Anyone have to be put out of work early or on bed rest?

Just curious if this is more common having twins.

My job was physically demanding, with long hours on my feet. I listened to my body and at 28 weeks I was ready to be done working. My OB said with my job they would have taken me off at 32. Just listen to your body.

I had a perfect pregnancy until 27 weeks and then had to go on bedrest until I delivered at 36. Bedrest is much more common in twin pregnancy but many women never go on it. I would plan on it by getting things done early etc but talk to your doctor. Hopefully you won't have to!

I am still carrying at 37 weeks 4 days and had no major complications or bedrest. Every pregnancy is different even with twins! Be prepared, but luckily you will have a complication and bedrest free pregnancy!

I bugged ob for bedrest starting at 30 weekd but he said no. So i took myself out of work at 33 weeks and stopped driving, everything including taking showers and getting dressed is exhausting so husband helps me out

Out of work at 33 weeks due to rising blood pressure, induced at 34+5. Everyone is different but I was miserable and could not have done my relatively sedentary job any longer than I did.

I am currently 35 and 5.  No major complications here either. I worried about complications since I started this pregnancy a little heavy but my BP and everything has been terrific. I am definitely slowed down and things are getting a little more difficult. I think the hardest part for me was the beginning of the second trimester cause I was really sick. But other than that- I have been good! Will deliver by induction next Friday-
