Who had a smooth pregnancy with twins?

[hollandlop]

I know that twins or multiples pregnancy is high risk. And a lot of complications will occur during the pregnancy.

I am having some complications myself like hyperthyroid and also gestational diabetes. It is so frustrating because i am 28 weeks pregnant right now.

I just want to know who had a smooth pregnancy with no problems at all?

And I heard it is easy to get preeclampsia when you have twins and you need to be hospitalized for the rest of your pregnancy? That is so scary!!!

i had accupuncture during the first 20 or so wks of my pregnancy. and I had almost no nausea, absolutely no  back pain or any kind of discomfort. but at around 22wks having tight tummy all the time so was taken off work and at 25wks was on bed rest for being 1.5cm dilated. but no issues after that, del was a day short of 38 wks. day before del i had one ankle swelling and severe heartburn.

I had no bed rest, and no complications.  I carried my twins until 37 and a half weeks.  I felt just like I did when I was pregnant with my first child ( a singleton pregnancy), but I was just a lot bigger in the tummy, and so more tired.  Only crazy thing that happened was at the delivery.  I delivered one vaginally, but had to have a crash c-section with my second son.  But everything was fine, and the boys were great!  No NICU time, and we all came home together from the hospital!

I'm 36wks  pregnant with B/G twins and I haven't had any problems. My pregnacy was great. Right now in the beginning of my nineth month I just started to feel miserable and heavy. It's not that bad because i'm still working everyday.

i'm curious about this as well! I'm 12 wks w/ twins & I was put on bedrest twice already for unexplained bleeding. I'm just worried this is a pre-cursor to more complications in the future.

My pregnancy was fine until 24 weeks when I started to dialate. I was put on bedrest until I went into labor at 34 weeks. Other than that and normal pregnancy woes it was very easy given I was carrying 2 babies and not 1.

I did the gestational diabetes test and everything was normal. I worked out until I was 24 weeks and ate VERY healthy until my 3rd trimester (when my big mac cravings started) which I still ate tons of fruits, veggies and a TON of water.
