    You are not the only one!! I have not had my babies yet but i am thinking withing the next 2 weeks. It really depends on your Dr when you have your babies unless you go into labor. For me i will not be induced until 39 weeks.. I can not imagine going another 4-5 weeks..

    I'm 31 weeks...
    Honestly, the irrational side of me really wants to just be done. I'm out of breath, my clothes don't fit, I'm exhausted and I've either got a pulled muscle or they're separating from the abdominal wall. It's all very painful and I'm not really enjoying it. My doctor says she will do anything to prevent labor (if she can) until 36 weeks.

    However, the more rational side just says to wait it out. Every day helps! I know it's uncomfortable, but maybe it'll fly by quickly for us!

    Good luck! We're having boys and we're very excited! We have two sons already...a 7 year old and a 10 month old. :)

    I am 36wks and do not have a scheduled c-section til 39wks (Aug 28th). Everything hurts here too and has for quite awhile. I found out at 30wks that my OB wouldn't do the c-section til 39. I cried and cried. The whole lot of going 9 more weeks just killed me. I was so hoping for 37 or 38wks. Well here I am at 36wks....3wks to go. I don't think I am going to go into labor on my own either. Everyone seems to think that I will go in the next week or two, but I think these girls are going to hold off.

    It is tough but you can do it. My ribs feel like they are going to explode, I feel like an 80yr old woman trying to get in and out of bed. No matter what postion I am in...it hurts. I have a rash on my belly that itches like crazy too. The only place that I am comfy at is in my pool.

    Hang in there...you can do it and it will be here before you know it!

    Welcome to Twinstuff!! Congrats on your twins.

    Hang in there as long as you can. The longer they are in there, the better!!! Don't wish them out early!

    Hang in there, I know it is miserable. I delivered at 38w2d. At 35 weeks (after bedrest, hyperemesis and other misery) I thought there was no way I could keep going. My abdominal muscles were tearing off my ribs and strenum, never slept, heartburn, vomitting. At 37 weeks it got a bit better, more tolerable and then finally they came. I am so glad they baked as long as they did, no NICU or nursery time, nursing well and sleeping pretty well.
    The pain goes away within minutes of delivery.
    You can do it!!!!

    Hang in there. This part of the pregnancy is really hard because the babies are just so darn heavy. Try to rest as much as possible because it will be a good four months after the babies are born before you see a full nights sleep again. I worked up until 32 weeks as a teacher so I was up on my feet several hours a day. I had my babies at 35 weeks and 6 days, probably because I didn't rest properly or drink enough water. Although my babies didn't require NICU time, they had a lot of trouble keeping their body temps up. I know you have heard it a million times, but seriously, keep those babies in as long as possible.
