Re: Tuesday Twin Check In 4/21
Twin Type (Identical/Fraternal/etc): Fraternal boy/girl
Symptoms: swollen ankles, feet, and hands.
Appointment AW: We have a biophysical ultrasound in Thursday.
Questions/Comments/Complaints/Concerns: I am concerned with going into labor earlier than 38 weeks. My doctor started talking about C-section at our appt last week because baby A is breech and B is transverse so 38 weeks would be our goal to get to but I didn't even think about what if I go into labor earlier.

I think I'm going to miss my 2nd trimester cute bump and feeling them move around.
Di/Di girls
Achy back and cramps in my lower abdominal area. Waking up at 3 am on the dot to eat my yogurt and like 3 cutie tangerines
Dr. appointment this Thursday. I'll most likely be getting the steroid shot to speed up the girls' lung development since my cervix is thinning and softening. (Yeah me!)
@hailee8706 I am nervous too about going into labor early. My Dr. thinks I could go in as little as 2 weeks! I'll be about 35 weeks which is about average but it is still scary. I think the scariest part is having them go into the NICU.
Do any of you plan of breastfeeding? I just ordered the my brestfriend twin nursing pillow because it had awesome reviews. Anyone used one before? Just nervous to feed 2 at a time and that thing makes it look a whole lot easier!
I don't think there is much I will miss about being pregnant after I deliver. I love feeling them move but after I'll actually be holding them:)
Twin Type (Identical/Fraternal/etc): Fraternal team green
Symptoms: Nesting is out of control but I also feel like I could sleep forever - once I can get comfortable lol
Appointment AW: Ultrasound yesterday. Still in Ying yang position - A vertex B breech. Both measuring 3 lbs 4 oz. Had a hard time getting a measurement on A's head because it's already engaged.
Questions/Comments/Complaints/Concerns: Holy pelvic pain and pressure. I still can't get used to the swelling. My feet aren't swollen but every once in a whole my legs and feet go numb.
GTKY: What are you going to miss most about being pregnant after you deliver?
I actually like being pregnant lol chances are good that this might be our last pregnancy. I think I'll miss all of it - the anticipation of getting a peek of the little miracle on the ultrasounds, seeing how the baby is developing every week, feeling the kicks for the first time. Plus I have Ulcerative Colitis and I naturally go into remission when I'm pregnant LOL
Twin Type (Identical/Fraternal/etc): fraternal
Symptoms: Not much, just some Braxton hicks here and there.
Appointment AW: tomorrow!
Questions/Comments/Complaints/Concerns: baby A is head down and right at my cervix as head butting down there is so uncomfortable it makes me nervous because I have a shortened cervix. Anyone else have a baby super low?
GTKY: What are you going to miss most about being pregnant after you deliver? My husband doing most of the work around the house
Twin Type (Identical/Fraternal/etc): fraternal team green
Symptoms: groggy in the morning even though I sleep well, tired legs by the end of the day. But, really nothing major to complain about.
Appointment AW: growth ultrasound today. Baby A is transverse low in my pelvis, weighs 3 lbs 6 oz. Baby B is breech on my right side, weighs 3 lbs 12 oz. Will start NSTs weekly on Friday.
Questions/Comments/Complaints/Concerns: I'm doing very well with my post meal readings for GD, but I cannot figure out a pattern to my high fasting numbers. They are consistently between 95-100. Doc isn't rushing to medicate me, because my post meal numbers are pretty low. (1 hour ranges from 80-120, probably average 110). She's worried that if I take meds I may go hypoglycemic. She said to try NOT having a bedtime snack, but I get SO hungry in the evening. Also that seems to be opposite of what I've read. It's frustrating trying to figure out how to manage the fasting numbers.
GTKY: What are you going to miss most about being pregnant after you deliver?
Hmmmm, Probably the ability to sleep as long as I want.
Twin Type (Identical/Fraternal/etc): fraternal boy/ girl
Symptoms:
: just sore body, feeling like I got hit by a truck- Pressure on my cervix and having to pee every hour
Appointment AW: ultrasound and dr apt this Friday.
Questions/Comments/Complaints/Concerns:
feeling pretty good, just hoping they are both growing well. My belly is now at the point where it has taken over all of my pregnant gfs carrying singletons. Circus freak belly is full force.
GTKY: What are you going to miss most about being pregnant after you deliver?
Being able to sleep or have a long baths whenever I want. I'm trying to convince my husband that I need a nice Inground hot tub put in our yard. I am having twins after all
I don't think I can do no snack at night. I've tried SO many options, and honestly it doesn't matter if I have nuts, or cottage cheese, or cheese and crackers, or ice cream. The numbers are always right around the same.
Oh well, not too much longer to go!
