You've already made it farther than I did, I had my boys at 32 weeks and 6 days. I had no real complications until the week before I had them. I was sent to the hospital from a doctors appointment on a Monday due to high blood pressure. While I was there, they noticed that I was having contractions. I was put on bed rest for that week and was having contractions on and off that week (none that I really felt, they showed when I had a non-stress test) and then that Friday my water broke and they were born that night.

Follistim+Ovidril+Metformin=BFP on 12/8/08 2 heartbeats-12/30/08 Betas- 10DPO-104 12DPO-274
34 weeks 3 days. I was great until my 31 week appt.- I had high BP that sent me to L&D for monitoring and then home on strict bedrest. On Thursday (34 wk 2 day) I was offically given the diagnosis of pre-e since they found protein in my urine. The next day I was having headaches and seeing "shooting stars" - my boys were delivered that night. They both spent 17 days in the NICU just to learn to eat.
38 weeks 1 day via scheduled c/s. I had no complications and worked until 36 weeks. I did experience painful swelling in my legs at the end, but thats all.
36w3d. My cervix started shortening around 22 weeks, but it was a rock star and held out, and likely would have held out even longer, but my blood pressure started creeping up. I was sent to L&D for my blood pressure, they did a 24 hour urine and blood work. Those results led to a c-section. Only one baby had to go to the NICU for 12 hours.
How long were your beautiful girls in the NICU? Or are they still? How are they doing? How much did they weigh at birth? Sorry so personal! The reason I ask is that I am having PTL now and wondering if my boys were born now, what we are looking at?? TIA!
Spontaneous Di/Di twin boys born at 34 weeks on 02/21/2011
38wks 1 day, no complications, scheduled induction. I had a 12 hour labor and avoided a C-Section. My girls were 3 min. apart. I worried my whole pregnancy about PTL and having the girls early then had to be induced! Good luck with the rest of your pregnancy!

We are on day 61 of the NICU. Sophia was supposed to come home tomorrow but had an apnea spell so that delayed us 5 more days. Ella was the smaller baby and has 3-4 more weeks they say. Sophia is great she was 2lbs 3 oz and is now 4lbs 4 oz, she is taking all her milk by bottles and is not on oxygen. Ella had a heart problem not related to being a preemie and was 1 lb 8 oz at birth and is now 3 lbs and 1 heart surgery down is doing really well. Good luck and pm me if you have any more questions!
Re: Moms of twins how far along were you when you delivered?
38w2d via scheduled c/s.
Had a few bouts of PTL between 30w and 35w, but those were controlled with procardia. Taken off at 36w, never had another contraction.

The babies were in the NICU for 2 weeks for keeping warm, eating and growing.
