36+ weeks and expecting twins?

Anyone out there remaining on this forum that is 36+ weeks and expecting twins? I am driving myself nuts with the waiting and discomfort. My MD won't schedule c section before 38 weeks. Could use a kindred spirit...

I'm still pregnant with twins!!!!  I'm 32 wks 5 days and the girls seem to be very comfortable in my belly- no complications.  My OB also will not schedule a c-section until after 38 weeks.  We are trying to schedule it for 12/15, 12/16 or 12/17.  The girls are getting heavier and making it really hard to breathe.   I hope you are doing well.  Hang in there- the longer the twins cook the better they will be- or so I keep telling myself.

That is soo great that you are soo far along especially with twins. I gave birth last saturday at 32 wks 6 days due to a disease called fatty liver and is potentially life threatening. The babies are in the NICU just gaining weight but I REALLY would have given anything to carry them longer. Best of luck to you & the babies:)

i'm impressed you have an MD smart enough to wait...so many take twins too premature.  
you will go into labor when your babies are ready to come
the longer they cook, the bigger and stronger they will be.
hang in there :)
