Twin delivery

how many months when you delivered your twins? I'm getting really anxious to get these babies out of me- the discomfort and pains are so severe. My ob won't schedule a c section until I'm at least 38 weeks but I'm so ready for them to make their appearance and I'm only 34 weeks and 3 days

    32 weeks and 1 day. Goal was 34 weeks and 1 day. Trust me, keep them in as long as possible. The NICU is no joke. That being said, you're at a good point. I was told twins average 35.5 weeks so you're really close. Good luck!!

    I was 37+2, we were planning 38 weeks but the twins were measuring big and my MFM said they needed to come out. Have you tried a deep bath tub or going to a pool? It really helped me get some relief from the extra weight and pressure.

    37w1d. It was scheduled but my twins weights were discordant. One spent a week in the NICU. I know it's uncomfortable, but keep those babies cooking as long as possible!!!

    TTC for 8 years.
    Started in 2008 with timed intercourse, ovulation testing, no official monitoring.
    OB-GYN recommended Clomid and timed intercourse, attempted for 6 straight months.
    First surgery June 2009 (OB-GYN): diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis and large hydrosalpinx on right tube.
    Second surgery (July 2009, RE performed this): Right tube had to be removed, lots of adhesions removed.
    Attempted "trying on our own" as per RE recommendations, unsuccessful 5-6 months.
    HSG performed December 2009: left tube open.
    February 2010: started Femara and timed intercourse, attempted 6 months, no BFPs.
    Took a break for a while.
    January 2011: started IUI process, ovaries never properly responded to medications, 6 failed attempts, never actually completed an IUI.
    Took 2012-2014 off due to depression and frustration (side note: did complete grad school to become a nurse practitioner- great distraction).
    2015: started seeing RE again, went through tons of testing and HSG, left tube now blocked, only option is IVF.
    September 2015: Started first official IVF cycle, cancelled in October due to large cyst on left ovary.
    October 2015: started on birth control for 2 months.
    December 2015: attempted to start another IVF cycle, cysts on both ovaries on initial ultrasound, left was huge, cancelled to aspirated cyst.
    January 2016: Cyst back, surgery for ex-lap, cyst and adhesions removed.
    March 2016: Attempted second IVF cycle, estrogen way too high, cyst back, cancelled again.
    April 2016: Third attempted IVF cycle, 7 eggs retrieved, 2 mature (but not great) embryos made to fresh transfer, neither implanted.
    May-Sept 2016: Break to regain sanity.
    Sept-Oct 2016: Attempted fourth IVF cycle, very successful, cyst still on left but we ignored. 7 mature "great looking" eggs retrieved, 4 mature embryos made it to day 5 transfer. Transfer aborted due to large amount of endometriosis fluid in uterus.
    FET of 2 embryos completed on 12/12/16.
    12/22/16 1st Beta 179 BFP!!!
    12/24/16 2nd Beta 449!!
    EDD 8/30/17 with two girls!!!!!

    Audrey (4lb 8oz) and Olivia (6lb 6oz) born 8/10/17!!

    I was 33w and 1 day and my little ones spent 3 weeks in nicu. My doctor scheduled a c section at 37 weeks. But we had complications from 22 weeks on so we were happy with 33.
