Delivery at What week?

Capri22

Hello! I have been following this board daily, but have not yet introduced myself! I am currently pregnant with boy/girl twins and am so excited for this next phase in my life. I am just curious when everyone here delivered their twins. I know it can be all over the map ... wanted to see what everyone's experiences were with delivery.

I cant get my ticker to work --- but I am 25 weeks pregnant! 

Thanks!

I delivered my di/di identical girls at 36w5d via emergency c-section (both were breech).  36-ish hours of NICU time because I was GD so they had to monitor the girls and make sure their blood sugar levels were within an appropriate range.

I delivered my twins at 37w2d by c-section (breech Baby A, Baby B flipped) after going into labor a few days before I was scheduled to deliver. No NICU time and babies went home with me four days later.

I delivered at 37 weeks 1 day via c-section with mono-di girls.  

JEliseS

Delivered my di/di twin girls at 35 weeks exactly, via c-section. The night before, I was being monitored in L&D for a 12-hour urine test. About an hour and a half before I was supposed to get to leave (at midnight), my water broke on the hospital bed. The doctor didn't believe me... grrrr, but he did a test and sure enough, I was in labor!

37w3d, planned C-section, probably could have gone longer but our MFM doesn't like to go much beyond 37w b/c of placenta issues he has seen after that time.

28 weeks by c-section.  The average for twins is 35 weeks.

I delivered at 36w5d via c/s due to growth issues with Baby A. Baby A had no NICU time; Baby B was in the NICU for about 26 hours. My boys were di/di.

I delivered my b/g twins at 37wks even, day before planned c/s due to contractions being 2-3 mins apart and both babies being breech.

I delivered at 37 weeks 1 and 2 days. I delivered at night and spanned midnight.

I had zero complications - not even morning sickness - until 33 weeks when I had to go on Bedrest because of preterm labor signs.  

I was induced at 37 weeks because of pre-eclampsia. I delivered both vaginally. My birth story is on my blog - LIS.

Went into labor at 37 weeks 4 days with mo/di twins.  I had a med-free vaginal delivery in the hospital.  It was awesome.  My boyos were 7 pounds 4 ounces and 7 pounds 14 ounces.

Vaginal delivery of mono/di girls at 34w 1 day.  I was induced due to pre-e, HELLP and a few other problems.  The girls were in a step down nursery for 2 weeks.

I delivered at 36w1d after 3 months of bedrest for preterm labor. I delivered vaginally, though both babies had to be vacuumed out. (Baby A was stuck face up, and after 2.5 hours of pushing, Baby B went into distress. The doctor opted to not do an emergency c because we didn't have enough time.)
