Congrats on 32 weeks!
I am also counting down until I can be done with work. I had planned on working until delivery, but I am not sure if that will be possible, given the way I'm feeling lately.

I have a scheduled c-section on 6/11, but that's 38.5 weeks. I will be amazed if I make it that long! Although it would be cool, since it's my dad's birthday.

Yeah, I think it all depends on the mom. Some moms are able to carry twins longer than others and it seems like they're really touchy lately about scheduling c-sections early. They'd rather put a date on the calendar and change it depending on circumstances than deliver earlier than absolutely necessary. I will be thrilled if they come at 37, but of course I want them to be as healthy as possible and no time in the NICU would be ideal.
I am feeling pretty rough from day to day. Taking things slow and just trying to take care of myself and be comfortable. DH is really great with our older boys and I am thankful that he does as much as he does with no complaints because I would not be able to handle it if he didn't. I think he feels bad about my humongous belly and is realizing how much pain I have.

Thanks, Gemini!
The way I look at it, this is the easy stuff. I'm way more scared about what happens once they're here! I can do lack of sleep for a few weeks, but if we're talking months, I'm going to be a mess! I just talked to someone at my company who just celebrated their twins' first birthday. He said it gets easier after the first year. I'm hoping it doesn't take us an entire year to figure things out.

Red rose you are more fertile after you've had a baby too! So you may well get pregnant right away! That happened to my friend, took her 6 years to conceive her first then she got pregnant when her first was 3 months old oops! lol

Great bump pic, FirstBean!
RedRose, you are one of the few ladies I know who are talking about TTC again while still pregnant! I don't know what your plans are, but my kids are about 3.5 years apart and I used to think it was a really big gap but it has worked out very nicely. My BFF had hers 2.5 years apart and she said it was difficult with such a small gap. Of course, if you have them really close together, they get to grow up being nice and close in age. And it definitely gets easier as they get older!
