Did you make it to 38wks? How early did everyone deliver?

twinmom2012 · November 2011

I'm 30 wks now and scheduled for a c-section at 38wks. Just wondering if I will actually make it that far or what the general average is to deliver twins. I'm thinking more like 36 weeks or so... Christmas time!

rachelle2824 · November 2011

37 weeks for me. Average is 35 weeks based on some research and 36 based on others. You could definitely make it 38 weeks, lots of women do! GL

jxd215 · November 2011

37 weeks for me as well.

ougrad1 · November 2011

Average is 34-36 wks. I delivered via repeat section at 34.6 wks. Hudson was 5.9 lbs and Landry was 4.2 lbs.

Rangergal9 · November 2011

I made it to my scheduled c/s at 38 weeks 1 day.... They tried to get me to wait until 39 weeks when my regular OB would be on call at the hospital since they had a last minute schedule change, but I said heck no, get these babies outta me!!!

jedrisco · November 2011

i had c section at 36w6d.

addison1060 · November 2011

I was scheduled for a c-section at 38 weeks but went into labor at 36w4d and had a c-sec at that time.

MamaCrystal · November 2011

I was induced at 37w6d. New Year's Eve babies for me! : )

MrsCali_Bride · November 2011

I was scheduled for 37w5d but A had other ideas and I delivered at 37w2d.

blondek8 · November 2011

I was induced at 37w6d. The guys were 6.12 & 6.1

KarliB84 · November 2011

I was induced at 37w3d

TheNewFry · November 2011

I was induced at 37w, 5d due to high bp and low fluid around baby b.

LucyRicardo3 · November 2011

I made it to 34w5d. Grace was 4lb13oz and Joy was 4lb9oz.

I'd been hospitalized for pre term labor since 26 wks for contrax, funneling, and shortening, so that played a huge part in my early delivery.

Darcie Elicia · November 2011

I had an emergency c/s at 37 weeks 2 days due to pre-e. My doctor would have let me go until 40 weeks! Indifferent

Temp6313048411121614 · November 2011

I made it to my scheduled c/s at 38w.

MrsLnt · November 2011

I had a scheduled c-section at 37w 1d but I think I would have gone a lot longer had they let me.

violaplayer · November 2011

Scheduled c section at 37w3d. I also probably could have gone longer if they had let me.

klr210 · November 2011

38 w 2 days at scheduled repeat c-section

marker56 · November 2011

induced at 34w4d due to pre-e/hellp syndrome. had an emergency c-section the next morning

ashes1010 · November 2011

I made it to my 38 week induction.

macchiatto · November 2011

The average is 36w (though I've seen some that says 35w but I've seen 36-36.5 weeks a lot more often) with twins. I delivered 3 hrs shy of 38w but it was a scheduled induction. I definitely could have made it another 3 hours if the induction had started later.

Good luck to you!

kaitley44 · November 2011

I made it to 38w5d. It is definitely possible!

natb22 · November 2011

38wk 2d via scheduled C sec. GL!

katezta · November 2011

38w2d and could have gone longer (no signs of labor), but had a scheduled csection. I carried my twins longer than my singleton.

blossomtg85 · November 2011

Induced at 38 weeks...sent home for a failed induction to avoid a section. Water broke at 38 weeks 6 days and I ended up with a section, anyway. Brett was 6.6 and Emma was 7. I guess they needed the extra week

I didn't realize our 37w6d twins were almost exactly a year apart. (And if I'm remembering right, they had the same combined birth weight? Mine were 6.7 and 6.10.) Mine were born 1/6/09.

jamdonut · November 2011

I had to deliver via c-section at 36w4d due to having cholestasis, otherwise we would have scheduled induction or cs at 38 weeks.

Yes! Our girls were 6.4 and 6.13. Crazy! : )

ade2be · November 2011

38w1d foe me which was my scheduled c-section

Fancy3Face · November 2011

36w1d due to PIH

babya2010 · November 2011

Induced at 36w6d due to mild pre-e. Delivered via emergency section at 37w exactly. DD was 6.2 and DS was 5.4. Had I not developed the mild pre-e I could have easily gone another week or 2, I had no signs of labor whatsoever. GL!

Twinluv · November 2011

At 36 weeks, my Dr scheduled me for a C-Section for 38 weeks. My water broke at 37-1/2 weeks. My baby A was 6.4 lbs and baby B was 5.5. Two very healthy babies. Yay for BR Yes

sara1014 · November 2011

38 weeks and 2 days for me. I was certain they'd come sooner - but they probably would have stayed put another few days had we not evicted them.

janjag · November 2011

I went into labor and had the girls c/s at 33w4d. That was way further than anyone thought I'd get, as I'd been on bedrest with funneling cervix for months.
