Mummies/mommies of twins or multiples?

[Helen]

Wow! That's fantastic. Lucky you!

Hello Everyone!

Great to meet everyone here, especially Moms of Multiples like me. I have triplets, all boys. I love them dearly.

BTW, Helen, your twins are sooo cute.

Found out a few weeks ago that I will be having twins in September 08. I have no idea how the hell we will cope in an upstairs 1 bed flat but im sure we will manage. Any pearls of wisdom about twin pregnancy would be greatly recieved.

Congratulations! I can't think of any great pearls of wisdom other than you get loads of fuss made of you when people know you're carrying two about

You'll probably deliver before 40 weeks (mine were by planned c-section at 36+6). You'll get more scans in the later stages. If I remember right it was every 4 weeks from 20 weeks and then at some point it went to every 2 weeks which is hugely reassuring. It is possible to deliver naturally but you stand a higher chance of having a section than singleton Mummies.

Have you posted a scan pic up?

I was able to start feeling my twins @ 11 weeks. Feeling my twins was confusing because at times I got scared I was only feeling 1 and it turned out that I was feeling both in the same area. My twins had seperate sacs and placentas. It was cool when they got bigger because you could see each one moving.

I used to love it when one kicked out and the other one kicked back. I started feeling things at 16 weeks and most of the time I could tell who was who. Mom2pne is right though, when you think you haven't felt one it can be pretty scary.
