does not sound worried, but it seems a little weird........like how far can my body stretch????

That's very normal. With twins you usually measure 4-8 weeks ahead of where someone that's pg with a single baby measures.

I'm also wondering how much more I can stretch!

It's perfectly normal. Almost all twins measure 4 to 10 weeks ahead of singletons (depending on the positions of the babies).

They measured my fundal height today too, but didn't give me the number, just said that "yep, you're measuring big"! This doc in my office is funny! I actually hope he's the one on call when I deliver.

I think we can stretch further than we realize!

That sounds normal! I also measured 40 weeks at my appt on Wednesday, the day before the picture in my siggy was taken. Our bodies are doing amazing things!

I just am dreading nicu time.

Completely normal -- they stopped measuring me at one point because the doctor joked he had "run out of tape," lol.

Perfectly normal

And FWIW, I don't think your fundal measurement will be related to NICU time so just don't stress and put your feet up mama.

Mine was 30 this week at my 20+ week appt so I'm pretty sure it is normal> I've seen women on here who have measured 50 around the time of deliver so I think you can stretch more (fortunately or unfortunately

). don't stress, like pp said, go put your feet up, hydrate & relax! (easy to say, right?)
