I'm having MCMA twins which we origionally thought was MCDA. I've been told they will be born via c section at 32 weeks. Has anyone else had babies born at 32 weeks as it worries me.

My twins were born at 30 weeks, they have done really well and thrived.

Not personally, our twins were delivered at 38wk and home the day after birth.
My SIL had her ds at 28wk, long time in nicu but he survived. A friend had her ds at 32wk, again lots of time in nicu. A horrid situation to be in but they will take good care of the 3 of you, good luck.

Congratulations! My twins were 34 weekers, no issues with breathing or feeding. Don't worry, you'll be in fantastic hands, NICU and SCBU are fantastic in my experience x

Mine were also 34 weeks DCDA - spent 10 days in NICU/SCBU - one was over 6lb and the other 4lb. I was able to establish breastfeeding and have had no issues

One tip is to see if you can get family to knit hats and cardigans etc - we couldn't find clothes small enough for our little twin so relied on a charity - Emily's Wish for very small preemie clothes

My twins were born at 33 weeks, they were tiny and needed help to feed at first but were only in incubators for about 2 weeks and home the week after, they are now grumpy but healthy teenagers. It is hard going having 2 tiny babies but the nurses will guide you. I wrote in a notebook while I sat between their incubators, takes me right back when I read it now and realise how far they have come

Hello I’m also pregnant with MCMA twins how are they getting on if you don’t mind me asking
Please don't allow this too scare you but I'm going too be honest as I believe honesty is the best policy. Unfortunately twin A suffered from SIUGR and passed away at around 19 weeks gestation. We was aware of his condition at 18 weeks and aware something wasn't right from 16. Baby B is 30 weeks gestation and is doing great. I hope your pregnancy is perfect :) remember my experience dosent exactly mean yours will be the same! We just experienced a rare complication. Remember! Rare ❤️
