To full term Laura? You could be around Christmas then if you're having twins couldn't you?! Xx

Yes, that would be in the unlikely event that I went full term. God help me if I do!

Yeah didn't think you would mind haha! Sorry for mentioning the 'C' word guys! What's the expected delivery for twins, is it around 32-36 weeks on average?

I don't know about you ladies but I think this pregnancy could go pretty quickly! I'm expecting I'll have my 12w scan roughly around mid/end July, then we go on holiday on the 29th. When we get back it will be my husbands birthday and a wedding at the end of August when I'll be around 17 weeks, then I start getting little bits of my Christmas shopping starting from September. Then in the countdown to Christmas I think it'll be a good distraction! It's all go from there isn't it! Xx
 
I'm just glad I won't be heavily pregnant during the summer! xxx
 
Yeah summer Birthdays are good but being huge and hot would be awful! We can hide in jumpers and wraps in the winter! December or January birthdays isn't what I would have chosen but I can't complain!
 
When I saw the consultant Monday she said 38 weeks max for non identicals and she said she'd be happy delivering naturally if I wanted or a c-section! Twinnie girls have you thought much about it? I've always been a stong believe in wanting to give birth naturally but with twinnies I want the safest for them and me and I worry if you give birth to the first what if something happened with the 2nd and I'd end up with a c-section anyway? X
 
My midwife said it's better with non identicals cos after one is born, it's not a mad rush to get the 2nd out as it has its own placenta so isn't starved of oxygen. I'd like to deliver naturally if possible.
 
Oh really that's interesting to know, I'm the same if I can I'd like to as long as it's safe as c section is such a big op and your limited for 6 weeks too. X

I'm the same in terms of always wanted a natural birth, but now that it's twins, I just want whatever is safest. I've been told that if both are head down, it could be ok but the second could turn and get stuck, and if neither are head down, there's no chance of natural. I am probably likely to opt for a c-section, although the idea of it terrifies me.

That's exactly that! If the 2nd baby turns then it can complicate & even like you the idea of a c section is quite scary as its such a big operation I'd rather op for an elective planned rather than end up with an emergency c section! Hubby & I have always said we'll go with whatever the experts say is best for the babies and me X
 
Hi all. Sorry for being quiet recently lately. I have been feeling really tired and just generally not well. I haven't actually been sick, just a constant feeling of tiredness and no energy and feeling faint. I'm constantly hungry, when am not sure what I fancy eating. I keep questioning myself whether I'm ill or if it's just in my head. I've been off work as I can't face the drive it, sitting at my desk etc. I feel stuck at home, where I can only lay in bed or sit on sofa as I have no energy. I feel like I'm losing my mind. Feeling really fed up and can't see when I'm going to feel myself again. Sorry for miserable post xx
 
Apologies for tri hopping!!

Hey princessp you are describing exactly how I was hun! Both last pregnancy and this one.
I actually dragged myself to work but I was no use to anyone to be honest. It's most deffo not in your head I can promise you!
You will start feeling better, I promise. I'm starting to get my energy back now and I can actually concentrate on things at work. It's horrible but once you come out the other side you'll prob forget how bad it ever was. The hungry but not knowing what to eat still gets me a bit and I hate it, I love my food!!
lol xxx

That's exactly how I was feeling last week, apparently a lot of people find week 10 to be the worst, and then week 11 came and it was like a switch had been flipped. I'm still pretty sleepy mid afternoon but I finally feel like I can actually do things. You should hopefully be feeling much better, very soon. Hang in there!

I'm feeling the same. Last week was awful. The sickness has gotten better now, but I'm still tired all the time and struggle to focus. Eating is a chore, but if I don't eat I get really, really hungry and nauseous. Feeling pretty useless at work but feel bad about staying home.
