Congrats hun! And call me crazy but I do envy you. I'd love to have twins lol Good luck though. As for staying stress free, just stay positive and focus on things that help you relax. Baths, books, art, etc whatever floats your boat basically :)

My midwife thinks I may b having twins cuz I have been in maternity clothes since 8 weeks. I find out in a week n a half at 12 weeks how many there r.  I have had 3 MCs so I would b in the same boat.  My midwife said that as long as u take care of urself and eat right u can go full term with twins. She knows someone who went 41 weeks with twins.  Congrats and take care!

High risk and twins they may suggest delivering c-section, with twins there's alot that can go wrong during labor naturally, but women do it. Congratulations, and good luck!

It depends how well the baby's do coz sometimes one does better than the other. They'l do scans more often to check them and there weight, but if everythings ok they wont induce you before 37 weeks. They might do c-section coz if the first baby is born naturally the second doesn't always get in the right position. Congrats though I'd love twins :-)

Alot of people was telling me that but im so small, im 130lbs n 5'4 so people was like im going to have the babies at 7 or 8 months. Do they usually do c-sections or natural?

I think twins usually go early around 34 35 weeks. But my cousin had her twin boys at 38 weeks. They induced het because they were so big. So you never know they could go full term. You just have to stay positive and not stress for your lil beans. Congradulations
