives thought I was in labour when I arrived for section. BP was on the rise too.

36+2. An elective C-section but turned out I was already dilated and having contractions by that point! Babies much smaller than scans suggested (4lb6 and 5lb - scans said 5lb7) and despite steroid shots have both been in NICU on oxygen.

38 weeks because I was booked for an ELCS. Even the consultant didn't think I would last that long. But the upshot was DT1 was 6.14 and DT2 6.3 and we were out of the hospital the next day.
