Is it even possible to drop with twins? I have a c-section scheduled for 2/17. I have had small contractions on and off for a week. I am pretty sure in the last few days I have dropped. I feel like I can breathe a little easier (dont get me wrong it is still very difficult!!) My lower stomach is swollen and very painful. How much time do you think I have. Could I still make it to the c-section? I have been extremely thirsty also!! Is this another sign. I am driving my self nuts!!!
I guess I know the answer but this anticipation is killing me. not to mention the pain and how uncomfortable I am. I know that every pregnancy is different and no one will know!
Thanks for any thoughts and listening to my ramblings!
Re: dropping?
I had people tell me I dropped with my twins but honestly, it was hard to tell. My belly was just so big! And there isnt really any way to know if you will make it to the c-section or not. I walked around at 3-4cm dilated for 3 weeks and every time I went into the OB, she couldn't believe I hadn't went into labor. I even arrived at my induction at 4.5 cm!
I hope the time until your c/s goes quickly!
The only reason why I feel like I have is that I can take a deep breathe like all the way in and all the way out. I have not been able to do that for months. I am only 4'11'' so there is not much left over room. Also by baby A has always been low but boy did she get even lower. I could not sleep last night. I kept thinking my water was going break. I just need to get over it and just let nature take its course. I am just gettting excited. it is getting so close.
Thanks for your thoughts!
